FAQs
Do these shoes run true to size?
No, Converse Chuck 70s typically run about a half-size to a full-size large. It is recommended to try a half-size down from your usual footwear.
Are these suitable for sports?
While originally designed as basketball shoes, the 70s model is now intended for lifestyle and casual wear and lacks the modern cushioning required for intense athletic sports.
How do I clean the rubber toe cap?
You can clean the rubber toe cap easily with a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, this model is designed to be unisex, suitable for both men and women.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted from high-quality, durable cotton canvas.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, you should never put your Converse in the dryer, as the high heat can damage the rubber and cause the canvas to shrink or warp.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose
Consider using an insole for better volume control or try a thicker pair of socks.
Canvas becoming stained
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam and a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris.
Rubbing at the heel
Ensure the laces are tightened adequately and consider using heel liners until the canvas breaks in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For initial setup, ensure you lace the shoes to your preferred tension, leaving enough room for natural foot expansion throughout the day. To keep your trainers looking their best, spot clean the canvas material with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing to prevent damage to the rubber soles and glue bonds. If the canvas becomes soaked, air dry them naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber components. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent yellowing of the rubber and preserve the integrity of the materials.
