    Anyone recommend a good web site or shop in Dublin to buy reasonably cheap Cons or Vans.

    They can be real or fake -just as long as they look real :)

    Thanks

    There's Cans in the Stephen's Green shopping centre. They seem do that sneaker type shoe. Everything seems to be in or around the 20/30 quid mark and they do high tops and knee high ones along with the standard chuck taylor types. Hope that helps!

    No point buying fake ones, those are nearly the same price I paid for proper Vans in Galway.

    TK Maxx have Converse and some styles of Vans at the moment.

    With a student travelcard you can get cons in Schu for about 37.50. These are the genuine article too. great return policy at Schue aswell.

    I usually end up buying them there as you can't find size 13 cons elsewhere.

    +1 for Cans! They have a shop in the Ilac as well. I got my favourite pair in there for a tenner but there average price is 20 euro. Sometimes their selection is better than other times though!

    I would always invest in proper Vans or DCs because the quality is excellent and they last a decent amount of time. I just wouldn't bother with Cons anymore tbh because the genuine ones fall apart too easily for what you pay for them!
