Every friend of mine knows about my Converse All-Star shoes obsession! :)

I mean if they ever decide to open a converse store in Jordan or Kuwait. I think they should ask me to manage it or run it and pay me for the promotion. Let me try and list the chucks I’ve collected so far:

From CHUCK TAYLOR® CLASSICS:

From CHUCK TAYLOR® SPECIALTY:

From CHUCK TAYLOR® VARVATOS and WEB EXCLUSIVES:

I’ve had more in my life since I was a kid, I was counting them the other day and found out that I had around 16 pairs…

I currently use 5-6 pairs, anyways the latest one I got yesterday, from the Converse Australia collection (I always get american or worldwide models):

Chuck Taylor® All Star® HI Specialty Fabric (corduroy/cornstalk)

1396-256810-p.jpg

and planning to get this and this next time.

If you’re obsessed with Converse too let me know which ones do you have and why do you like them?

I personally like them because they’re comfortable, they get along with anything I wear, they resist and last for long and reflect how simple a person can look with them on, plus that some of my favorite rock stars/bands wear them.

Flashback Report: remember the scene from I-Robot when Will Smith’s grandmother was like: wtf is that?. Hehheh The Converse was even before her time. Now thats Branding for ya!

Btw. Your method of Arabizing Logos is familiar to me. Its seems its the one that makes most sense. ALLAH iwafgik.

samia-chan
; heheh yeah, listen get me the model number from the shoe box so I can google them and see the model, its not on converse USA. and it’s not a font, I used the original logo characters. :)

Maze
; thanks man :)

dozz; you either check footaction in shaha complex in Kuwait (I don’t know where do yo come from) or order online. they have small sizes.

EXzombie; Shaha complex. 2nd floor, footaction for 15 KD, in amman it’s a rip-off, they sell it for like 70 or 80 JD.

omar; yeah right :P

Moey added these pithy words on Feb 06 07 at 7:59 am

omg! shews!

Mazz added these pithy words on Feb 06 07 at 9:42 am

Converse totally rock! I have a pair of the black high tops (like the ones in the 1st pic)… Need to get a new pair soon though, as i’ve been wearing them for about 6 years now…But I can’t bring myself to part with them, as even though they are all worn out, they are SOOOOOOO comfy beyond belief…
Cheers!

omar added these pithy words on Feb 07 07 at 5:18 am

Man, Now i feel like a real addict. I thought you guys were talking real numbers in here. I own and utilize 30 pairs of converse. I am trying to spread the word about converse to the people around me but they are more concerned about Jordans and Forces. Oh Well.

Mr. Chuck Taylor added these pithy words on Feb 09 07 at 4:33 pm

I just love Converse. It is always hard for me to shop for shoes, but Converse makes it all easy :P

Hala added these pithy words on Feb 10 07 at 5:55 am

Hey i do have the same style shoes but i’ve never know that the brand would make a deffirance anyway in jordan they are very expensive & in other countries they r for like 60$ atmost or so … but i like them 2 & i guess iam gonna buy a bunch of them soon

sash_9002 added these pithy words on Feb 11 07 at 1:12 am

Hey Moey! just for the record when you say it’s for 20 kuwait dinar in kuwait then you should take in consideration that each kuwaiti dinar = 2 jds and sth …. so it’s around 45 jd … PLUS at champions they sell it for 57!!!!!!!!!! so it’s not much of a differance … you know costs of the flight to kuwait =D plus i bought navy chuck taylor long ones from champions here … i ordered the red,the black and the green ones from JC PENNY by aramex ;)

Duchess added these pithy words on Feb 11 07 at 5:50 pm

read the post again, I said 20 JD not KD.

20 JD is 8 KD almost, so 45 is also a double rip off, basically items get shipped thru aramex (jordanian company in origin) so the cost to get the converse items from the middle east port dubai to amman is even cheaper than sending to kuwait. and 45 is the reduced price, I can get you at least 5 friends of mine and a photo of a receipt that proves that such shoes are 75 JORDANIAN dinars and up.

Moey added these pithy words on Feb 11 07 at 11:22 pm

i’ve got four pairs of chuck high tops, i had three pairs of non-chuck lowtops, but one got stolen and i gave one away, so now i’ve only got one. BUT i have converse GLASSES. beat that. they’re blue ^-^

If your looking for Converse Shoes in Egypt, I know couple of places..

I’m from Maadi so I know stores located in Maadi (for Maadi outsider don’t worry mesh hatotoho)

In the Maadi Grand Mall, in the very bottom floor there is a Store called “Sport Line” they have some Converse in there.. in the same mall in the 4th floor there is another store called “Jamaica” they also sell Converse.

I hope this tips will help you guys and girls and happy hunting for you favorite pair…

Cheers..

lousha added these pithy words on Feb 07 09 at 10:07 pm

Whoa flash from the past! I had a pair of those when I was…. fifteen! That was way back in 1985 when I was in high school. I think it was a navy pair of high tops that practically dissinagrated by ‘87. My mom threw them out when I wasn’t looking.
Seeing pictures of them again makes me want to buy another pair. Maybe another navy pair…

Stevenson added these pithy words on Feb 14 09 at 5:36 am

Whoa! I love converse sneakers! I got my first pair when I was twelve and they were several shades of green. Then I got red hightops which I wore with a tomatoe red baseball cap.
Now I’ve got two pairs:

.A dirty optical white hightops that have doodles all over them and neon green laces.

.Royal blue low tops that have black laces with silver stars on them. Love them.

I’m getting kelly green high tops next!

Hey Moey:

I have spent the past few weeks searching online for the Chuck Taylor All Star HI Specialty Fabric (corduroy/cornstalk) shoes.. I was wondering where you were able to find them! I have found one site online but it does not have the size I need and it would be the BEST anniversary gift I could give my boyfriend. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I would GREATLY appreciate it.
