[madmonday]

here i am spamming the converse thread again, this time with a pair of addicts.  Surprised I didn't see anyone else post any:

they feel pretty good & are a nice sturdy material.

@TrickHell:

Remember doing that with a sharpie marker when you were a kid?

I remember there was a "rich" kid in 1st grade that had batman converse. I'd drAw on them when he was taking a nap. Fuck him.

[pillowPANTS]

Hahaha. U lil hater!

Now, dont let me hear of you defacing the dark knight ever again

[pillowPANTS]

Would still like to know if the 70's fit the same as the reg chucks.
Anyone?

[emceeQ]

I wear the same size in both…

[Finn666]

Same size for me from what I can remember but I haven't owned any of the cheap normal pairs in years.

[pillowPANTS]

Thx emcee and shane. Do you guys have any of the CTAS Pro version?

[urbanwoodsman]

Picked these up from Lost + Found in Toronto. Love this bright indigo color way more than the original 70s muted blue they originally released.

I picked up the new Jack Purcell Signature in white today from Bloomindales. They are $95 but Bloomies has a 25% off basically the entire store sale going on right now so I got them for $71ish. I highly recommend these. They seem even higher quality than the 70s chucks. They come with an Ortholite insole that has Nike Zoom technology(?). The rubber is much thicker and the white duck canvas is much heavier than normal.

The sole looks nice and supportive, but I can't get past the blue lip on the toe.
Never liked that on the Jack Purcell's myself.

[pillowPANTS]

Look pretty nice Urb, but im with Broark. Ive never liked the Purcell models for the same reason

@TrickHell:

Oh yeah, I finally got a pair of these the day that my LeftField NYC sweatsuit showed up.

How do you like them?

I agree. It's weird looking. I bought a cheap pair a few years ago just to see how I would like them and I ended up wearing them a shit ton during the summer with shorts. I wanted a new pair of all white sneakers and I didn't like the new monochrome 70s Chucks for some reason.

I have a buddy that has a pair of the same shoes from a few years ago, he was actually able to pry off that blue lip and they look much better. On his pair they just cheaply glued it on, so it hardly is noticeable after removal.
