Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 1970s Hi Unisex High-Top Lifestyle Sneaker

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 1970s Hi — The Original, Elevated

The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 1970s Hi is not a revision of the Chuck Taylor — it is a return to the version that existed before cost-cutting changed the formula. The Chuck 70 reissues the construction standards of the 1970s original: a heavier, more durable canvas upper, a thicker rubber foxing tape, a more substantial cupsole, and a higher-cut ankle collar that provides genuine support rather than the suggestion of it. The result is a Chuck Taylor that wears better, ages better, and feels better underfoot than the standard version — while remaining unmistakably, irreducibly itself.

Design & Upper

• Premium heavyweight canvas upper — a thicker, more durable canvas construction that references the 1970s original specification
• High-top silhouette with a taller ankle collar for genuine ankle support and a more structured, intentional look
• Medial star patch and All Star ankle patch in tonal or contrast finish — the Chuck Taylor's defining details, retained in full
• Rubber foxing tape with a more substantial profile than the standard Chuck Taylor — a key visual and structural differentiator

Comfort & Sole

• Vulcanized rubber cupsole — the construction method that has defined Converse since 1917, providing flexibility and a flat, stable platform
• OrthoLite® sockliner for cushioned, breathable all-day comfort — an upgrade over the standard Chuck Taylor's insole
• Flat rubber outsole with a clean herringbone tread pattern for grip on a variety of surfaces
• Lightweight vulcanized construction that softens and flexes naturally with wear

Fit & Sizing

• Unisex sizing — available in EU 35–44 (including EU 36.5, 38.5, 40.5, 42.5)
• Female sizing: EU 35–39 | Male sizing: EU 40–44
• Runs true to size; the canvas upper softens and molds to the foot with wear — the shoe improves over time

Style Notes

The Chuck 70 Hi is a shoe that has been worn by everyone from basketball players to punk bands to fashion editors — and it has never needed to change to stay relevant. The high-top silhouette works with wide-leg trousers, straight-leg denim, shorts, or skirts. Tuck the laces, leave them loose, or swap them out entirely. The Chuck 70 Hi is the rare sneaker that is genuinely indifferent to how you wear it — it works regardless.
