"This was my first pair of converse sneakers and due to prior testaments from friends I decided to size down as I heard converse runs large. I am usually a 7.5 so I went with the 7. The shoes came is a timely fashion and I loved them right out of the box. The color was awesome. Even more vibrant in person. Lo and behold the shoes were still TOO big. I think a 6.5 would be perfect but as 1/2 sizes are not available I sent the shoes back instead of exchanging. I didn't want to get the 6's and find them too small or close. I hated sending them back as I really liked them. So buyer beware....size a whole size down...not just a 1/2."

"Just bought these in both the tangerine and the charcoal. I am usually a 7.5 to 8 and decided to size up with 8s. For some reason the tangerine ones seem to fit better than the grey ones, which are a tad bit loose, but since they lace up it's not a big deal. The tangerine ones are adorable, definitely a more vibrant orange than pictured but i love them!"
"I love Converse All-Stars! When I saw these online, I ordered them immediately. They’re a medium grey, which is so versatile. The sole is as sturdy as ever, the arch support is moderate –everything about these sneakers feels solid and built for longevity. I categorized them as “true to size,” which I believe they are. The size nine fits my foot, but there is a quirky thing happening in the toe box. There’s some extra room at the tip that gives the illusion of my feet being longer than they are, and since they’re already fairly long, this can be potentially undesirable. I measured these against my older Converse, and they’re equal, so I can’t figure out why I never noticed this before. I’m hoping that with time and wear the shoes will mold themselves to a more customized fit/appearance, but, regardless, they are extremely comfortable and practical. Highly recommend!"
