    Converse

    "These shoes run large. We recommend going a half size down."

    Change your labeling?

    • I recommend not getting a pair. I say this having recently got my first pair... .
      They're pretty, but quite useless.

    • (no grip on damp London pavements; I can feel every pebble larger than 5mm in size; Perhaps I have long toes, but rubber front is hurting my second-biggest toe)Nairn
    • more of a fashion purchase than utilitarian, but thanks for the heads up. my gf agrees to their worthlessness on long walks with the dog.imbecile
    • an alternative i'm also contemplating. https://thursdayboot…imbecile
    • ha! My gf's worn the exact same style for years, much like I have with hiking boots. She's just got her first pair of boots, me my first pair of Converse :)Nairn
    • Those white ones are nice. I bought the Cons because they had nice colours... after two pairs of white summer sneakers that turn to shit quick in filthy London!Nairn
    • *white canvas sneakers, not leather like yours.Nairn
    • i presumed the white canvas would get dirty quickly but can't see myself wearing white shoes too often, trying to weigh the pros and cons if you will.imbecile
    • oh ffs, front page?! lolNairn
    • oh, wait. fucking moron. i was in Feed.

    • I was in Tk Maxx with my wife and she saw a pair of Converse in my size and said 'Why don't you try these on?'
      Without hesitation I said 'I'm a grown man...

    • ...no-one my age wears them, unless they're having a midlife crisis' And obviously the guy sitting down beside us was trying a pair on.PhanLo
    • hahahaNairn
    • *turns off internet, goes to the toilet to have a cry*Nairn
    • I found The Perfect Pair of Sandals for my daughter in TKMaxx the other day. Except, every last fucking one of them was the wrong size. I hate TKMaxx.Nairn
    • More of an ongoing crisis...imbecile
    • I used to like TK's but it get's harder to find stuff that doesn't have a giant Polo logo on it or jeans that look like they've been worn for 5 years.PhanLo
    • For decades I've sized down for Chucks but they're too small. Buy the true to size and they're too big! I need an 11 3/4 to fit correctly.fooler
