Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Leather Hi - White

I’ve had these shoes for two years now and I’m impressed with how durable these are! I wear these nearly every day (so easy to dress up or down) and they’ve held up well and only gotten more comfortable with time. I live in Seattle and I can wear these on most rainy days here and my feet are completely dry. These can never be discontinued because I’ve never found a shoe so comfortable that fits my daily aesthetic so well. These are very high quality and so comfy!

7 years of wear!

At the time I got these, they ran a little small so I sized up. I got the all white ones nearly 7 years ago during my last year of high school so they’ve been through just about everything with me. The leather still looks great and I’d give it the occasional wipe down and it looks just as white as when I got them, can’t say the same for the sole as it finally started to detach and glue no longer held it together… finally onto my next pair!! Totally worth it and excited for my new pair.

Delivery and service to New Zealand

Delivery to NZ took a little longer. Also there is a slight difference to the black high cut leather chucks for the better. I have previously purchased these from the converse outlet store and these ones have a shoe pace slit in the tounge which weren't on them before. Because the tounge normally slides to the side I think this is an excellent upgrade to the shoe as I have thought with previous purchases that this feature should have been on here.Shoes took about 3 weeks to arrive but was worth the wait.Super comfy for work and couldn't find them anywhere in NZ online

Good quality shoe

Excellent quality shoe & happy with the discount sale price! The delivery was extremely fast. I had originally ordered a size 6 US which was too small, so returned it with the free return delivery which Insport offers. Then purchased the size 7 which fit well. So happy with the ease of returning & getting a refund. Insport made it an easy & quick online purchase.

Good, but not what they once were

The shoes are converse. I can say this. There is a bit of a change in fit since I first bought Converse about 15 years ago. I actually had bought black leather high tops, along with brown back then. The leather was of thicker, higher quality back then. Someone stole my black pair sadly. All in all completely satisfied, although considering the leather is not quite the quality, this pair of black is not likely to last as long as the brown pair I own that have held up exceptionally well.

Quality Control

Upon receiving the shoes, there were white stains on them. I was very surprised as they came straight from Converse and not the mall or store. I expected the quality control to be a whole lot better. There was an opportunity for embarrassment because the shoes were a gift to a good friend of mine. I offered to return them or exchange them, but my friend decided to keep them. The presentation didn’t represent excellence which is what I’m most bothered about. Other than that, my friend really likes the shoes.

So comfy

I used to wear Converse as a teen but stopped wearing them. I remember they used to hurt my feet as I am quite wide-footed.I’d had my eye on a pair of high tops for a while and saw these leather ones on offer. I was so pleasantly surprised at how comfy they were! No pinching and I like that they’re leather so they can be cleaned easily compared to the canvas ones.It also makes them easy to dress up or down! I never want to take them off!

Some quality control flaws

I've been wearing leather converse for over 10 years. I have to say these newer leather converse are the worst in terms of quality of the shoe itself. The shoe looks and feel good, but the quality of the faux leather material they use is not great. On the part of the shoe along the outside of your foot, the leather will start bending and caving into weird shapes, essentially making it look like you have a roll of fat in your foot. In the black leather model it doesn't look so bad. But for the white leather model, it makes the shoe look really cheap and low quality. It was like this for both white and black leather models I bought, but the black color hides the low quality leather the shoe was built with.

The Chucks of Old

My angry old feet like Converse Chuck Taylor shoes because they just let my feel be natural. This is my 15th ish pair in the past 10 years. Converse (Nike owned) now sells a lot of Chucks with a too soft, quick wearing insole so I was glad to find an old stock pair with the standard insole. Converse Chuck Taylor haven't been state of the art for a long time, but since Nike bought them the quality has gone down (too many sewing defects, crooked tongues, bad insoles...), and the price has gone up. Because of the lack of quality and the increasing price, they aren't a good value, but since they work better for my feet than 99% of other shoes I still buy them.

The best

I’m really happy I added the Chuck Taylor All Star Leather Low Tops in white to my collection. They’re a nice change from my usual canvas ones and super easy to keep clean. Just a quick wipe, and they’re back to looking fresh, which is awesome.These shoes are comfy right out of the box—no breaking them in. Plus, they go with pretty much everything in my wardrobe, so I find myself reaching for them all the time.
