How old is your Chuck Taylors pair you still wear on a daily basis?
 

Mine was 2,5 years and i dumped it. Damn, gotta get a new pair.

I have probably 8-9 pairs in diff colours , after a while I got tired of them. Hard to do shows in them, because they are not that comfortable for walking around all day:winkwink:

Pimpin' ain't easy :)

Good ROI, Chuck

I have 3 pair, the newest is about 2 years old, I wear em pretty much daily...

added the chuck simple details to my line up in feb, well bought.

I've worn many a pair of chucks over the years. I also have gone through some vans, etc.

I think probably of what's out there in a flat canvas sneaker I think Macbeth's are where it's at:

Visually they are all kinda the same, but the Macbeth's seem to have a tad more cushion and support, which at the end of a long day hoofin it can go a long way.



Best sneakers I ever had were NM70's

Company went under a few years ago, but i wore those things till the soles wore through. They were that awesome.

If you still have the Chucks' that say "Made in the USA" on the back label, you got a collectable there :)

Like 15 yo

when I see a girl wearing Chuck Taylors she immediately is cooler in my book.

I wore those ones in high school,not anymore after.

Dude sounds like a flight attendant giving the speech before take off.

I have an all black pair of hi top Chucks that are 15 years old. My all black lo tops are 5 years old or so and I wear those most of the time.

I've got 3-4 more pairs that have been purchased in the past few years.

Might have to go out a grab a new pair now. Thanks for the thread.

Don't have.

Milano, Italain keds, not Chucks but still pretty hot, eh?

They sell look-alikes here on the local market, and it costs around 3-4euros/pair :)

Absolutely! :thumbsup

Fuck, look-alikes are 20 EUR here!

I've been wearing chucks since 1984. I think the longest I kept a pair before throwing them out was about 15 years.

My kids all have their first pair of Chucks too. They grow out of them quickly, so thankfully Target has an exclusive One Star line that are a bit less cashwise.

it looks like this:

PSA: wash your chucks, people.

nothing wrong with running em through the wash eh.

i have a pet peeve about disgusting, walking petri dishes with laces, so i'd appreciate it.

I have a couple pairs 2 black, 1 brown, 1 blue, 1 sailor jerry, 1 blue plaid, 1 grey plaid.

My girl makes sure they always have a white toe cap and clean laces.


Chucks are cooler than Jack Purcells.

Just an update :)

Chucks do not get thrown out... I have pairs still around from high school...

I cant afford shoes... I live my life barefoot

knees up in a poo!

With all respect that pair was just nearly reaped apart and the smell was real strong! :)

Used them to play drums. Twisted my ankle with them too. Overall, cool story.
