I got the monochrome black Chucks for a Halloween costume, but have ended up wearing them a lot more than expected because they're pretty awesome kicks. I really like the all black ones because they go well with jeans or cords and are a perfect colorway for the fall and winter. I've always liked Chucks because they're classics and look great, not to mention they are very moderately priced. If you need a good pair on concert-goin' kicks, I highly recommend these.

The black-on-black Cons are great - I've always liked All-Stars, and these somehow make your feet look tiny (not the sort of duck-foot you sometimes get with the white toed variety). They run big - I usually wear a W9 and the 5 1/2's I ordered fit fine. Zappos has to be hands-down the best customer service of any online business - I've been buying from them for 6 years and never ANY problems with returns, etc.

These shoes are awesome! I got them in white and they look super cool, especially with jeans and a cute leather jacket. They ran really big on me so I had to get a whole size smaller than I usually wear. Other than that they were perfect.

Love these shoes! I own 6 pairs of Converse, and I love them all, but this is the most comfortable pair I own! Usually it takes weeks of wear for them to really break in, but these only took a few days before they were like a second pair of skin.

Stiff, hot, painful shoes. I took the advice of other reviewers and purchased a 12, as I usually fall somewhere between a 12 and 13. Unfortunately, the shoe is narrower than I had realized and should have bought the 13. Long story short, I say ignore this "buy a size down" thing.

Wow! I love Zappos! 2nd purchase and I am very impressed. They deliver amazingly fast, even with free shipping! Bought them on Sunday and got them Tuesday. Amazon takes at least a week or so. Great shoes, too. I love them.

I love my Chucks! I have wide feet so they aren\'t exactly the most comfortable but I won\'t be walking miles in them anyways! I don\'t lace them very tight and that works for me!

These shoes look fantastic! I ordered the classic black and white combo, one for me and one for my son. Did order a half size down. Very happy with the look and fit!

I've been wearing Converse since I was a kid & I love them! They're super sturdy & very comfortable. I tend to run a half size smaller in these than other shoes, so you might keep that in mind.

My kids love these shoes - they call them their "Hannah Montana" shoes. They wear them almost every day!

My daughter, who is 11, wanted these tennis shoes, but all the local stores only carried whole sizes when what she really needed was a half size. We ordered the shoes expecting a 2-3 day wait and especially since I ordered in the evening, but to our pleasant surprise they were at our house the next day. A Next-Day upgrade was applied and she was wearing her new shoes to school right away. She loves them and wears them almost every day.

I wear a size 37 and these fit perfectly. The color looks great with denim and khakis. I have a pink pair that are close to being retired. I chose this color for my new shoes since my 3 year son has a matching pair.

This was my first pair of Converse All Stars shoes and I am very pleased with the way they look. The only drawback I saw with this pair was during the first week or two of wearing them. I found that the toe box is a bit narrower than I was expecting and the inside of the shoes rubbed on my pinky toes pretty badly. I got blisters on both toes! I had to use patches of moleskin to prevent further chafing. I\'m not sure if it was the 2 weeks of wearing constantly or my loosening up the laces in the toe area, but they\'re more comfortable now and I don\'t get any chafing. My suggestion is to loosen the laces when you get them if you have a wide foot.

These are the only shoes I buy. I\'ve been wearing them since I was 14 years old. They look great, feel great and are inexpensive. The free shipping is a plus also.

Great shoes, really bring me back to middle school. I got the black and white ones. I usually wear a size 8, but bought a 7.5 (womens) after reading the other reviews. They fit great! Love them, and Zappos service as usual.
