Great selection of Chuck Taylor's! Mar 04, 2008 I've never seen such a great selection of Chuck Taylor High Tops. I think this is my 5th pair. They have such great designs, nothing you would ever find in a department store. The shipping is always fast and my order has always been correct. I highly recommend this vendor!

Chuck Taylor High Tops Dec 15, 2007 We have found that by shopping on Amazon we are able to obtain all manner of items that we would not be able to purchase normally. My husband is 6'6" tall and is a big man with big feet as you would expect. He wanted to buy these particular shoes as they were something that he had worn in his childhood and loved so much. We were not able to buy these in Australia without actually having them especially made. Phil's foot size is normally 14 wide, so we opted for the size 15 US. Absolutely perfect and for a very reasonable price.
We are very happy and even though some items are way out of our purchase league due to the varying shipping costs, we are still very fortunate to have discovered Amazon.

Five Star All Stars Nov 10, 2007 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.
