Chuck Taylors

I bought them a couple of years ago when not many people were seen with them. I thought they were rad. A few months later, one out of every pair of feet I see have All Stars on them. I stopped wearing them because I felt like a trendy cunt.

Idiot #1: I just bought these Chucks! Aren't they awesome?
Idiot #2: OMGZ I BOUGHT SOME TOO!
Idiot #3: WTF ME TOO OMGZ!11
Idiot #1: lolzzzzzz we're twins!1!!

Chuck Taylors

A brand of old school shoes that were cool in the 1950’s.

Now they are a trend for posers and Goths. The people who wear them try to be different and claim to be against all fads and trends, and yet ironically, have 10 pairs of Converses.

Only posers and people who care about trends care about their shoes. So, yes, people who wear chuck Taylors are fad freaks too. So don’t act different.

Chuck Taylors

Overpriced plastic and cloth shoes for people who are to young to appreciate a good pair of Timberlands.

Emo guy: Notice something? (points to his Chuck Taylors in an unsubtle way)

Me: Er, no?

chuck taylors

old school sneakers that are super comfortable and go with anything. Please avoid stereotyping. these shoes are for those that like em and want to wear them. Don't wear them because you want to label yourself and you think Chucks will reinforce it.

Hi Top or Low top Chuck Taylors. I like them both.

The Converse All Star (without Chuck Taylor's signature) was first sold in 1917. In 1923, Chuck's signature was added. For those that feel that they must identify an original social "group" for the popularity of these shoes, I'd say it was SoCal surfers back in 1960. The Converse (we never called them "Chuck Taylors") fit right in with our Levi cords and Pendelton shirts. Another shoe that was popular then was the Jack Purcell tennis shoe (I think Converse bought them out and still makes them...they're the ones with the bulbous toe and smiley face stripe). I still have four pairs of Converse (2 low cut and two high tops) that I wear... it's got nothing to do with gansta rap, goth or posing. For me, it's a bit of nostalia and comfort. As low tech as they get, but they're still great for a 6 mile walk by the beach.

I've got four pairs of Chuck Taylors and none of them were made in this century.
