Product Information

Full details

The Converse All Star Hi 70 S trainers are designed for kids who value a blend of heritage style and everyday comfort. These iconic high-top shoes offer a premium upgrade to the classic basketball silhouette, featuring durable construction and enhanced cushioning. While they provide excellent support for active days, it is important to note that the high-top design requires slightly more time to lace up compared to low-top alternatives.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can compromise the vulcanized rubber sole and the canvas material; spot cleaning is recommended.

Do these shoes provide arch support?

The OrthoLite insole provides basic cushioning and comfort, but they do not have medical-grade arch support.

What is the difference between the All Star and the Chuck 70?

The Chuck 70 features premium canvas, a thicker sole, high foxing tape, and improved cushioning compared to the standard model.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the canvas from fading or the rubber from yellowing.

Are these suitable for sports?

While they originated as basketball shoes, modern performance footwear is better suited for high-intensity sports; these are best for casual use.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slips to the side during walking

Ensure the laces are threaded through the integrated tongue loop to utilize the winged tongue stitching.

Shoe feels too tight over the bridge of the foot

Loosen the lacing pattern at the mid-foot section to allow for more volume and better circulation.

Canvas becomes dirty or stained

Spot clean with a soft-bristle brush and a mixture of mild detergent and water, then air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable materials built for everyday use
  • Enhanced comfort compared to standard models thanks to OrthoLite technology
  • Versatile design that pairs well with various outfits
  • Reinforced construction with high foxing tape

Cons

  • High-top silhouette can be more restrictive than low-top styles
  • Lacing process takes longer due to the high profile
  • Canvas material may show dirt more easily than leather options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, pull the laces loose before inserting the foot, then tighten from the toe up toward the ankle for a customized fit. These trainers pair best with casual streetwear, including denim and athletic joggers. To maintain their appearance, wipe away surface dirt with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, as the high heat and agitation can damage the vulcanized glue and structural integrity of the canvas. Air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
