FAQs

Does the DRKSTAR fit like a regular Chuck 70?

Yes, it shares the same base construction as the Chuck 70, but the unique aesthetic features may change the internal feel slightly.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the signature rubber midsole and the shape of the elongated tongue.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from durable, high-quality cotton.

Are these shoes unisex?

While listed with specific gender attributes, the silhouette is widely considered unisex due to the collaborative design.

How do I style the elongated tongue?

The tongue is a design feature meant to be visible; it can be worn over the front of the ankle or tucked partially to show off the TURBODRK branding.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe cap

Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape of the rounded rubber toe cap.

Tongue sliding or bunching

Adjust the lace tightness through the eyelets near the top to better secure the elongated tongue in place.

Dirt on white rubber midsole

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a melamine sponge to gently wipe away scuffs from the distorted midsole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinct, avant-garde design language
  • High-quality cotton material for long-term durability
  • Iconic collaboration aesthetic
  • Versatile low-top profile

Cons

  • Unconventional tongue shape may feel different from standard sneakers
  • Specific design elements require curated styling
  • Limited availability for specific sizes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this shoe is made of high-quality cotton, it is best to treat the upper with a water and stain repellent spray before the first use. To keep the white contrast stitching and the signature toe cap looking fresh, clean them periodically with a soft-bristled brush and mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the rubber elements and the reinforced structural components. For sizing, these follow standard Converse Chuck 70 sizing, which typically runs slightly large; it is recommended to consider this when selecting your UK size.
