Converse Light - not as good as the original?

[princelypurpleparrot]

I treated myself to a pair of Converse Light about 4m ago. I've worn them alot, and have noticed that the heels are starting to wear through already.

I've got 4 other pairs of All Stars that I've had for 5-7 years and seem to be wearing fine. So are these new ones just a bit more rubbish?

Yes. But no cheaper! Thin underfoot too, I find

I think they're fairly comfy (hence me wearing them alot) but they were expensive, especially as all my other pairs are from various other countries and the most expensive pair was about £20....
