Converse is 100yrs old this year and it amazes me that the All-Star Chuck Taylors are over 90 years old ... Other styles have "Come & Gone" But Chucks (though they've been around a while) are/is still IN...
I remember my old-man had a couple of pairs, this chick at the local pool-hall has black (near knee height) boots, I've been through about 10paris in my lifetime so far... There are alot of style & wacky colour variations now........ So just wondering, do any on you have a pair now and what colour?
Got me a pair of standard navy low-cuts

I´ve kind of outgrown them but wore them about 20 years ago. They are way back in fashion over here in Germany...all those new-school vegan emo kids are wearing them.

I had a pair about 5 years ago. I'm probably due to buy another pair soon. Their inexpensive and always stylish.

I've gone through a few pairs. Right now I own a pair of low top navy ones and a pair of low top black ones.

I do live in a cultural backwater! Came to this thread to understand what was being discussed. Not that I have any plans to buy any, I'm just astounded that these are generally available.

I've got two pair, one black pair and one lime green pair with pink laces. The girlfriend has a pair as well, but they are checkered black and white.
I'll always be a big fan of them.

Cierra on my site LOVES them. I think she has about a dozen pairs of them in all the cuts. Here's even a link to two photos of her in a set she wanted to do with some of them:
