FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Converse Chuck 70 generally runs about a half size large for some people. It is recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing charts. This specific UK 8.5 is based on standard Converse sizing.

How do I clean the Egret canvas upper?

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mixture of mild soap and cold water. Gently scrub the canvas and wipe away with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

It is not recommended to machine wash or machine dry these sneakers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What is the difference between Chuck 70 and standard Chuck Taylor All-Stars?

The Chuck 70 features higher quality materials, a thicker rubber sole, more cushioning (OrthoLite insole), and a vintage-inspired design compared to the standard Chuck Taylor All-Star.

Is this a limited edition release?

This model is part of a collaboration between Converse and COMME des GARCONS PLAY, which often indicates a limited production run. Availability may vary.

How durable is the red sole?

The rubber sole is designed for durability, similar to other Chuck 70 models. However, like all rubber soles, it can show scuffs and wear over time with regular use.

What is the return policy for these sneakers?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific return policy of the store where you purchased the sneakers for details on exchanges or returns.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit on first wear

Wear the shoes around the house with socks for a short period. The canvas will naturally mold to your foot over time. Avoid wearing them outside until they feel comfortable.

Dirt or scuff marks on the canvas

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a soft-bristled brush can be used. Ensure to wipe away any residue.

Discoloration on the red sole

Use a damp cloth with a mild cleaning solution or a specialized rubber sole cleaner. For scuffs, a magic eraser can often remove them effectively.

Laces become dirty

Remove the laces and wash them by hand with mild soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a delicate cycle.
