1. My daughter wears a size 6.5 so that is what I bought and they are waaaaayyyy to big, they probably won't fit her for another year or more!



2. The size was true. The look of the shoe is nice -- it goes with many outfits.



3. My kids love them. And the shoes look like they may actually last a few months :) The shoes do not fit small or large, but as you would expect given the sizing charts.

1. We received the sneakers before expected. They looked great, and were much more affordable than in the stores.



2. I love these shoes! They are well made and are very trendy. Not to mention a good price! All the things I love!



3. I love adidas Superstar shoes for myself and now I love them for my son! I began wearing the Superstar while in college. Being a Physical Education major, we were required to wear them while student teaching. From then on, I was hooked. These shoes became part of my uniform! In fact in the early 80's, I could not find this particular shoe, so was grateful when they emerged once again a few years ago.
   
   Now please do not tell me that this product will become scarce again! Please let the folks at adidas know what a great product this is and if you should ever have this shoe at a great price, let me know!
   
   Thanks, Mara Campbell

1. The shoes are great, and the shipping time was reasonable, as was the price. A warning: not all types can be shipped to Canada, which is frustrating to find out just as you're finishing up an order.



2. Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars are not just a fashion statement. Back in the day, they were my choice of athletic footwear -- following in my father's footsteps -- while starting center on the high school basketball team. For a 6'2" white guy with a moderate vertical leaping ability, I didn't have to worry about losing any spring in my step, and I always led stats in rebounds and blocked shots against players wearing the then-ubiquitous Adidas, Puma and Converse "Dr. J" hi-tops. In all fairness, and as a disclaimer, 80% of the opposing team members were white guys, too.
   
   Still, though I have absolutely no vertical leap left (hey. I graduated 24 years ago), I still wear these shoes, just because. Like one reviewer pointed out, they're a great conversation starter. Plus, they're as comfy as a second pair of feet.
   
   At the turn of the 20th to the 21st century, it appeared that there'd be NO Chucks left at all: The Massachusetts factory was closing down, and Chucks appeared to be going the way of acid-wash jeans. Fortunately (or, unfortunately, if you're a member of the garment workers' union), Converse went through some reorganization and now makes these overseas, presumably in China.
   
   Well, I'm boycotting the People's Republic of China, an anti-labor country that has helped more American CEOs bust unions than just about anyone else. Its own people are slave labor. Fortunately, I thought ahead, so when Converse was on the ropes, I went out to every shoe store around and bought up all the size 12 hi tops I could find. To be exact, 143 pairs -- a closet full. I've got 'em in white, optical white, green, red, basic black, navy blue, yellow, orange, you name it. Set me back $2700, but was worth every penny, knowing that American workers made them.
   
   I AM THE IMELDA MARCOS OF CONVERSE CHUCK TAYLOR ALL-STAR SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   
   But, if you're a newcomer to them, or missed the boat, I won't hate ya for buying these for yourselves. They are so cool, I'll look the other way.
   
   I have to look the other way myself: I buy the toddler sizes for my two wittle one. Aw!!!! :) At least I help keep American shoe store employees employed, if not factory workers.



3. I absolutely love my red Chucks. They are a timeless look that can be worn with your favorite jeans, tailored slacks, or a mini. And at such a great price, a better buy than the more modern sneakers in the same category. The shoes do run big, so be sure to the follow the suggestion of ordering two sizes smaller than your normal shoe size. I recieved my order from Eastbay within 3 days of purchase.



4. When I first started buying them I had at least 4 different colors of the high-tops. I loved the broad spectrum of colors. However, about 3 years ago the company was bought out. The prices almost doubled. What was a cool shoe for about $20 is now $40-50.
   They have no arch support, sometimes you can see the glue, the shoelaces are often not long enough to lace up the whole shoe, and they wear out pretty quickly (of course that's because I wear them nearly every single day) - that's not what I expect from a $50 shoe!
   They also seem to be issuing them in fewer shades. I have had trouble in times past finding the right shade of green or purple.
   
   I still love the shoe, and still own 1 pair of navy blue ones, but I find them hard to recommend to others.
   
   I recently was in Thailand where they make the shoes and they were $21 in the stores. I was so excited to see them in the colors I want at the price I used to pay!... but it annoyed me to realize - I'm paying $19-29 each pair for the shipping costs + more markup for the American stores....



5. Thank you, Jamie Hyneman of MythBusters, for giving me the idea to get these shoes. I know yours are red and mine are the "radioactive" print, but mine cost $3.49 at Ross. Give the second assist to British actor/comic Stephen Fry.
   
   These are so different than any of my previous shoes, which always had a lot of padding. These have just a bit in the sole. I won't be doing exercise in them but they are definitely comfortable and distinctive for casual wear.
