I want to start this off by saying that I've been wearing Converse for a few decades now, and I have a pair that I've had since I graduated high school in 2006. I bought them to wear to work and everyday and I'm really disappointed. I received them less than 6 months ago and they are already falling apart, I'm on my feet 11+ hours a day and while they are very comfortable they really aren't durable, the toe box and outsole are already coming loose. I would have thought that as a "Tourist" they would be stronger and better built, but I don't think so.
