Converse - Hot or Not?

[Lunkage.]

So, what are your veiws on converse?
In my personal opinion, i think they're fking hot.
but i wish they weren't so damn pop.

[Craig]

Its people who are like 'Oh i was they werent so mainstream' that make them mainstream, no matter how much you deny it you bought them for the reason they were 'in with the crowd' not before other people;)

[Infrontation]

They are ugly ugly and some more ugly - What Craig said people buy them to fit
in and look cool

[Wayne]

I think they're horrible. They just look like canvas shoes I used to wear when I did P.E in infants, but more boot like.

[NekkLe]

There a fashion item atm, I don't think they would suite myself either way there to small for my feet "/

[Infrontation]

How can you think these look good?

They look like something my granny would wear if they weren't boots

[NekkLe]

Lol^

I don't like them.

[Infrontation]

I was talking too post starter ;]

[NekkLe]

Yeh I kno, it was just a change in desicion after looking at that pic "/

[Infrontation]

Rofl okay ;]

[Not-Girly-Girl7]

I think they are "hot" but I would never buy them because everyone has them and I'm very orginal and unique that way.

[DMB-Hosting]

horrible YUK! NOT HOT

[Lindzi]

Some are incredibly ugly but I've always thought the plain black type ones (Like Will Smith wore in IRobot:P) are very nice! :D They're kinda expensive though.

[samsaBEAR]

Yey for Converse!! I love 'em, I've got a pair of green ones, and I want a pair of red ones, so I can go out in odd Converse lmao ^^

[i luv rosie]

I was once named converse.
and me luff them.
:D

[brandon]

Converse are horrible, alot of people wear them just to follow the trend.

[Infrontation]

Too dear the really cheap ugly ones cost like £45 and they are ugly

[Victimized]

I like the one's that look like normal shoes, like:

But i hate the high one's, they really hurt my feet, like:

[Virgin Mary]

I like decent looking old basketball shoes but some converse are OTT.

[i luv rosie]

I also don't see why people hate converse for being popular.
They are shoes.
Its no worse then wearing any other shoe.
But if you think they are ugly then thats acctually a reason.

[PWF]

i disagree i hadnt seen anyone in converse when i bought mine well i did but i didnt think they have so i will! ofcourse other people will have the shoes otherwise they wouldnt sell them i only got mine cos they were on offer lmao for £5

[helenishot]

I only like the ones that are pure black. Not the black ones with the white bits, the ones that are black all over.

[MsTanya]

i think theyre ugly and people just wear them cause theyre sheeps, and dont realise they have been around longer than they have been alive.

[NekkLe]

Exactly^

[Y!]

They're nasty. Nuff said.

[Charlie]

I like them, i don't wear them because everyone else does, its because i like the way they look. I got some pairs, but i never wear them, i'd rather wear my vans anyday.

[.Lynn]

I like them, and I dont care if other people have them.

[i luv rosie]

i fnk they sexy.

[FrozenWhisper]

Converse are horrible, alot of people wear them just to follow the trend.
I <3 converse, but like NO ONE at our school wears them. I don't have any, but I have some conversey style without the boot. Fake though.

[iluvben]

They are the worst looking shoes even , they are basicly plimsoles + boots = converse , they are U-G-L-Y.

[beth]

right now i'd say not. but i do own three pairs so like, i hope they become 'hot' again ahaha.

[Craig]

I like the one's that look like normal shoes, like:

http://www.starbrand.tv/stm/brands/b05/paul_01.jpg



Yeah I've had that pair for months, don't look ugly like others that have been made, but I prefer to wear DC's anyday.

[Lunkage.]

How can you think these look good?

i only like the origional black converse.. all the other ones are rank.

[Liam.]

hate them

[WhatDidIdoNow?]

I hate the way people go "I hate the way they're mainstream", because that shows you are only wearing them to be different, not because you like them.

[i luv rosie]

the orginal are al white ;]

[Condas]

i have the black ones (not the bit at the end)

[Kukuthebird]

i think they're ok. i hoted hot.

[Splinky]

I hate them. I used to like them, but townies have over-ruled them now. They used to be really cool if you had them but now, everyone has them. Thus, I <3 Vans instead.

[Jane]

What the hell? 'I liked them before everyone started wearing them'
If you like them wear them. If you don't..don't! It doesn't matter what everyone else is wearing. Jeez. Anyway, I think they look alright, but they are REALLY uncomfortable.

[FREWIN]

LOL @ all ppl hu voted hot. 2 person above. y wear dem if dey uncomfy? ma K-swiss ownz converse. dey luk bril + r real comfy!!!

ma vote = NOT

K swiss are horrible chav shoes, have you seen the gold one's urgh! And their like £70, what a waste, and i'm not saying this in defense to Converse either coz i don't really like them much either.

[i luv rosie]

'Hip-hop' shoe brands annoy me. Especially phat farms and unlimited footwear.

[Grindie]

I like converse, I don't care about people who go 'they are scene' or whatever.

