Converse question

LemonBreeland · 01/06/2013 12:58

I'm finally getting around to buying myself the converse I have wamted for ages. The problem is I am buying online and all the names are confusing me. I want the classic low ones, not the ones with the thinner sole.

What name do I need to look for? Is ot Chuck Taylor or all stars? What is the difference between those?

Converse Allstar low tops. The thin sole ones are called Converse Light.

Ox is Oxford, thats the type you want.

Do the CT not say that instead of allstar on the heel bit? Where are you looking? And what colour?

cocolepew · 01/06/2013 13:12

I dont think there is a difference tbh.

Yes, low top Ox. I've just bought my first pair since I was a teenager and am utterly in love with them. Mine are leather and gorgeous. :) I think I'm going to get leopard print next.
