Converse - The All-Things 'Converse Sneakers/Trainers' Thread

[Jetsetgirl]

I love my black Converse. They look cute with Jeans and Jeansminis. I need a new pair in pink!

I got a pair of polka dot converses a few weeks ago, I stil havent even worn them yet.

I'd like a basic black pair or perhaps even navy... they seem perfect for uni and running around on weekends!

don't want to rain on the parade
but one of my biggest purchase-regrets would be my only Converse trainers:
high-tops, sparkly pink with the fold-down top that snaps at different heights - showing multicoloured lining.

terribly terribly cute yes...
but
terribly impractical - offers no support - even with insoles - the material isn't pure cloth & leaves my feet stinky even though i swear socks... and my feet aren't prone to be stinky - ever. i only wear them if i don't expect rain or if i don't expect to walk a lot = hardly ever.

after wearing only 6times, started to tear
total waste of $170 Canadian

trying to figure out how to get rid of them/sell them cheap.

I've bought a pair a babyblue ones a while ago and I them!
They're really comfy and you can wear them with alomst everything...
You can even wear them on a night out with a chic top and jeans and It'll still look casual but elegant...I really like the casual, easy-going but also rock look you can have with them...I know quite a people who are wearing them and I prefer them to Nike Sneakers or something like that though I must admit I wearing a lot of really really different shoes but Converse will always be one of my faves!

I love my Converse allstars... I'm kinda collecting them, right now I have 7 pairs I think (dark brown leather, black leather, beige, purple, yellow, turqouise, all black)... They're comfy and fits my style perfectly

 

[Organic]

i have 13 pair, including a custom designed pair. so it's safe to say i like them.

 

[oceanharlot]

Oh my gosh! Awesome! Where, vintage_princess?


I think it's about time that I buy some. Do their sizes run pretty normal? Are they really pretty UNcomfortable? Who has the best selection?

Some brown ones would be right up my alley. Just the old-school converse shoes that I could pair with jeans/trousers... can't wait to buy some...

 

[scblonndie]

Yeahhh... classics.

 

[rincewind]

I own four pairs and am currently planning on getting some more. Love switching up the laces and drawing on them. So stylish and so easy.

 

[Shoe_Whore]

erin, i think the sizes are pretty accurate, zappos.com, converse.com and shoes.com all have loads

Erin, I found the polka dot ones from the shoe shop here called Office. Unfortunately they dont have them available on their website though. I can upload of pic of them that I took from ebay.

I havent worn them out yet so cant be certain if they are very comfortable, but they do run true to size for me.

^ Thanks so much.


I see that they have some pretty awesome silver ones... but they're over $100... not sure if I can drop that.
