Review on Optical White πŸ‘Ÿ Chuck Taylor Canvas Sneakers by Gene Taylor

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Now that I'm grown up. not so great.

I bought these for a classic look and got exactly what I expected in that regard. What I didn't like were the uncomfortable shoes. These shoes basically have a completely flat sole with no arch support. After walking in these shoes for a few hours, my feet hurt as if walking barefoot. I had these shoes as a kid and then they didn't bother me, back problems and joint pains - I seem to have grown into them. I understand that Chuck Taylors are a classic style not worth messing around with, but would anyone complain if they made the sole a little more comfortable, or at least added a quality insole?

Pros
  • UK shoes available. See size chart for US size conversion
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
