I've been buying the classic Converse chuck taylor all stars for most of my life (closing in on 50 years old). I love them and consider them to be a perfect sneaker for summertime. I decided to try the Chuck 70's, and I like the better insole as its pretty comfortable. However, there is one thing missing from the classics that I wish the 70's had. The lace loop on the tongue is missing here, and it lets the tongue slide down rather than keeping it in place via the laces. If it had that one addition, they'd be the perfect upgrade from the classics. Still, the more comfortable insole is quite nice!

I love the color of the shoe and the shiny toe gives it a nice touch! It is a little too wide for my feet but pulling the laces tighter does help. It is also a little too big so I may benefit from a smaller size but would want to try it on first. This shoe would be great for those who have wider feet and there is more room. The fabric is thick and similar to the fabric of my other Chuck Taylor shoes. The sole is a little thicker but not too thick. This will be a good everyday shoe to style with jeans or short or even a dress for women when going for a casual look. It does look a little long on my foot which I don’t like. The toe and sole is more of an off white color which looks good with the black. I could certainly see myself wearing this shoe consistently as my ... MoreI love the color of the shoe and the shiny toe gives it a nice touch!

My husband loves Converse, but his wider feet always look a bit cramped in standard width, but he was reluctant to get wide. I was super excited to find these were carried in wide, and he is obsessed with this pair! Out of the box they looked huge (he’s a 12 wide), but he thought they felt true to size for Converse (which he feels typically run a bit long) and of course even more comfortable than normal for him in the wide width. The white is so classic cool and looks great with so much. Perfect summer shoe. He’s also excited to twin with our preschooler who also has white Converse. In our experience they clean up relatively well, even for white shoes. Highly recommend.

I love these! I am so happy they finally came out with a wide pair so I can wear them too. I’ve always loved the look of converse. When I was younger I tried jamming my wide feet into the regular ones on multiple occasions but my feet always hurt like crazy afterwards. Not anymore! In my opinion it does run a little bit long, but it is so comfortable. The only thing I would change is the sheen of the rubber. I’m not a huge fan of it being so glossy but that’s just my personal preference. Thank you for selling them in wide now!
I will start by saying I have always been a fan of the timeless Chuck Taylor. However, I never wore a pair because I always equated them with the old school high-top (sweet, timeless shoe, but I never liked the feel on my ankles). The 70's give me everything I like about the look of the timeless shoe AND feel free at the ankle. Win win. I have the white pair with subtle blue and red lines. They have become a go-to shoe for a fresh, clean and casual look. They are super convenient to throw on with shorts or jeans to run out for errands and comfortable enough for a trip to the park or a walk around the neighborhood with the kiddos.The white was a little risky, especially with young kids, but so far the canvas has stayed clean. Also, I think a little wear on the guys ... MoreI will start by saying I have always been a fan of the timeless Chuck Taylor.

Also, I think a little wear on the guys will just add to their character.I typically don't wear a wide, which my pair is, but the width in this shoe is perfect. I think had I gone with a regular fit they might be a bit too narrow for my comfort.
These shoes fit great. They feel great on my feet. Unfortunately, the tongue slides off the top of your foot towards the outside of your foot on both feet. I have another pair of Chuck that are not the 70s they are cheaper shoe, but the tongue doesn’t move on those. that’s my only complaint. and understand I’m almost 60 years old. I wore these shoes in the 70s I miss the old kind. I probably won’t buy another pair of 70s. But I will buy the cheaper ones
The extra cushion support compared to the classic converses are very noticeable. Definitely less fatigue and more comfortable to walk in - especially when they’re brand new.The wider width is great for the toe space, and if you have a bunion- these are the way to go. Does not look wider than the regular width. Generally wear a 9.5 men’s (because of a broken toe that has arthritis) in other regular width shoes and with these wide shoes- went with a 9, and they are comfortable.
These are the most comfortable converse I’ve ever worn!!I’m a converse girl. Since high school, I’ve alternated between the converse all-star high tops and low tops (always white of course!). I know how they fit and feel, and they are comfortable. I was excited to try this new style because it looked just like my favorites that I always buy, but felt like they had a lot better cushion on the inside. This makes a difference when you’re wearing them and are walking all day. They felt super comfortable right when I put them on. The fit was roomy and the width felt great. My feet didn’t hurt at all after the first time I wore them, even though I was on my feet and walking for over 8 hours (and they did not have to be broken in either). These are definitely the most ... MoreThese are the most comfortable converse I’ve ever worn!!I’m a converse girl.

These will be my new go-to pair of shoes.
The Chuck 70 wide comes with a vintage look to it but has the same classic feel the original Chuck converse has. The shuttle cream shade of the insole makes the converse chuck look broken in but the white upper makes it look new and stand out even further. The subtle shade of cream also allows you to wear them with a wider range of colors than a regular all white pair. Overall the vintage look on the Chuck Wide 70 looks incredible and will get you a ton of compliments.
Usually I never have sizing issues with my Cons. When it says, "runs a little large" that usually just means my wide feet are comfy. These are my first "Vintage Chucks" and hoodaddy, they are NARROW. Length is standard, but you better have very thin feet... The eyelets dig into my toe bend and the side rubber squishes my foot over the sides to look like a muffintop...Unfortunately, my confidence that my Cons always fit means I missed my return window, so I'm stuck trying to figure out how to make them look good and be comfortable enough to wear in hopes the fabric softens up to be wearable.The color is perfect for fall (tawny owl/egret) so I was very excited to start breaking in a new pair-- especially since my last pair bit the dust last weekend...Alas, I ... MoreUsually I never have sizing issues with my Cons.
