Because everything copied them.

>>11136501

Because they're the basic T-shirt of footwear.

Converse is like the Coca Cola of shoes, but that doesn't mean they're the worst shoes ever (pic related).

I literally can't stop laughing, thank you anon

>>11136501
I agree, but the mono colorways look alright. So do the new gen.

I have these and they comfy af. I probably wouldnt get regular converse now though.

>>11136850
Fffuck I've wanted these forever but I can't find them in canada :(

>>11136850
this. regular converse are shit, jack purcells and some custom and limited edition chucks are def worth it and top tier effay.

>>11136940
Yo I just checked the nordstrom site and they look like they ship to canada for not too much

>>11136525
Damn raf simmons is so fresh and innovative man

What? Which city do you live in? These are everywhere where I am - just visit literally any mall. Seen them in Nordstrom, Little Burgundy and Footlocker to name a few.

For those of you who think these are the GOAT chucks, you probably haven't tried them on IRL yet. They're a lot comfier than old chucks, but the canvas looks so rigid and plastic (especially on your feet). I'm sure they'd look good in a few palewave fits, but the synthetic appearance defeats the purpose of using a a natural color like parchment - you'd probably be better off with a different colorway in my opinion.

>we generic dressing chick from norway now

>>11136940
I am actually in canada and yeah it was a pain in the arse to find them. Eventually I got them for ~$80 from shoeme

>tfw still no picture of dirtied up cons !!

Sterile variants you can buy at cheap fast fashion stores look way better because they don't have the terrible logo on the side or heel. I don't wear them, or actual chucks either because they aren't comfortable. Good foam insole goes a long way to alleviate it though.

I got these Levis for my birthday but I returned it a week later because that's what all the hicks where because they can't be assed to buy real shoes.

These sorts of shoes are for fits where you want absolutely nobody to remark on them. People are almost blind to converse shoes from their ubiquity. Same thing applies to 501/511 jeans

Do people actually wear these, outside of running?

That's like strapping on a weightlifting belt for style.

They look good, it's a timeless design. But they're not comfortable at all.

Buy the Muji ones. They're ridiculously cheap and really comfortable.

>>11136501
because people want to invoke a predefined style and heritage instead of making their own

>>11138140
Most of the people who buy them are the same type of people who believe they only need 3 shoes, one for formal, one for casual and one for "fun"

Guess which one is the fun one.

I've always had flat really narrow feet, so they're great for me.
And they look fucking fly beat.

>>11136501

not to be worn after high school. the branding is as obnoxious as abercrombie & fitch or aeropostale too
