Converse no longer comfy. What can I wear instead?

I'm on my 3rd pair of silver converse. I love them, they go with everything. But I'm finding that they're not supportive enough and they're feeling too narrow.
What can you recommend as a replacement? I have wide feet, and am comfiest in Birkies, but soon it will be cold and rainy!

Superga here as well-all I've worn for about 8 years. Love them. Cut lower on the foot too so look better than converse with shorts and skirts.

I am a 6 too but they have weird half sizes so you are best go and try them on.my feet are narrow so I get 38.5.

No use for the wider of feet, but if arch support/cushioning is the issue, I am very pleased with my Taylored for Taylors insoles.

Beautiful petrol blue colour. But couldn't find silver, and I do need silver.

Nice!

YY Superga. I find them slightly generous for size - I'm generally an 8.5-9 but a Spuerga 8 is perfect. I've lived in them all summer.
