Full details

FAQs
Are the Chuck 70 Lows true to size?
Generally, the Chuck 70 line runs slightly larger than standard street shoes. Many users find sizing down half a size provides the best fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the glue and rubber adhesion. Hand cleaning is much safer for the long-term integrity of the shoe.
How do these differ from the standard Chuck Taylor All Star?
The Chuck 70 features a heavier-grade canvas, a more cushioned footbed, a thicker rubber midsole, and more durable stitching.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the Chuck 70 Low is a unisex design suitable for all genders, following standard adult sizing.
Is the grey colourway easy to keep clean?
The grey canvas is more forgiving than white canvas, but it still benefits from regular spot cleaning and fabric protection sprays.
Troubleshooting
Canvas becoming stiff after storage
Wear the shoes for short periods around the house; the heat from your feet will soften the canvas fibres naturally.
Scuff marks on the rubber foxing
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a magic sponge dampened with water to gently buff away black scuffs from the midsole.
Insole comfort feeling reduced
If the original Ortholite insole wears down over time, it is removable and can be replaced with a thin third-party comfort insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Chuck 70s last, it is recommended to treat the canvas with a fabric protector spray before the first wear to repel dirt and moisture. Compatibility-wise, these low-top sneakers work well with various sock styles, from no-show liners for a cleaner look to crew socks for a more relaxed aesthetic. To clean, wipe the rubber midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap; for the canvas upper, allow mud to dry and gently brush it away before using a soft-bristled brush with cold water and mild detergent. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the rubber from cracking or the canvas from warping.
