i love chuck taylor's. i'm really glad i bought a pair before nike bought them out, and because of it, i rarely wear them. i want them to last. however!! both www.veganessentials.com and www.blackspotsneaker.org sell replicas of the chuck taylors. the low cut ones, anyway.
I have two pairs and they're pretty worn out. I don't plan on buying any more. I don't want to pay $45-$50 for shoes that don't last very long.
No not the Devil. Now there made by slave kids in various countries that allow Nike to do that evil shit. If that dosen't bother you then there is no problem I guess.
Check my links for replicas of the high tops! (I'd get em for you again but you know me... friggin' lazy) They're guaranteed sweat free, pretty cheap, and if you spend a lil more you can get pink ones, too. (I can't wait for my black dots, though) Linders
had a pair or chucks...they lasted about a mounth and a half...they wear out to fastbut i dont wear shoes anymore
i went to the store today where they sell nothing but chucks...after a year of the same black chucks i taught i get new ones...so then i see this new ones that had john lennons cartoon..like in the imagine cd...i taught they were pretty nice until the sales person tells me they cost 49 or 59 dollers...so any1 else seen them around???...i would of got them but they were to expensive but oh well.. Peace and Love
they're only about $29 here, depending on where you buy them at. So far I've not seen any that cost more than 40 altogether.
I like my pink ones, but i'm beginning to hate my laces...I'm thinking about getting some black laces instead.
I have a few things to say. I'm a barefooter, but I love chuck Talyors. For the most part, They're all I wear, aside from these shoes from india my dad gave me. I know the secret to not only making your chuck T's lasting longer, but I know where to get origional, non-nike CT's. 1: It's all how you sit. In my many years, I've noticed only two spots where they really wear down... The sides of the shoe, and the corners, where when you bend your foot the rubber creases. Now, the latter is perfectly fine, as long as you prevent the first problem. When you sit on the ground indian style, as I'm sure most of you sit, look at your shoes. Don't move or get up, just look at where your foot hits the ground. All you need to do is not sit indian style. I prefer either the drunk smoker sitting on the street corner(you sit on your butt against a wall. This is optional, but you can also wrap your hands around your legs.), the poor starving guy(this is similar to the smoker. You sit flat on your feet and kneel down really low, almost parallel to your legs. This works best with skinny people) or just kneeling normal. As for buying real chucks, there's just one store to go to... Bealls. Bealls is the only place that still sells real chucks. The thing about bealls is that only old people shop there. It's exclusively an old persons store, yet they sell items for men and children. Seeing as everyone thinks bealls is only for old people, young people never shop there. So what happens is they stock something(Like a smackin new Jnco shirt) and it just sits. Well, it's the same thing with chuck T's. They stocked them, and they just sit there. They also sell the really large size 13's I have to find. It's a real bitch too finding any type of shoe in size 12 or 13, so it's nice. And for anyone who live near me... STAY OUT MY STORE BITCH, THE SHOES ARE MINE!!! PS: Astronauts should be wearing Chuck T's to the moon, cause they just kick that much ass.
Hi all ! Im new on the forum and i just found it ! glad I did ) I LOVE Chucks too and i have a few pairs, since i live in Brazil i think i have also some diferent modells than you are used to see in there ... I would love to post pics of them in here, i have some Xhigh Modells, do anyone know them ?! And also one that is completly black (wich is really good for not getting dirty ;o)) and one with flames ... the only way to post pics is by putting the pics online somewhere ??? ( BTW: the chucks we produced in here are not made my kids !!!
The Best shoes ever but i need a new pair if i had a webcam i'd show you mine and they're completely worn out but they're still good to wear had them nearly 3 years and i wear them constantly they've seen alot. Has anyone been on the converse site recently you can get these really coll ones with flowers on or you can get some with the CND symbol inside the shoe they're really cool and relativly cheap as well they're so comfortable and they last for ages.

I'm got 2 pairs of high tops: black ones that I drew all over, and peace sign ones 1 pair of low tops, their pink andput little stars on them and one pair of CT slide ons - their just red and their kind uncomfertable ) but i love them nonetheless
