FAQs

What makes the Feng Chen Wang x Converse Chuck 70 2-in-1 unique?

The '2-in-1' design features two distinct halves of the shoe with different colors and textures, and a graphic that mimics cracked concrete, offering a deconstructed and artistic aesthetic.

What materials are used in this sneaker?

The shoe is primarily constructed from premium leather on both halves, with a rubber sole, consistent with the Chuck 70's build.

How should I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner, and always test on a small, hidden area first. Allow to air dry away from heat.

Is this shoe comfortable for daily wear?

Yes, it is built on the comfortable Chuck 70 silhouette, making it suitable for regular wear, though the unique design might require a brief break-in period.

What is the 'concrete illusion graphic'?

It's a visual design element that resembles cracked concrete, giving the impression that the sneaker is encased within a concrete block.

Does it come with extra laces?

Typically, Converse collaborations come with standard laces. Please check the product packaging for specific inclusions.

What is the release date of this collaboration?

This particular collaboration was released on October 13, 2021.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on one half of the shoe.

This is often an intended part of the '2-in-1' design. However, if you notice excessive or premature wear, ensure you are cleaning and caring for both leather sections equally.

Leather creasing or stiffness.

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize stiffness, wear the shoes regularly and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Conditioning the leather periodically can also help.

Color transfer from one half to the other.

While unlikely with quality materials, test any cleaning solutions first. If color transfer occurs, try a specialized leather cleaner for the affected area.

Discomfort or fit issues.

Ensure you have the correct size. The Chuck 70 fit is generally consistent, but the unique construction might feel different. Break them in gradually.
