FAQs

Are these true to size?

Converse sizing can sometimes run a little large. We recommend checking the official Converse size guide or trying them on if possible. For this specific 'De Luxe Heel' model, the fit around the foot should be similar to other Chuck 70s.

What is the height of the 'De Luxe Heel'?

> Info needed: Specific heel height in cm/inches.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber sole provides traction, the canvas upper is not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and your feet.

How do the Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel differ from regular Chuck Taylors?

The Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel features a significant elevated sole for added height and style, and benefits from the premium construction of the Chuck 70 line, which includes heavier canvas, enhanced cushioning, and more durable details compared to classic Chuck Taylors.

Are they comfortable for all-day wear?

Thanks to the premium Chuck 70 cushioning (often OrthoLite), they offer improved comfort over classic Converse. However, the elevated sole might require some adjustment, and individual comfort can vary.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are standard and can be easily replaced with any laces of a similar length and style.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel unstable or difficult to walk in

Ensure laces are tied securely for maximum ankle support. Give yourself time to adjust to the elevated sole, as it can change your gait slightly. If discomfort persists, check your sizing.

Canvas appears dirty or stained

Gently clean the canvas with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a soft-bristled brush or a specialized canvas cleaner. Air dry completely.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by air trapped between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder under the insole if it continues.

Rubbing or discomfort around the ankle

Ensure the high-top collar isn't too tight. Wear socks that extend above the shoe collar to provide a protective barrier. A break-in period is often needed for new high-top sneakers.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Gently rub the canvas and rubber areas. For tough stains, a soft brush can be used on the canvas. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material or color.
  • Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed separately or replaced if worn out.
  • Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material degradation and color fading. Do not put them in a dryer.

  • Deep Cleaning: For a deeper clean, specialized sneaker cleaning kits are available and recommended for canvas materials and rubber soles.
