I rock chucks all the time!

mostly the all black ones.. I love them because theyre a simple design and pretty much go with anything.. I buy gel inserts though so mine are comfy as hell. All I wear are chucks and authentic vans.

i think they would do fine. when i'd wear them, i wouldn't really say to myself "holy shit, these are so comfy" but at the same time they felt good enough so that i couldn't even feel that i was wearing them (aka no discomfort). after you break them in, they feel great. a little thinner than your typical nike sb but they still held up very well

Year's_End · 03-22-2011, 01:55 AM

wow i want those real badly^

well like, a lot of the time i'll wear chucks (non-jp's) to shows and they're possibly the worst possible shoe lol--completely flat-footed with no padding or support. i'd imagine sb's would be better. they're for skating ffs

Marcumac · 03-22-2011, 02:44 AM

I wear the shit out of my Top-Siders, they're about the same price as the shoes you guys posted but I have 3 pair and wear them with different outfits. I for one think they're pretty comfortable, just don't run a marathon in them.

Those Purcells look sick though, I might have to check those out.

j0hn · 03-22-2011, 02:48 AM

idk man, i don't doubt those are comfortable, i just don't think they really work for my type of style. i was thinking of getting new shoes + a good pair of insoles lol

if you guys have an Identity Board Shop they carry them there. they've been out for quite a while now but recently just blew up. i've recently seen a lot more people wearing them. but yeah these shoes are swag lol they look good in almost all the colorways i think nike hit the jackpot with these.

and jh they are extremely comfortable. if comfort is your issue, then i can tell you that i find these more comfortable than my purcells if not the same.

skinnycow · 03-22-2011, 01:08 PM

i love converse shoes, it goes great with some of my jeans

Real talk Y3's are really comfortable.

Been wearing a lot of Supra's but these being my favorite.

Also any low top vans and adidas are good for comfort.
