Important details to consider before buying -
First lets get the facts out of the way. Zappos shipped & I received in two days...great service! Shoes arrived and I would strongly encourage you purchase a full size smaller than your regular sneaker size. Plus understand that saying its leather is correct, but there is no arch support and its really canvas with a very thin covering of leather. Also, and this is important to me, the "Chuck Taylor" logo is positioned wrong...as its only on the inside of the shoe as they are worn. The pictures on Zappos are deceiving as the show a standard "right" view which shows logo on the outside as it should be. Its bad enough they (Converse) decided not to include a logo on each side of each shoe as they always did over the years...but to only include on the inside not only looks silly, but defeats the purpose of buying "Chucks" to begin with. If youre over 30 years old you understand what I mean. Its a shame, I love the concept, coloring and the shoe itself, but it's overpriced for what it is. I really hate to return both pairs.

Nostalgic Chucks -
I like the look and fit of the leather and canvas shoes. The only concern I have is that the sole is already beginning to separate from the leather upper with just a couple days of light wear. The canvas ones usually took much longer. Wear supportive insoles if you normally need them. They work well in these shoes.

Nice Shoe -
Ordered the chocolate brown color. Changed the laces to my liking. You might consider doing the same. Besides that, no grievances!!! Remember, leather needs to stretch, so wear them for a while to figure out if the width is correct for you.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Simple. More arch support.

My Experience -
First off, I have to say that Zappos is the only online shoe store I use that has the most variety in styles and sizes. Zappos next day aired my sneakers at no extra cost to me and that was awesome. Thank you! Ok, my review on the Converse All Star Hi All Leather - look amazing, as for comfort, that's my biggest complaint. They barely have any cushion or support. They are very low to the ground, but I recommend that you buy some type of inner soles like jellin or something with support. Now I'm enjoying them again. Thank you Zappos for being the best online shoe and accesories online superstore.

Never thought I'd be into leather.
I've been wearing canvas Chucks for about 15 years and have worn every pair 'til they've practically fallen off my feet. Back when they were less it didn't matter if they didn't have arch support and fell apart after two months. Now though, the pricing has become outrageous and the quality hasn't improved a bit. These leather Chucks are a godsend though. I just purchased my second pair. I'm still wearing my last pair which I purchased two years ago! I will never buy another canvas pair again. The leather may be more expensive, but like I said; Canvas = 2 months and Leather = 2 years. You do the math. Do yourself a favor though and buy some insoles.

2nd review. Have worn them for everyday use for nearly a year. Lot's of standing and walking at work. My feet often hurt, and after adding some gel inserts, they alleviated a lot of that problem. Use them fairly consistently for light hikes, and mt. biking. Again the GORE TEX, though not considered important when I bought them has come in handy often. I love the lacing system. Construction is great, wore out the soles while the upper is still solid. A good looking shoe in black. Although I never spend this much $$$ on shoes, I'm buying a 2nd pair, this time in green.

I wear these pretty often; they're comfortable, wash well, good looking -- my first pair lasted about a year or so, but I wash them a lot...

I purchased the black/multi colored shoes like this. I saw them on this site but they only came in youth sizes and I was pretty upset so I wrote the person and charge and they told me that youth comes in 2 sizes smaller than women which I really appreciated, I wear a 7.5 in women so I purchased them in 5.5 I was nervous because I thought they'd be too small but the fit just right. The delivery felt fast to me. I will DEFENITELY be ordering my next pair of shoes from here. I also fell in love when I saw them on here but when I received them they looked even better.

People wore these to play basketball?
Marketed as the granddaddy of basketball shoes...but don't expect these to wear comfortably. I didn't get these to play basketball; I got them for nursing, seeing that they're one of the only shoes on the market with an all-white option that doesn't look terrible (white is a requirement). I got them in a ten (I wear elevens in other shoes) and they still felt simply huge. Also, if you have wide feet, you may want to reconsider your choice of footgear. Pardon my French, but I was pretty darn surprised how uncomfortable these are.

Great stylish shoes -
I bought these shoes to wear when I want to dress things up a little, but don't want to go in full dress shoes. What could be better than leather Chucks? They fit perfectly and feel really good while wearing them. Glad I got them!

A Classic in Leather -
Purchased two pairs of these "Chuck's" in the all black leather: one for my boyfriend and one for my brother. Both absolutely LOVED them. They look as laid back, classic and casual as the canvas versions with the addition of being just a bit special because they're all leather. I also own two pair of low tops in red sequins and graffiti print, and I love those, too. An All-American classic shoe perfect for kicking around on the weekends.

Great shoe.
Got them in white monochrome, definitely better than the regular canvas ones. Size down a half size from your regular shoe size.

Another pair of Chucks??
Not just your ordinary sneaker ... it's a 'leather Chuck' ... stylish and comfortable ... yes, I'm wearing Chucks at 55 ... grew up with originals ... and still wearing them today ... I currently have six pair and this is the first pair of leather ones ... need to keep them away from my two sons, aged 26 & 24 ... they were over the other day, rummaging in my closet and saw them ... and the leathers remained at my home ... great price, great service ... less than 24 hours from ordering they were at my door. Keep up the great work ...

These are a great shoe -
I bought these for my son as he wears his canvas version 24/7. I wanted just a little dressier look for "special" occasions. These are great. The leather is buttery soft and he said they are actually more comfortable than the canvas!

These shoes are great. I bought black monochrome. They look great, they fit to jeans perfectly. I received some compliments on these shoes, they're sexy. They're quite comfortable but I wouldn't recommend them for a long walk.

Dilburgs Review -
Zappos is the best, their price was the best, they had a quantity in supply and the delivery came 2 days later. I shopped locally and the price was higher and some did not have any in stock. The shoe fit just right and I wear them every day. I would not have even thought of zappos but my father said to give them a try . You now have a new young satisfied customer thanks again.

Nice leather sneaker for the money -
I purchased these for my boyfriend. He got the ones that are all black. He loves the look of them, but did say that since they have no arch support, they hurt his feet after standing for long periods of time. He put 2 insoles in them and now says they feel much better. Also, we noted that Zappos suggested ordering a 1/2 size smaller than your normal size. This is true. We ordered the recommended size and they fit just fine. Thanks Zap!

So, I had to buy a pair of washable leather monochrome black kicks for work. I decided against the recommended anti-slip shoes and chose to go with my old stand-bys: Chuck Taylors. I was a little hesitant about the whole leather thing, being as I've only worn canvas shoes for the past 7 years, but I was pleasantly surprised. I wore these to work fresh out of the box and they were fantastic. The leather broke in quickly and was comfortable during an entire 8-hour shift. I'm a heavy-hitting proponent of these shoes.

An Updated Classic Never Fades Away -
As a Kid I always wore Cons, did not know then that they were so cool, but they still are today. Was voted best dressed in my high school class, and still today consider myself on the edge of fashion. These leather Cons are very stylish, now, and speak to the inner person you are by wearing them. A great idea then and still today. Very cool Converse, thanks.

Glad to have 'em -
For months I shopped around tirelessly for these sneakers but none of my local stores had them in stock. I was so excited to find them on Zappos and at a reasonable price.
They're the coolest and they look great with the leather bomber jacket I purchased to go with them.
They totally give me the "Joan Jett" effect.
I am so glad to have em.

Converse All Star Leather Hi -
These shoes are very comfortable. The all-leather uppers are soft yet supportive. The look is very cool and not many people wear them. I am consistently asked, "where did you get those?"
