FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Converse Chuck 70s typically run slightly large; many users prefer to order a half-size down from their standard athletic shoe size.
How do I maintain the black canvas?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt and spot clean with a damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that might cause fading.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are designed for optimal comfort, but they can be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The canvas upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions to preserve the material and appearance.
How should I store my Chuck 70s?
Store them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent the canvas from fading.
Troubleshooting
Canvas feels stiff out of the box
Wear the shoes for short intervals at home to allow the cotton canvas to soften and mold to your foot shape.
Insole comfort is lacking
Ensure the stock cushioned insole is lying flat inside the shoe; if it shifted, remove and reseat it properly.
Difficulty cleaning white outsoles
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a mixture of baking soda and water with a toothbrush to restore the white colour.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Chuck 70s, ensure you lace them snugly to your preference, as the stiffer canvas needs to conform to your foot shape over time. For care, keep the canvas clean by spot-cleaning with mild soap and a soft cloth; avoid machine washing to prevent the glue from degrading or the fabric from shrinking. Ensure your feet are measured correctly, as Converse sizes can run differently than standard athletic brands. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew on the natural cotton fibers.
