Converse Chuck Taylor\'s have been one of my favorite shoes since I was 15 yrs old. I usually wear a 9.5 Women\'s and have found that Chucks can run a half size larger, so I always order a Women\'s 9/ Men\'s 7 and they fit perfect every time. These arrived fast and were on my feet and I was out the door with no problems. I recommend changing lace color to add another dimension of personal flair.

One word to describe the shoes: Awesome! They do run big so don't get the 1/2 size if you normally do or go a 1/2 size down. No arch support or cushion so if you have sensitive feet, you'll need to buy your own cushion. I have worn this shoe with and with socks and this shoe has never caused any heel discomfort.

I love these sneakers,and always get compliments on them! I have a hard time finding this type of shoe that fits, as I have a really high instep and arch, and thesef fit great. The quality of the canvas and rubber is excellent. I think it\'s a shame they have to be $45, but Zappo\'s price was the best around, so what are you going to do? And of course, Zappos shipping and customer service was fabulous! Every woman should have a pair of red high tops in her closet, even if she\'s 50 like me!

I bought pink Converse Hi-Tops to give to our granddaughter for her 14th birthday. She was thrilled with them and I was thrilled with Zappos' prompt service.I will always turn to Zappos for shoes and I will look at buying other items from Zappos in the future. P.S. I just finished reading about your company in Twitter and it seems that you are definitely doing things right. Thank you.

I love Converse shoes. They are like hot dogs & apple pie! I bought these black Converse to paint Halloween Candycorn & pumpkins on. I have bought many different Converse over the years. They are awesome!

The product I bought was for my granddaughter Sarah. She has these in all colors She would sleep in these if she were able to. Do they come in slippers? Shopping at Zappos.com is a breath of fresh air. Not only do they have an enormous selection of about anything you could ever need, on many occasions they offer free shipping. My best reason for shopping Zappos is they will ship next day and not even charge you extra. Especially now for the holidays always something comes up at the last minute, I'll go straight to Zappos.com and I know I'll get it next day.What company offers you this much without charging you extra? No company that I know of and I have done a lot of shopping online.

These are great, classic, durable shoes, and I hate having to pay the German price as an American working in the Armed Forces. Zappos has allowed me to get the shoes I need as an Armed Forces employee overseas! Great product. Great company.

There's a reason these shoes have been around such a long time. It's a classic design with a ton of ankle support, but if you have high arches like me I suggest buying some form of insole. But once you have those in you'll never want to take these shoes off. And because they look as good in a suit as they do in jeans and a t-shirt, you probably won't have to.

I ordered shoes for my daughter which were the wrong size. I called the company and was pleased to be told the new size would be sent out immediately while the first pair was on its way back to the company. I got the shoes the next day, and I did not have to pay any additional shipping and handling charges. Very prompt, very courteous service!!

Cool retro-style shoe! I bought this in the all-black and also in brown. I didn't like the brown too much so sent it back. But I really love the all-black shoe; very cute with skinny jeans and trench with a scarf, which is how I saw a lot of women wearing this shoe in Paris. This shoe is such an American classic!

I recently purchased eight pair of Converse All Star shoes for our Homecoming court who wanted to look classy, yet a little unique. They looked great in their tuxes and all different colored Converses! I went one size smaller than what they usually wore. I did have to return one pair. It was so easy to return them. The guys absolutely love them and I see them often around the school.

Hi, \r\nWhat could be better advertising then this:\r\n\r\nMy daughter has asked me for a third or forth time to buy ONLY those of snickers, from all others she can chose, that is mean - there are the best.\r\nNevertheless, what is the most intriguing is that she lives in Paris, France.\r\n\r\nThank you,\r\n\r\nMilan \r\n

I love my red Converse High Tops. I purchased them for a chili pepper costume I had to wear at work for a promotional. I was on my feet for a couple hours straight and they were comfortable. I knew ahead of time that they are very flat, so I slipped in some Dr. Scholl's arch supports and it was perfect! I have had the opportunity to wear them on casual days at work and I'm looking forward to making them my casual Christmas shoes, as well as Valentines, 4th of July or any time I feel like wearing red shoes with my jeans.

Zappos rocks! I ordered my converse all star tennis shoes in the afternoon and had them the next morning! Why bother going to a shoe store with service like this. I am a customer for life.

Great shoes! I love them. Incredibly comfortable and they look as cool as I thought they would with my favorite jeans. The only minor issue I have with them is the incredibly flat heel so zero height for us shorties.

I bought these high tops in Navy Blue today from Foot Locker and they are the same price on here as there. I wore them out of the store and they were very comfy! Since I am still only a young teen and might grow a bit more, I always get a size womens 9, mens 7. They fit almost perfect, though a teensy big. The back didn't rub my leg or anything, very nice! These are so vintage and better than any other shoe. After walking or being on concrete a whole day my feet do ache a little, but nothing bad at all. I wear these every day. These are my third pair, and I am so happy!

Combat Chucks - This is my third pair of "tacti chucks" I use 'em diving with rocket fins. I wear either a cotton sock for warmer water or fleece socks if the water is cooler, I do long swims then hobble back to the LZ. These Chucks are better than any rubber bootie going the only thing better is OTB boots but they're 3 times the cost. I go through a pair a year for dive ops. Good kit and usual great service from Zappos. I just wish they would make 'em in OD green again.

Love these classics but, I want them to last a little longer! I buy these for my husband but it seems like after 6-9 months these shoes are in shambles. Is it just him? Does everyone have this problem? The price has gone up on them so much over the last decade only because they became so popular but the quality could have gotten better. Regardless, I will always love them. PS, always order a size smaller then your "normal" shoe size.
