    Great Shoes. Well, no doubt these are very comfortable shoes! One problem with them though: if you're going to be very active in them, they're just canvas and do get holes and fall apart within a few months or even weeks. But take care of them, and they last a while. I bought a pair and learned that they fell apart. Then got another pair and took more care of them and I still wear them!

    Brands I'd also recommend: Vans, Etnies, DC Shoes...

    Old School Shoes. I've been playing basketball for almost 10 years and I've never had a pair of shoes as good as the old school "Chuck Taylor Converse" basketball shoes. They're cheap, durable, and the best shoe for any real ball player!

    Converse All-Star Sneakers: The Ultimate In Punk Footwear. Is there any other shoe that defines punk music as well as these? Spiked leather boots come close, but these shoes, sir, they're number one. If you even remotely like punk music, these shoes are for you. P.S. These shoes are great for going to shows in as well!

    from Arizona, when not in the Pacific Islands.

    You'll be Asked Where You Found These. These were required wear for "gym class" in the 50's/60's -I know. I never gave up on them as they're still handy to wear in those gyms/weight rooms where other shoes are not permitted. They wash easily, and are versatile. Granted, if you wear them daily for the street, they wear out quick and the soles will separate. However, they're unbeatable for their intended purpose, and they wear well for amphibious activities if you need boat or coral shoes. Buy them whenever you find them, and I recommend Zappos.com. And, people will ask, "Where'd you find those?"

    Brands I'd also recommend: White canvas Keds, if you can ever find them.

    Good Stuff. These shoes are classic. I don't know why people are saying they fall apart easily because mine have lasted over 3 years and I wear them regularly. I love how thin the soles are because you can feel the ground so well.

    Chucks are so incredibly groovy! Yes, these shoes rock. -Comfortable, cheap, and groovy-looking! Just don't skateboard in them, then it tears holes in the canvas! =( Anyways, buy these shoes or you're a loser.

    Happy shoesies. I wear these shoes to shows, and they'll go through anything. Those who have been to a few rough shows know that inevitably, a shoe will fly through the air because someone lost it in a mosh pit. Just lace up these hi-tops, stick a safety pin through the bow (keeps it from untying), and you're good to go.

    The R

    from A black hole in Michigan

    The greatest shoe on earth! How do those poor, unfortunate souls who've never owned a pair of Converse All Stars survive? My red Converse high-tops make me so happy every time I put them on. They're fun, quirky, and incredibly comfortable. There are only two problems with these shoes, as I see it: 1) they're lousy winter shoes, so if you live in the Arctic wastelands of, say, Michigan, be forewarned. 2) They do fall apart more quickly than most shoes, particularly if you're as hard on them as I am, but the comfort and style and overall happiness of the shoes is worth it. These shoes are Good Times, USA.

    Brands I'd also recommend: All other shoes are inferior, sorry.

    You people are obsessed. Converse are okay shoes, but not the best in the world. If you're a fat person, I recommend you not wear them because they look bad on fat people, sorry. Tall and thin people should wear them because they look better in them. But, damn, you people sweat converses too much. See ya.

    Sole Food. I'm a kid trapped in a rather old body. I've worn the hi-tops since I was a "real" kid back in the '50's. There's something about these shoes that transcends time and nourishes the spirit, (which is the part of you that never grows old if you don't allow it). 'Scuse the metaphysical stuff - this is just my own humble opinion. Since the color selection is a bit limited, I always get White, buy a packet of RIT dye in my favorite color of the moment and "roll my own." I once made a pair in avocado green which became my lucky shoes. I wore them to all my exams in college, and even to a job interview. They looked great with my new suit, and I even got the job! (Of course, nobody really cares what a programmer looks like . . .).

    Brands I'd also recommend: Keds, maybe, but this style almost qualifies

    Good, so buy it. I got the One-Star sneakers a few weeks ago 'cause they were the least popular. But, hell, I like 'em and they're really comfortable. Wear some other shoes and then put on Coverse and you can tell the difference. Rad!

    Retro-style comfort. These shoes reflect one's youthfulness. It shows one's desire not to be dictated to what is or is not "in". Wear them in pure defiance of the fashion gurus. Classic is it!

    AWW Jyeah! These are completely my favoritest shoes in the world! I moved and threw away two pair then started doing the whole punk thing again and now I am sad that I lost them! I still have my low tops from high school (at least 8 years old!!!) but sadly, they have holes in them now. My lucky monkey socks are starting to poke through. And they DO look good on fat people...I should know. They look great on me!

    OMG LIKE WOW. I like can't EVEN believe how much these shoes have changed my life. First Johnny said he like, didn't like them or whatever, but then after seeing how cute the pink ones were with my tennis outfit we totally made out. Since then, I've like totally devoted my life to getting ALL the newest and hottest styles. (For the record, Johnny likes ALL of them, but not on fat people).
