Product Information

Full details

The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lugged High is designed for urban explorers and fashion-conscious individuals who value a blend of rugged durability and modern aesthetic. Its key benefit lies in the elevated, aggressive lugged outsole that offers superior traction, though the specialized nylon ripstop upper may require a different break-in period compared to traditional canvas Chuck Taylors. This unisex trainer delivers a bold, monochromatic silhouette that integrates high-performance materials like ghillie lacing and reflective accents into a classic high-top design.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

They are made of water-resistant nylon ripstop, which handles light moisture well, but they are not fully waterproof.

Is the sizing consistent with other Converse shoes?

They generally follow standard Converse sizing, but the nylon material may feel slightly more structured, so ensure you have enough room for thick socks.

Can I wear these for hiking?

While the lugged sole offers better traction than standard trainers, they are designed for urban environments rather than technical hiking trails.

How do I maintain the black colour?

Keep them out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use to prevent UV-induced fading of the nylon.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, most Chuck Taylor models feature a removable insole, allowing you to swap in custom orthotics if needed.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on the shoe due to nylon stiffness

Loosen the ghillie laces significantly before inserting your foot, then tighten gradually from the toe up.

Accumulation of dirt in the deep lugs of the outsole

Use a stiff-bristled brush once the dirt has dried to dislodge debris from the tread pattern.

Reflective stitching appearing dull

Clean the surface gently with a damp cloth; the reflective material is embedded in the thread and should regain brightness once surface dust is removed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable nylon construction resists wear and tear better than traditional fabric
  • Aggressive lugged outsole provides excellent grip on various urban terrains
  • Reflective detailing enhances safety and adds a unique visual flair
  • Unisex design makes them highly versatile for different style preferences

Cons

  • Nylon material may feel stiffer initially compared to canvas models
  • The lugged sole adds significant weight compared to standard Chuck Taylor models
  • High-top design may limit ankle mobility for those used to low-top trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shoes maintain their look and performance, follow these guidelines:

  • Breaking In: Given the nylon construction, wear them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the material to adapt to your foot shape.
  • Lacing: Utilize the ghillie lacing system to customize the pressure across the bridge of your foot; avoid overtightening to maintain comfort.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the nylon upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the lugged sole adhesive and reflective stitching.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the black nylon from fading and to maintain the integrity of the rubber outsole.
