FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Chuck 70 De Luxe Squared High-Tops have a standard width. While the lace-up system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug, especially with the squared toe design. It's recommended to try them on if possible or check detailed sizing charts.

How do I clean the croc-embossed leather version?

For the croc-embossed leather, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stains or deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for textured leather. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

What is the main difference between these and classic Chuck Taylors?

The primary difference is the 'De Luxe Squared' design, which features a distinctly squared-off toe box, offering a more modern and edgy silhouette compared to the classic rounded toe of traditional Chuck Taylors. They also often include upgraded materials and detailing.

Are these trainers good for running or athletic activities?

No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for running or high-impact athletic activities.

What does 'De Luxe' signify in the product name?

'De Luxe' generally refers to enhanced detailing, premium materials, and a higher quality finish compared to standard models, elevating the overall aesthetic and feel of the shoe.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While durable, canvas versions are not waterproof. Leather versions offer some resistance, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Using a water-repellent spray can provide additional protection.

What UK size is equivalent to a US women's size 9?

A US women's size 9 typically corresponds to a UK size 7.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel difficult to adjust.

Ensure the eyelets are clear of debris. If the laces are old, consider replacing them with new ones.

Initial discomfort around the squared toe.

This is often due to the unique shape. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size and width.

Outer sole shows signs of wear.

Regular wear will naturally cause some sole wear. For significant wear, consider professional resoling services if the shoe structure is still sound.

Leather upper scuffing or creasing.

For minor scuffs, use a leather cleaner or eraser. For creases, condition the leather regularly. Avoid bending the shoe sharply in the same spot repeatedly.
