Full details

The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70 is designed for adults seeking a blend of iconic basketball heritage and modern durability. This version improves upon the classic design with superior cushioning, higher rubber foxing, and a more accommodating toe box for extended wear. While these leather trainers offer excellent style and resilience, they do require a brief break-in period to reach their peak comfort level.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

While the leather upper is more water-resistant than canvas, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.

How do these differ from regular Chuck Taylors?

The 70s models feature higher rubber foxing, extra cushioning, a roomier toe box, and thicker, more durable materials.

Do I need to size up or down?

Most users find these run slightly large compared to other athletic brands; sticking to your standard UK size is usually recommended.

How should I clean the leather?

Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away surface dirt. You can also use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff after initial wear.

Leather requires a break-in period; wear them for shorter sessions with thicker socks to gently soften the material.

Rubber foxing showing signs of discoloration.

Clean the foxing with a mixture of mild dish soap and warm water, or use a foam shoe cleaner designed for rubber.

Laces becoming loose during the day.

Ensure the laces are threaded through the tongue loop to prevent shifting, and use a double knot for extra security.

  • Versatile design that works for casual or smart-casual settings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Converse Chuck 70 trainers last, keep them away from direct heat sources when drying, as extreme heat can crack the leather or warp the rubber. For regular maintenance, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. If you encounter scuffs on the rubber foxing, a standard magic eraser or a mild soap solution works effectively. As these shoes are constructed from leather, avoid submerging them in water. Store them in a cool, dry place and ensure they are kept away from direct sunlight to prevent the black and blue colourway from fading over time.
