    I honestly don't see why Converse are so popular? If you were looking for comfort, makes like Vans and Etnies have been destroying my arches in comfortable style for the last 3 or 4 years. You can also wear them when it rains!

    You shold see how popular they are in france, they sell them everywhere. Cheaper too, should have gotten some there, oh well.

    The red ones are cool. Don't like the 3rd pair but the 4th pair are pretty cool too.

    Yes, and now you need 5 more pairs.

    Go buy...now.

    Nike bought the company!

    I like the white booties if I had to choose. Although I'd prefer something with a bit of sparkle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    Not a fan of any of them really, hate designs on shoes, I'd go with the red or the black ones if I had to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    The last ones are the least vile, basically.

    And this would make them more popular? Are they produced in sweatshops?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,983 ✭✭✭Red Hand


    I'd go with the red ones...but why go with the red ones when you could get cherry red Doc Martins boots? Wiv big f*ck off steel toecaps! Oh yeah!

    fail. You wear hawaiian shirts. :d

    Better marketing etc. I think they sent pairs of shoes to up and coming bands and the like to wear them. I remember atomic kitten wearing them at one stage.

    before they used to be worn just by rockers and grungers. They became popular again when the company was bought by Nike.

    I should hope so. You don't get the same attention to stitching from poorly motivated, unionized Europeans.

    vile

    I say that for all :P but then, I'm not the one who will be wearing them. Go ahead and buy ANY shoes Tar; they work better with no holes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,128 ✭✭✭sweet-rasmus


    Does the amnesty internalional shop have the 'no sweat' ones anymore? I think I heard that they had stopped getting the stock in. You should check that out :D


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,119 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    AH their shoes suck! :d
    Can't wait to wear my vile shoes for you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,017 ✭✭✭Bendihorse


    My dad always told me not to wear red shoes because Red Shoes = No Knickers :D

    (Although i doubt he was thinking along the line of 'cons' at the time :P)

    I like the white bootie type ones too by the way...


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,119 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    So you want to hide the no knickers part?;)
