I was out shopping today when I was supposed to be buying Christmas gifts for friends, I realized there was enough snow on the ground and that I needed a new pair of boots. So, I walked into Athlete's World and all they had were these goofy clown shoes that go by the name of, "Converse." They sell for $50.00/pair and they are pretty ugleh. :( What do you think of Converse? Personally, this style disgusted me.

I used to like the uniqueness of converse a few years ago, now everyone and their dogs wear them, and that put me off alot.

If you wore converse with baggy jeans, wouldn't it make your feet look big and long because the jeans would be so baggy that they'd make your legs look bigger? I don't know, just a thought..

Converse does make other shoe styles than the All-Star. I think some of those look better.

They were ugly when they weren't popular and now that they are, they're STILL ugly.

I love them. I wear them all the time. I can't believe you've never seen them before! Do you live on a deserted island, or something?

I used to watch American movies when I was like, 9 and I'd always dream of wearing sneakers (the converse).
Yeah, now I have them. They're still cool.

I grew up wearing Cons and I still love them. I like the more custom ones. They're pretty much out of style where I live so I can get away with it.

Yeah, a pair of white low-tops (or whatever they call them) are good with jeans.
The people who think they aren't cool anymore because they're mainstream are quite amusing. As are any people who think they're special because of the clothes they wear. In a few years you'll look back on yourself and be embarrassed.

I don't try to be "special," I just don't like to be wearing the same thing as every other kid in my town. : )

Why not? If you liked the shoe in the first place, why let anyone else put you off?

I have a few pairs. I like them. They seem not to make them as good as they use too. The pair I have now haven't lasted very long. I bought them in August and they're starting to rip already. Also, it seems like everyone likes them. They're the new trend. "Omg. Those shoes are so cute and punk. Gotta go get a pink pair. Yay!"

I bet mine are worse.
You can see my socks through them.
I've had them forever, and before that they were my brother's.
I love them because they're super-comfy, but I definitely need new ones... however, I refuse to pay $50+ for canvas & rubber. My brother got 'em for like $20, and that's about the top end of what they're worth. They're SUCH cheap shoes... I can't believe what people pay just 'cuz they're soOoOoOoO trendy and punk rawk!!!!! :rolleyes:

Man dudes, you can't hate the Chucks! They're so comfortable, and they're practically an american icon! Even though they're in style now, they won't always be, but I'll always be wearing mine!

i love my Cons, but what really p!sses me off is that people dont know why they were made and why they are also called Chucks.
incase you didnt know, basketball trainers and Chuck is the name of the guy who helped make them
