Customer Reviews Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High-Top Sneaker

Not comfortable at all! Needed to by arch support insert. They look good though

Nice looking show, however very tight on my wide foot.

Converse haven't changed since I was a kid. I couldn't wear them and neither can my daughter. She has flat, wide feet. She so much wanted these to fit because they are adorable. Alas, they didn't and we returned them.

My 15 loves converses she has these in black, but for some reason she didn't like the navy color so it's a return.

This is a great shoe. My son has been wearing them for almost 6 years. The downside is they don't last long. The shoe starts to break at the seams. We've bought about 2 a year even though my son just wears them to school.

Love these sneakers but my feet are just too wide, I don't think converse are the right brand for me. I wish they made wide widths, or even made their normal width a bit wider as I don't wear wide in any other brand.

It'll tell you to order a size larger than normal but don't do that!! Order the size you normally wear and it should fit just fine

not enough support

Classic shoes with minor but notable problems. As most say, they run big, so you can order a full size less than normal and likely be okay. One thing I've noticed with the high-top Chucks in particular is they sometimes make a dopey sound when you walk. This is not too fun and doesn't seem to happen with the low-tops. This noise doesn't always happen, but when it does, it is hyper annoying. Anyway, people (including me) will probably keep buying Chucks until the end of time, even though they're not perfect.

I guess I have to accept the fact that I just can't pull off Converses. They look like clown shoes on my feet. They're of canvas, so if it rains you're screwed. You'll be walking around with soaked feet for the rest of the day, and they'll be damp for a couple more days at the least. Also, there is absolutely NO arch support. Not the most comfortable shoe in the world, that's for sure. They are surprisingly durable, though--I've had mine for close to three years, and they just now are starting to fall apart.

Purchased these for my Grandson. This is the 3rd pair of the same shoe I have ordered for him. He likes the look and finds them comfortable enough. These are sized different so we have to order a size down from his normal size. Since his last pair was a mess he started to wear them right away. When I next saw him he told me this pair was a cheaper Knock Off. The Converse logo on the size is much thinner and he found the shoe was somewhat cheaper made. It was too late to return since he had worn them but I was very disappointed since I have been a long time customer of Zappos. I took a couple of photos but this site does not have the feature to post them.

These look great but I don't know why Zappos tells you to order a half size down. I did and the shoes are too tight. Almost uncomfortably so but livable. Next time I order Chucks I stick with my own size.

I'm probably just too picky, but I didn't find these comfortable at all. I'm not one to suffer through uncomfortable shoes, so maybe after 3 months they're better, but I'm not interested in finding out.

Kind of like walking barefoot. These don't really provide foot support or padding. They do seem to help with the ankle. Would be nice if these weren't the only high top shoes in my size on the entire site. I found a "vintage" aka 'made in USA' pair and they're nearly twice as heavy. I would be nice if these were made from a heavier canvas and rubber. I'm not too sure they'll last too long. Also the monochrome black seems to be a rarity, my work shoes have to be as solid black as possible.

Just the look my teen was after... but Converse are uncomfortable shoes. The shoe seemed to exacerbate my son's Osgood Schlatter's (growing pains)... So he is only allowed to wear them twice a week. True to size.

I should have returned for another size, but had to wear them to really find out whether they would fit or not. Too bad you can't find out which country your shoes will be manufactured, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, India and so on, because they will all fit different in the same size. I find China to be the one that fits best for me.

Had to buy these as part of my uniform for work and I'm not really a fan. They look good but have nothing in the way of support and require an insole if you're going to be walking around in them a lot.

These arrived as a Christmas gift for my son. The seam on the back of the upper on one shoe came apart on the first wearing. Zappos sent a replacement quickly, and the second pair seems fine so far. Kudos to Zappos for quickly making good on the purchase, but obviously the quality control for this shoe is lacking. These shoes run large, so it was useful that my son knew his size. They're typical Chucks-- no support, not much padding, but the look is good.

Always a shoe that can go with anything. Can take a good beating and last a long time. I wear a size 10-10.5 normally and could easily fit into a size 9! I recommend trying them on someplace before you order.

I love these shoes. I am not wearing these often as they are not doing any good to your feet and your spine, but I have taken 1/2 size bigger and have added a good Dr Scholl's sole to help a little bit. But they are so cool!

If you've ever worn a pair of Converse, then you don't need to read a review of the shoe. They haven't changed in 30 plus years. Zappos is fantastic! Two different shoes were ordered at 7 p.m. and were at my door in less than 24 hours without an additional shipping charge. Can't praise them enough!

Love these classics but, I want them to last a little longer! I buy these for my husband but it seems like after 6-9 months these shoes are in shambles. Is it just him? Does everyone have this problem? The price has gone up on them so much over the last decade only because they became so popular but the quality could have gotten better. Regardless, I will always love them. PS, always order a size smaller then your "normal" shoe size.

Let's face it, these shoes are cool, but they are not as supportive as contemporary running shoes. They just don't have the technology in-built. Yes they are comfortable enough--they are adequate, but they are not as supportive as my gel-technology running shoes. (They are however, more comfortable than my cowboy boots.) Nonetheless. I love wearing the same shoe (except in a larger size, of course) as I wore 40 years ago when as a kid I played at the local playground, I wore similar Converse high tops. Yes I am a bit nostalgic. I love "the look" but would prefer that Converse invest in adapting arch support technology to this "classic" shoe.

The shoes seem to be made of lighter, cheaper materiel. They are not up to Converse standards in my opinion.

New Soles - Not Good - I have not purchased a pair of "Chuck's" for 3 years. Since my last purchase they have changed the soles. Instead of rubber throughout they are using some other substance in parts. It is more slippery, but according to Converse (owned by Nike), the new soles are supposed to be more durable and longer lasting. For me, I use them for sports where I need the grip of the rubber, particularly on the edges of the sole. The new ones don't work for me. I am very disappointed. I hope they will go back, or at least give full rubber soles as an option.
