FAQs

Are the Converse Chuck 70s Hi true to size?

Generally, Chuck 70s tend to run slightly large. It is often recommended to go down half a size from your usual sneaker size, especially if you have a narrower foot. However, sizing can vary, so trying them on or consulting a size chart is advisable.

What is the main difference between Chuck 70s and standard Chuck Taylors?

Chuck 70s are a premium version of the classic Chuck Taylor All Star. They feature higher quality canvas, a heavier rubber sole, enhanced cushioning with an OrthoLite® insole, and vintage details like higher foxing tape and stitching on the tongue.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the canvas upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and discomfort.

How do I care for the green canvas material?

Gently clean the canvas with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally.

What does 'Hi' in Chuck 70s Hi refer to?

'Hi' refers to the high-top silhouette of the sneaker, meaning it covers the ankle.

Is the green color likely to fade?

Like most dyed textiles, the color may fade slightly over time with repeated exposure to sunlight and washing. Proper care and avoiding excessive sun exposure can help maintain the vibrancy.

What material is the insole made of?

The insoles are made with OrthoLite® technology, known for its cushioning and comfort properties.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Loosen the laces, especially around the ankle, to create more room.

Canvas material appears dirty or stained.

Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, use a specialized canvas cleaner or a magic eraser on the rubber parts.

Laces are constantly coming undone.

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing them with different textured laces that may hold better.

Slight color transfer from the green canvas.

This is normal for dyed canvas. Ensure socks are dark or of a similar color to avoid noticeable transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials when wet.
