FAQs

Are these suitable for wide feet?

Yes, the roomier toe box of the 70s model provides more space than standard Chuck Taylor models.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and cause the rubber foxing to peel.

Do these run true to size?

Chuck 70s generally run slightly large compared to standard athletic shoes; many users prefer to size down by half a size.

How do I keep the white rubber looking bright?

Gently wipe the foxing with a mixture of baking soda and mild detergent using an old toothbrush.

Are these appropriate for athletic use?

While based on basketball history, they are primarily lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for high-impact sports.

Troubleshooting

Canvas becoming stiff or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for shorter durations initially to allow the canvas and footbed to mold to your foot shape.

Scuff marks on rubber foxing

Use a white pencil eraser or a melamine sponge dampened with water to gently buff away black scuffs.

Laces constantly coming untied

Double-knot the laces or swap them for higher-friction cotton laces if the factory ones are too slick.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior arch support compared to classic Chuck Taylors
  • Timeless aesthetic that works with any outfit
  • Durable rubber foxing resists wear and tear
  • Spacious toe box design improves comfort

Cons

  • Slightly heavier than standard All Star models
  • Requires a short break-in period for the canvas
  • Limited to neutral grey styling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Chuck 70s remain in top condition, start by ensuring you have the correct size; the roomier toe box may mean you can stay true to size or go down half a size depending on your preference for a snug fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging in water or using harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the rubber from warping.
  • Laces: For best results, hand-wash laces separately in soapy water to maintain their brightness.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and yellowing of the rubber soles.
