If you are looking for a comfortable and stylish sneaker then the Jack Purcell is the way to go (much more comfortable then regular Converse)These sneakers are super cute with a rolled jean or shorts. The olive color is very on trend this season and as a result I have received a bunch of compliments. The arch support is good - not great. I wouldn't wear these on a 10 mile hike but for tooling around for the day, they are fine. You really can't go wrong with the Jack Purcell.

Buy a size smaller than you normally wear. I wear 8 but i bought a 7 in these. They are really fun slides. I got them in blue and red and get compliments all the time!
Much more comfortable than I originally thought. I've owned Converse All-Stars before but rarely wore them because my feet would hurt. These shoes are a classic summer shoe.

Love this shoe and color! Generally, Chucks are a tad bigger than your usual shoe size so make sure you order a half size smaller than you think you'll need. Love Zappos, too!
Ok, the sizing for these shoes is vastly different from most shoes, and as such, the Zappos order page is very misleading. The sizing drop down menu says "Select Women's Size" but in reality, Chuck Taylor sizes are Unisex, corresponding to men's sizing numbers. What this means is that if I wear a size 9 women's, I need to convert to size 7 men's. Then, because Chuck Taylor shoes run a half size large, I have to go to a 6.5, which Zappos does not carry. I think this shoe is missed categorized as woman's. The smallest size offered presently is 7.5, which I am wearing right this moment. They feel rather large on my feet, which are used to wearing size 9 woman's shoes. Since I really want these shoes, I may wear them a little big, but I just wanted to note that it seems like the majority of women will not be able to wear these shoes in any of the sizes that Zappos currently carries (7.5-12).

Ordered 11 pairs of this shoe for my destination wedding. They are just like all converse I've owned in that they run 0.5-1 size big so order small. The color, quality and look were perfect. Zappos went above and beyond in the service department and I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Nice shoes but much longer than expected. I wear a size 16 in most brands of shoes but these felt as though they my be a whole size and half too big! Gonna return them for a smaller size.

Ouch! Tide it so it wouldn't look so wide but it ended up giving me blisters. Great look but no arch support of course and the inner parts rub onto your feet causing irritation/blister after a while. Great look though, better on your feet than the photo.

Felt a bit small, I was wearing a 6, and I had tons of room to the point of my shoe coming off, got a six in these, barely any toe room. Still thinking about whether to return them for a bigger size. I really can't say about support because i switch out the insoles with orthotics. It's a great shoe, but if your used to shoes with thick soles like me, it may feel a bit strange for a while.

I love the look of these sneakers, unfortunately they were not very comfortable at first. The first time I wore them I had two pretty bad blisters on the backs of my ankles. On my second attempt to wear them, I covered up the ankles pretty well with band aids. Although it was a long walking day (about 4 hours total), my two baby toes got pretty bad blisters. I am a fighter by nature, so on my third attempt, I covered all possible areas with band aids and they were fine. As a woman, I am used to a little pain for fashion's sake. However, for sneakers, I would definitely expect a little less breaking in. I still love how they look, and I get a lot of compliments.
I really love Zappos. I get excited to see what the new styles are of my favorite brands. One brand that I must and always go to first is Converse. I am head over the hills for Converse. The very disappointing thing, that almost breaks my heart, is that the one brand that I go to, Converse that usually have my size, does not have my size (Sizes 11.5 12). So, no, I would not know the overall score or the comfort score of this awesome shoe. I do not like that the designers who design now do not make the new more feminine shoes in sizes 11.5 and 12. I am so shocked that Zappos Converse does not have my size, not even size 11.5! I really wish there was a way that Zappos could get the new more feminine shoes for Converse in size 11.5! So Sad Customer. I still love Zappos.

This is a super comfortable t-shirt. It's sized pretty well, so there's no need to order a size up or down. I will definitely be buying a few more of these!

I bought these for my wife and her sister (pink and black) and they love them. The sizes are pretty exact and they both said the shoes were comfortable

I love Converse. I have wide feet these shoes are perfect for me. Love to pop them on and run out the door. And I love Zappos too!
Chucks are a classic. Never fails. Zappos customer service makes them even better. Very happy with my purchase.

These are my first pair of Chucks and I will definitely be getting more! First pair was too big so I exchanged for one full size down. Very comfortable and not too stiff out of the box. I wear an orthotic for arch support and unfortunately they did not fit in this shoe but I stuck a Dr. Scholls short insert in there and I was fine. I get so many compliments on these! And of course, love the awesome customer service!

It's been many years since I had a pair of Chuck Taylors but when I saw this color, I just had to have them! I received them today and they are just as comfortable as i remember! The color is awesome! I ordered the neon peach color too! Love them! The blue looks just like it did online. Waiting on the orange ones. Fit perfect and I ordered my normal size.

These shoes look great with any type of bottoms. The high tops are versatile in that you can wear them with bootcut jeans, skirts, or shorts. It's all in how you style the outfit that will allow you to pull off these cheery pink chucks. Love the color, am thinking of studding them or bleaching them in a couple years. :)

Awesome shoes true to size fit daughter is a basketball player wore these with her prom dress to dance in She rocked 'em! Customer service was awesome never received such great care! Sent a card a everything just the best first time using won't be last!
I'm glad I read the reviews first. I've been wearing classi high tops and low tops my whole life and figured that everyone who had size issues must not be familar with Chuck's. However the suggestion to order one size down was overwhelming so I took the chance and did and everyone was correct. They run about a whole size big. In my classics I wear a women's 9 and I ordered a Women's 8. They fit perfectly. Great cute shoe too. Totally satisfied.
