Converse

Nice comparison shots MM, and I confess to wondering the same. I'm not a big fan of Converse due to my flat feet but I appreciate the history and provenance of the shoe, and I get that the "Made In The USA" Cons are much sought after due to the increase in this provenance, but the issue between the Made In China and the Made In Vietnam has always escaped me.

I've seen both in the flesh (don't own any Cons due to my wide feet) and there is definitely a difference. The first string are definitely worth more but how much more I'm not sure. Based on UK prices, the first string should cost what standard Cons are now and the standards should be about £15 less.

It's the sock/rug combo that really makes that picture.

That magic carpet is more suited to PF Flyers than Converse!

New pair of parchment hightop 70s. The toe caps are weirdly extra shiny. These are on sale on zappos. (Got mine before they went on sale.)

[Finn666]

great pair @superfuzz love my pair more and more each day…and somehow i think my regular pairs of chucks won't get that much wear anymore after purchasing these

[superfuzz]

Thanks @Finn666 I really dig those blue ones!

Papsy's Converse with cool socks!

[Giles]

Thanks for the arrow Giorgio, I was having trouble working out where the socks were….

Do anyone own the One Star J´s (Made In Japan)? How do they fit? I wanna be as cool as Kurt Cobain, just without the drugs and the awful music.

^you need to grow your hair, beard and get a Jazzmaster then as well.

Are the 70s more comfy than the "regular" ones?
