FAQs

Are these the same as regular Chuck Taylor All Stars?

No, the Chuck 70 is a premium re-crafting of the original 1970s design, featuring heavier canvas, thicker rubber, and superior OrthoLite cushioning.

Does the camo pattern fade?

Like any dyed fabric, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight may eventually fade the print; store them indoors to maintain the color.

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash Chuck 70s as it can compromise the adhesives and the integrity of the canvas structure.

Do I need to size up?

The Chuck 70 generally fits true to size, but the inclusion of the OrthoLite insole makes them feel more snug than standard versions.

Are they suitable for the gym?

While they are sturdy, they lack the technical support and ventilation required for high-intensity training or running.

What is the inspiration behind this camo print?

This design is inspired by the first archival use of camouflage print on Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars, which occurred in 1983.

Troubleshooting

Canvas becoming stiff or uncomfortable

Wear them with thicker socks for short periods to gently stretch the canvas and loosen the material.

Scuff marks on the white rubber foxing

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle scrubbing sponge with mild dish soap to lift dirt.

Laces slipping or coming untied

Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets correctly and consider a double knot if the flat cotton laces feel loose.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior durability due to heavy-grade canvas construction
  • Enhanced arch and heel comfort via OrthoLite insoles
  • Classic 1970s aesthetic with iconic design cues
  • Versatile style suitable for casual and semi-casual outfits

Cons

  • Canvas material can be stiff initially and requires a break-in period
  • Limited water resistance inherent to cotton canvas materials
  • Less arch support compared to dedicated high-performance sports sneakers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Converse Chuck 70 trainers last, consider these tips:

  1. Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the heavy-duty canvas and rubber to soften to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas using a soft cloth, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the glue and internal structures.
  3. Rubber Maintenance: Keep the white rubber foxing clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth or a melamine sponge to remove scuffs.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the camo print from fading over time.
  5. Sizing: These models follow standard UK sizing; if you plan to wear thick winter socks, ensure you account for the internal cushioning space.
