Converse Skate

At first I felt the price was pretty steep, but I prefer these to the original converse! The insoles are comfortable and these last quite a while, even with regular wear. I am usually a size 8 in athletic shoes, but these fit great in 7.5.

i wear a 6 in ladies and a 4 in boys - but always buy chucks in a 3 in boys. they're a little tight, but i will break them in soon enough. they're cool.

I love them - I have always been a fan of converse - I bought these for a gift to give someone for Christmas and I was so excited that well lets just say they are wearing them already :) really a sharp looking pair of shoes And Zappos always satisfies with customer service/shipping and quality

I have 10 pairs of converse, 4 are the CTAS with lunerlon insole. These are very comfy for all day wear, but I suggest a 1/2 size bigger then regular chucks for thicker insoles.

classic love it

These are great skate shoes! I alternate between Vans Skate Hi Pros, Nike Blazer Mids and these. The Converse CTAS Pro Hi is the most comfortable of the 3. On my second pair of Chuck's, favorite skate shoe!

If you've been wearing Converse for years, DO NOT size up - buy your regular Converse size!! My normal size was out of stock so I followed the trend here of half size up and they're definitely a half size bigger... Wider too! The suede material is really nice and construction much sturdier than standard Chucks. There is still 0 arch support (duh) but the insole does provides nice padding - I'm on my feet all day at work and have no pain with these over the standards. There is one extra eyelet versus normal but without even using it my feet stayed in fine (just the laces are too long!) Overall still stoked as usual for a new pair of Chucks!

Was searching for a pair of Adidas Gazelles in green, but apparently they no longer exist. So this was the only kind of green shoe I could find with a suede finish. Have always wanted a pair of Chuck Taylors, and these seemed similar. I like the old school looks of it, though having lived in slip on deck shoes for years, the stooping to tie and untie is taking some getting used to. Shoes are comfortable (at least while wearing socks. Haven't had much experience without.) They appear well made and fit well. Only downside I can see is that the arch support is barely even noticeable.... maybe a tiny little rise on that side of the footbed. Far to little to ever feel it or for it to offer any support whatsoever. Made a pair of inserts necessary. Hoping that they don't raise my foot to the point where my heel is too high in back. Footbed doesn't have much padding at all either. Pretty hard. But... the rubber sole seems to offer enough cushioning that they're not uncomfortable. Toe box is a little clunky,and the big rubber toe bumper takes some getting used to or breaking in. In first couple days I found myself catching the toe occasionally as I walked, but think this is just a matter of my getting better used to them and them breaking in further. Another factor that of course will differ from person to person, is that the side of the low cut area tends to push on the side of my ankle on one side and causes a little discomfort. Maybe my ankle bone is a bit lower than most... and it might soften up after further use and not be a problem at all. As of now, it's just a small annoyance. From a few days experience, they look like they should hold up very well. Only problem I might anticipate is that the rubber along the sides where the toe creases while walking get a lot of stress and might eventually crack or fail... but hopefully not for a long time.

Typical chucks! Hard to beat them!

Love Jack Purcells! And, I love that you can remove the insole to add an arch support. Barely any break-in time is an added bonus.

My 8th-grade daughter loves these; they are her go-to shoe and she insisted on getting a second pair for this school year. She likes the fact that they are all black and so a little dressier than the average sneaker.

Great fit & feel - very quick delivery from Zappos. I need extra arch support, so I ordered the shoe a half-size larger than actual fit . . . put in my arch supports . . . and the fit is perfect. Thanks for the great shoes - and service - Zappos . . .

These are not a advertised or described. Claims to have a lunarlon insole, but it has a very thin Nike Zoom Air in the heel and a little foam in the forefoot. Completely worthless. No arch support, little cushion, only slightly better than the originals. I'm very disappointed as I was expecting a pair like my last pair with the lunarlon insole (like described). These will be going back unfortunately. Love the old school style, but not the old school lack of comfort. If you have pairs with different insoles, you should separate which ones are which. Still love Zappos, but really disappointed with these. Shipping as always, was great.

I've been wearing Chucks forever and with age, they would start to kill my lower back. BUT with these added arch support inserts, I can wear these without worrying about my back. Definitely better than the older ones. Great shoes!!

These are awesome. Very comfortable. I wear a men’s 6.5 in vans and I bought a mens 5.0 in these converse and they fit great. True to fit for converse sizing for me. :-)

Looked alright, very narrow.

Ordered these for my son. They're a bit narrow for him, but he has really wide feet. The color is more green than the picture, which is mostly why he wants to return them.

Have had several pairs of Chucks over the years, and this is the first time sizing has been off--needed a full size smaller than my normal.

I usually wear the regular low-top converse in a women's 8, and I ordered the same size in these shoes. Other reviews suggested ordering a size up; however, I would have found the shoe to be way too big if I had done that, and I'm glad that I ordered my usual size. The Nike insole is very comfortable and has good arch support. These shoes look a little wider than the regular converse, but are still stylish. Definitely would recommend these shoes to anyone who likes the classic converse look but is looking for some more comfort.

Fit was right on. My son put them on and has worn them everyday since he got them. We were actually surprised that they were leather. We were expecting canvas but the leather seems more durable and possibly warmed so we are happy with them.

Classic appearance, upgraded durable materials and comfort

Love them!

the inside of the shoe is soft to the touch. But I wear a 7.5 in a women I ordered a 7 and they are still a whole size too big. Generally Converse run big anyways.

Great shoe

These shoes are perfect! Loved the fit and material; so iconic of the 70s!
