Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Low Top Sneakers

Comment

Per Amazon recommendation, I ordered a size 13. OOPS! Too tight. Returned/reordered a pair of 14s. Fit well and I really love them. They are described as: "Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lo Top Black Canvas Shoes with Extra Pair of White Laces mens 14 " Unfortunately, the Extra pair of laces didnt come the the sneakers. (Who the heck calls these "Canvas Shoes" anyway? Theyre SNEAKERS or CONS) Solutions offered: 1. Return for full refund (Nope, they fit and I like them) 2. Credit for the price of a pair of Shoe Laces. I took number 2. Original Review: Size Issue. I really believed the recommendation Amazon gave me and so bought a SIZE 13 when my regular size is 14. I returned the 13s and will probably purchase pair of size 14s. So Amazon recommended a Size 13 and of course the "product fit" is "Too small" and the width is "Somewhat narrow".

I order European sizes all of the time and my European shoe size is precisely 37.5, which equates to Mens size 5 and Women size 6.5 to 7. Thats what I ordered and that is how the shoes I received are marked, but.... my feet are swimming in these shoes. Theres no way to wear them except as clown shoes.

My first pair of converse lasted me 8 years before needing a replacement. The replacements I ordered, the same exact pair I previously owned, lasted less than two weeks before I had to begin repairing them myself. At first the white rubber lining on the outside began to quickly come off the shoe allowing water to seep inside whenever I stepped on the tiniest of puddles outside. A $1.00 bottle of super glue from Walmart seemed to take care of this problem and the rubber outside stuck better than whatever garbage adhesive was originally used. I thought this was a one time fluke, but before I knew it I had to systematically re-glue the entirety of the white rubber all around each of the shoes! I would’ve returned the shoes immediately if I hadn’t foolishly disposed of my old Converse, but it was too late and I decided to make best of this situation. Again I was wrong. Even though I had completely re-attached the white rubber to each shoe, water still found its way in no matter what I did. Many wet socks later I decided to give up on Converse. If I wanted my feet to get wet, I would’ve bought sandals. Converse used to be solid shoes, but ever since they got bought out the quality noticeably declined in order to save a few pennies and delivering an inferior product. I don’t know how multi-million dollar company screws up something as basic as a shoe, but they managed to do it. Save your money and get another brand competent enough to withstand small puddles of water.

I really liked these shoes. I had to send them back, though, because they felt like my toes were in a meat grinder. Its funny because Ive had to upsize almost all my other shoes to a 14 but reading the reviews of these I knew to order a 13 and they fit well in length but the width wasnt there for me. I dont have an extremely wide foot but if I could have removed my pinky toes to make these more comfortable I would have. They are very stylish and I really wanted to love them. Alas, I think my dreams of owning these perfect chuck taylors are lost.

My 13 year old son loves Chuck Taylors, hes been wearing them since he was about 10.They are very cute and go with everything he wears especially jeans and cargo pants. He will even wear them with shorts. They are comfortable enough for walking all day and even playing sports like basketball in. I would say that if you have a child who need arch support I would not recommend them. They are very flat and have barely any arch support. My younger son, 7, is in this category and I could not imagine him wearing these without pain. I do think they could fit in inserts to correct this problem. The price is good and these shoes are great for throwing in the wash when they get dirty, just make sure to remove the laces so they can be thoroughly washed. I just put them on top of the dryer to dry instead of putting them in where the sole tends to crack under high heat and since my son wears size 12, they make a terrible noise. One of the best thing I like about these shoes is that they come in all different colors so everyone can be unique. My son is wearing grey right now but has worn red, black and green. They even have colors like pink, purple, stars, and plaid. If you can think the color or pattern they probably have made it.
