Product was as I hoped it would be. Was delivered very quickly. No complaints. Would use Zappos again.

Comfort I gave 3 stars since I imagine most people aren't buying Chuck Taylors for the comfort and arch support. I have a pair for weightlifting in the gym. The thin pliable sole allows for me to replicate lifting barefoot without having to step all over someone else's dried sweat or just nasty funk that could be on the gym floor. I have wide feet and blow these out, but being that there's very little material there to begin with the sole blows out with the width of my feet. So it's like wearing a wide shoe. For lifting these are 5 stars. I wouldn't wear these every day though, my arch would hurt too bad.

Typical Chuck Taylor high tops. Seem to run bigger than my low tops from 7 years ago. Not too narrow if I let out the laces, which is good for my feet. Overall, good buy!

Comfortable and good looking, but these things are noisy. Lots of creaks and squeaks, in case that kind of thing bothers you. I wore these daily for years, and don't remember them ever squeaking. I suspect maybe the quality is not what it was.

I have been wearing these for about a month now and I'm pretty happy with them. I normally wear a 7.5 (woman's) and I was worried about what size to order. I knew that I would want to put my orthotics into the shoes, so I needed them a little big, but then not too big? I decided to go with a 7.5 since people said the shoes were a little large and that worked out. The shoes fit well with and without the orthotics in them. They are as uncomfortable as everyone says; I could barely walk across the room without my orthotics in them (but I have pretty picky feet). Even with the orthotics I don't ever wear these for a full day of walking around, but for going to school or running errands they are fine. One thing I was surprised by, I thought that these shoes would make my feet look big, but I think they make them look smaller, it anything. Overall, I'm happy with these shoes and for anyone else with picky feet who is wondering if they can wear the 'cool' shoes like everyone else, I hope this helps!

Converse are ultimately cool sneakers...and as beauty often does...it comes with some down-sides. You get to have the right size, as the rubber front end does not ever widen. There is no foot-bed and when you wear them in hot weather they can get smelly...but hey, they are cool.

Converse are a great classic style. My husband wore these with his suit for our wedding and they really looked great!
However, they were too narrow for his feet and he'll likely not wear them very often. I wish Converse carried wides. I have a couple pair of Converse myself and feel that they are narrower than other shoes but stretch and conform to your foot nicely after a few wearings.

I ordered these shoes for my wedding. Yes, I said wedding. Ordering was easy, and they arrived quickly within a couple of days of ordering. Since I have other colors of Chuck Hi-Tops, I knew what size to order. It is true they have zero arch support. If your feet give you trouble do not buy these. But I have arch supports which travel between shoes and they work well in these shoes. And it is nice when wedding shoes are both stylish and practical! I have ordered from Zappos before and will do so again, but I will not marry again.

I love these shoes, but there is nothing to them. I have to put in inserts if I want to wear them all day or they start to hurt my feet.

The Chucks provide classic style. They seriously can be dressed with any sort of attire: up, down, worn out, fresh and clean, whatever. They do run a one size too large. I wear a size 11 in Chucks whereas I normally wear a size 12 in most other brands. The shoes are decently comfortable, but the make my feet hurt if I do too much walking in them. Definitely not a good athletic shoe. I tried ballin' in these before, and it turned out to be a very bad idea. I didn't jump higher; I just had sore feet. I also ride my bicycle a lot and these shoes are terrible for that. The soles come undone and they also aren't thick enough to do a good job. Even without biking, the shoes wear out while just walking. And, while I like the worn in look, I have to repeatedly buy new pairs due to worn out soles, holes and tears. That being said, I keep buying them because they are that classic.

I bought these shoes because a guy in a strength book I read wears them for balance and flat footed feel. They work great I wear them every day that I workout. Also you can't go wrong with this classic!

Classic Converse shoe that we all grew up with. Still made the same way it was when we were kids a million years ago.

In larger sized Chucks the shoestrings should be longer. I have to buy longer shoestrings if I want to lace them all the way up. Other than that, excellent product!

The delivery was so fast that I still don't understand how it was done and I had even checked the slow free delivery. The shoes are as they should. Fits perfectly, well it's a classic.

Great shoe. Exactly what you would expect of a Converse shoe. Fits very well as long as you choose a size smaller and looks great with jeans.

Great shoes, you can't go wrong with these classics. They do run a bit large as converse always do so order a half size down as they suggest.

Love the look, and they're really flexible so there's no break in. Been wearing Converse since I was a kid. The high-tops are a bit of a chore to get back into so if you don't like fussing with the laces all the time, get the ox model. Unless you wear a half-size, you're best off buying these online as most brick and mortar retailers only have whole sizes. These definitely run 1/2 size big so if you wear a 9, get an 8-1/2. If you must have arch support, plan to add your own orthotic as these shoes have none. Some of the more special models (like the leather-upper ones) do have a removable foot bed so you can easily add an orthotic without making adjustments in the size. The regular canvas shoes do not have this feature. Write to Converse if you think they should have a regular Chuck with a removable foot bed and I did! Love these shoes, but only four stars because of the flat foot bed issue.

These shoes smell. The glue from the factory is pungent and overwhelming. Recommend storing them in the garage if you're not wearing them.

You can't go wrong with a pair of Chucks! They are like old friends. The thing I like most is the service from Zappos. The shipments always arrive more rapidly than I anticipate. The customer service with Zappos is supreme!

These shoes are adorable, but lack arch support and give me a blister during the first month of wear due to the narrow toe box. The next size up is too large. I love these shoes, but they\'re much more of a fashion statement than a comfortable shoe.

Super cute shoes, they run big though so get at least a half a size smaller, if not a full size.

These shoes arrived exactly as I had ordered them. They fit a little on the big side, but were perfect for my wedding! They\'re good solid shoes, but they\'re not exactly built for comfort.
