I know not everyone likes any of them but if you do, which do you like best?

Converse for myself

DP is a Van wearer. I don't think they are as nice for women personally.

ToastofWar · 24/05/2012 16:28

Same as overmydeadbody.

DollysDrawers · 24/05/2012 16:28

I do like Superga but I seem to be seeing them everywhere just now!

Vans or etnies, have spent the last ten years in them!

In that genre, Ash Wink

Is that cheating?

Converse all the way. Smile

Superga! A little more summery?

Bletchley · 24/05/2012 18:39

I have always stuck to Converse but DS says his Vans are much more springy (he wears both).

redlac · 24/05/2012 18:41

Converse for me, vans for DH

PersonalClown · 24/05/2012 18:43

Converse for summer/warm autumn, Vans for Winter/cold spring.

2 pairs of Vans and 6 pairs of Converse.
(only to lack of fundsGrin)

Converse, converse, converse. I know they can be perceived as twee, but I love them. And everyone who wears them can then add something on in their outfit to make themself look unique to them.
They are my go to basic for evry day.

I have tried superga, but they just feel too clumpy for me and I haven't found a colour way I like. This is just my opinion.

Spookey80 · 24/05/2012 20:14

Can you tell my fave?!!!!

ChablisLover · 24/05/2012 20:32

Converse, superga or ash.

Have tried vans and they don't agree with me at all.

QueenCadbury · 24/05/2012 20:48

Converse

Converse definately, Converse are timeless, Superga are trendy.

Vans are just clumpy.

StellaAndFries · 24/05/2012 21:23

Converse.

WellBlowMe · 24/05/2012 22:00

Connies all the way.

toboldlygo · 24/05/2012 22:49

Superga. They fit my giant wide feet, Converse are too narrow.

crumpet · 24/05/2012 22:54

It's time for my beloved supergas to bite the dust. After probably 18 years. They have been fab and I'm sad to see them go. Think I had about3 pairs in different colours at one stage.

DaPrincessBride · 24/05/2012 23:43

Converse!

goingmadinthecountry · 25/05/2012 00:15

Vans are horrible for grown ups, Superga posh (and rather old) chav. Converse are classic.
