Good price but man those are gonna get filthy in a hurry
I'm trying to stop myself from buying these. They're fairly comfortable shoes, but the quality is so poor that they won't even last 8 months before tearing to shreds - big holes in the canvas, glue separating from the sides of the shoe, etc. I speak from experience with my 4 pairs doing this. I'm on my very last one that looks acceptable to go out with.
Yeah I'm gonna pass but thanks for sharing op

Sounds like you have hd some dud ones - were these actual converse? Never had any problems with mine - they get dirty nut you scrub them a bit with a toothbrush and some fairy liquid, chuck them in a quick gentle wash and viola - good as new!

Cheers OP, love Converse. Last much longer than the Sports Direct copies (Lee Cooper, Dunlop).

Great price. Also the hi-top version available even cheaper at £19.99 for those who like them
How will people know I'm wearing converse without a converse logo on the side?!

It's on the back where it's always been :smile:
Good price, I don't think i'd pay more than £30 nowadays for these. The quality has declined, mine tend to last 18 months with a few washes inbetween

18 months is totally fine. The cheap copies that I used to buy (Lee Cooper etc) barely lasted a month or two.

are they true to there size?

Generally yes although I've got a few pairs in this style of which one seems a lot tighter than the others. Converse can vary from range to range so Have a look at the Converse website and it gives you an idication of what feedback from customers says.
Id personally say theyre on the slight side of generous. Im a typically awkward 9.5 but I've already get a pair of cons and they're a 9 so i didn't have that dilemma this time.
Hope that helps!

Magic erasers (those white blocks of foam sold by JML and the like) are brilliant at getting the white bits white again.
