FAQs
How do I know if I have the right size?
Converse Chuck 70s can sometimes run a bit larger than standard sizing. It's recommended to check reviews for sizing advice or try them on if possible. Many suggest going down half a size.
Are these waterproof?
No, the Converse Chuck 70 Low 'Navy' are made of canvas and rubber and are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
It is not recommended to machine wash Converse Chuck 70s. Machine washing can damage the adhesives and materials, leading to potential separation or material degradation. Handwashing is the preferred method.
What is the main difference between Chuck 70 and standard Chuck Taylor All-Stars?
The Chuck 70 is a premium version featuring higher quality materials, a more durable build with thicker canvas, enhanced cushioning (OrthoLite insole), glossier rubber sidewall, and often features vintage-inspired details like two-tone stitching.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The fit of Chuck 70s is generally considered medium width. While they can accommodate some wider feet as they break in, they may not be ideal for individuals with significantly wide feet without trying them on first.
What is the best way to clean the white rubber sole?
A magic eraser or a melamine sponge works effectively on scuffs and dirt on the white rubber parts. Alternatively, a paste of baking soda and water applied with a toothbrush can also help lift stains.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
Canvas shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Soles appear to be separating slightly.
This can sometimes happen with heavy wear. For minor separation, a strong adhesive suitable for rubber and canvas can be used. For significant separation, professional repair might be needed.
Color fading from sun exposure.
Store shoes away from direct sunlight when not in use. If fading has occurred, it is generally irreversible.

Care:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains on the canvas, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with a cloth, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