[FREWIN]

guilds: am on ma psp. its hard 2 type.

victim: they r not `chav shoes`. i wud gladly spend £70 on shoes, rather than buy UGLY, PAINFULL converse.

Yeah, I like the first ones; I even have a pair, I just don't like the boot ones.

And as for the people saying you like them but they're too mainstream so you won't buy them, they're a SHOE. If I like a shoe, I buy it. Yeah, other people may have them, but most of the time thats how you see the shoe. It's advertising, if you see someone in the street wearing the shoe, you might want it yourself yet you've never seen it before. I bet if alot of people didn't wear converse in the first place, most of you wouldn't have known they even existed.

And yeah, some people do find them pretty uncomfortable. I have a narrow foot, so they fit my feet perfectly. They may squish other peoples feet, but not everyones feet are the same length/width.

[WhatDidIdoNow?]

To the people saying about £70 being a waste, I've spent over £100 on trainers...

[Victimized]

I got a pair of Globes from eBay for £10 and they were brand new and are now my favourite pair, so why splash out that much i don't no?

[FREWIN]

i spent close 2 £150 on airmax b4

[MsTanya]

i spent close 2 £150 on airmax b4
does that make you cool? how much you payed for them?

[FREWIN]

no, just statin wut price i paid...

[i luv rosie]

I also wonder why everyone automaticly think converse as the Chuck Taylor.
My favorite type of converse are these.

[N!ck]

I think Converse are awefull, a sock with a sole on them.

[samsaBEAR]

Yeah apart from the fact that they retail at £35 "/

Ok, that's just sad, why waste £150 on a pair of trainers that'll just get ripped/scuffed/whatever in like 6-7 months? [Unless you don't wear them, then it's still a waste of money] Lmao, trying to be cool, 'Oh look at me, I spent £150 on a pair of trainers, that makes me hard and a gangster'. I laugh at your stupidness

[FREWIN]

actualy i bought them for going 2 ma dads funeral...

Rofl, can I see a pic, i'm not sure i've seen these..

What do you mean by that? So because an artist in Hip Hop wears a certain brand of trainer/shoe your not going to wear them? Alot of skating brands are in the Hip Hop scene aswell.

[iluvben]

Well from what I know Air max is only trainers , so don't be getting ratty with me boy , ok ?

[edible]

Dont be mean to Ryan.

I like converse tbh. But i dont wear them because everyone else does.
I wear them cos i want to be, and that it suits me.

I mean i dont label myself as anything. I'll just be me.

I can dress girly, and look nice.
I can dress normal and look coolio. Its a wee bit funny.

I mean no1 who i've known from year 6 to no has worn or liked converse.
I mean like friends. I know plenty of people who like converse.

If you think people that wear converse are scene and follow the trends. Then think about the people dont do that.

I like vans, and dolly shoes :D And Cambus ones.
Plus whoever posted the pic of the boots for converse. I like the ones without them stupid flaps, they're so nice and comfy..

But the flaps just look BAD!

[samsaBEAR]

Yeah, I assume they made them with the flaps to entice Chav-ettes or something. I think they look plain tacky

[i luv rosie]

I never said I wouldn't wear them because of that. I just find them quite ugly.

[NekkLe]

If your assuming that Converse are for indie/emo or whatever your trying to follow, there not "/ Converse were worn by alot of people in Hip Hop.

I doubt most people wouldn't have worn them if they didn't see there favorite bands/artists wear them in the first place.

[Punky]

I hate when people assume that everyone who wears converse is doing it just to fit in or follow a trend. I have 3 pairs and I wear them 'cause I like them not 'cause I've seen loads of other people wear them... Where I live there's hardly anyone who wears them anyway. I likethem cause they're comfy and there's so many different colours and styles.

I'm not trying to follow anything, I'm only stating my opinion. I wanted a pair because I liked the style, not because I wanted to fit in with anybody else

[i luv ross]

UGLYYYYY.

[Jane]

LOL @ all ppl hu voted hot. 2 person above. y wear dem if dey uncomfy? ma K-swiss ownz converse. dey luk bril + r real comfy!!!

I never said that I wore them.

[Nia12]

One of my m8s are crazy about them. but i think there horrible , no offence to people that like them :D XXX

[-Soph-]

Myself I like them, They're comfortable, Reasonably cheap, And you can get them in quite a few styles..

So yeah, I think they're okay..

[a:p]

I like them, but if you're going to buy them why not get a design that goes more with you're personality. I'd rather have a neon, rainbow pair than just black ones.

[samsaBEAR]

I agree, plus the black/navy blue ones are the ones people always get [with white soles] have you noticed that? I got my Jade Green converse last Christmas, and I've only seen one person with the same colour

[hellogoodbye]

they're okay. i like random designs and plain [:

[louder]

my views on converse have changed. i don't wear my pair anymore, i don't see how i ever did.. everytime i see a pair of converse they seem uglier.
