FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and the structure of the shoe. Spot cleaning is the safest method.

Do these provide good arch support?

Yes, this model includes an integrated arch cushion designed to provide more support than a traditional flat-soled canvas shoe.

Are these true to size?

Converse Chuck 70s generally fit slightly larger than standard sneakers. You may consider trying a half-size down if you prefer a snug fit.

Can I wear these for running?

No, these are casual lifestyle trainers and do not provide the stability, cushioning, or impact protection required for running.

How do I prevent the canvas from fading?

Keep the shoes out of prolonged direct sunlight when not in use and avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach when cleaning the fabric.

What is the benefit of the silver eyelets?

The aluminium eyelets are more durable than plastic or simple fabric holes and help prevent the lacing area from tearing under tension.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the white rubber toe cap

Use a damp melamine sponge (magic eraser) to gently scrub the rubber surface until the scuffs disappear.

Laces becoming frayed or difficult to tighten

Replace the standard cotton laces with a high-quality wax-coated or synthetic blend pair to improve slide through the eyelets.

Developing odors inside the shoe

Remove the insoles if possible and sprinkle a small amount of foot powder, or use an antimicrobial shoe spray once the shoes are completely dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic retro style that pairs well with most outfits
  • Enhanced interior comfort thanks to the added arch cushion
  • Antibacterial lining helps maintain freshness
  • Lightweight construction suitable for all-day wear

Cons

  • Canvas material can be difficult to clean if stained
  • Less supportive than modern specialized athletic trainers
  • High-top design may take longer to lace up

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure the cotton laces are threaded through the silver aluminium eyelets comfortably without overtightening, as this can compress the canvas. Since these are unisex, ensure you refer to the UK sizing guide for your specific foot measurements. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing, which can damage the glue bonds and warp the rubber. Instead, spot clean the cotton upper with a soft brush and mild soap. For the rubber soles, a damp cloth or a magic eraser can effectively remove scuffs and dirt. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the rubber to crack over time.
