My Converse Obsession!

logo.gif

Every friend of mine knows about my Converse All-Star shoes obsession! :)

I mean if they ever decide to open a converse store in Jordan or Kuwait. I think they should ask me to manage it or run it and pay me for the promotion. Let me try and list the chucks I’ve collected so far:

From CHUCK TAYLOR® CLASSICS:

  • Chuck Taylor® All Star® Black Monochrome Unisex Hi [#M3310], Canvas

    The image “http://www.converse.com/LiveFiles/1/127/M3310_220.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

    I got this one when I first moved to Jordan back in September 2005, I saw an add on TV where the vocalist of the rock band H.I.M. Ville Valo was wearing them.

  • Chuck Taylor® All Star® Maroon Unisex Low [#M9691], Canvas

    The image “http://www.converse.com/LiveFiles/1/531/M9691_220.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

    I bought this one from Shoebox@Champions in Amman for 68 JD!

From CHUCK TAYLOR® SPECIALTY:

  • Chuck Taylor® All Star® 3 Strap Black Unisex Low [#1U416], Leather

    The image “http://www.converse.com/LiveFiles/1/1819/1U416_220.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

    I got this one from The Athlete’s Foot, Marina Mall -Kuwait branch, it’s fucking amazing.. I have it for 6 months now, it started to get torn apart and so on from the inside but I still love it and wear it.

  • Chuck Taylor® All Star® Specialty Cyber Yellow Unisex Low [#1X868], Canvas

    The image “http://www.converse.com/LiveFiles/1/2353/1X868_220.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

    I also got this one from Shoebox@Champions as well for the same price as the Maroon one.

From CHUCK TAYLOR® VARVATOS and WEB EXCLUSIVES:

  • Chuck Taylor® All Star® Slip Moss Green Unisex Slip [#1S318], Canvas

    The image “http://www.converse.com/LiveFiles/1/1258/1S318_220.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

    My sister sent me this one with Samia last October as a surprise. and I love it.

I’ve had more in my life since I was a kid, I was counting them the other day and found out that I had around 16 pairs…

I currently use 5-6 pairs, anyways the latest one I got yesterday, from the Converse Australia collection (I always get american or worldwide models):

Chuck Taylor® All Star® HI Specialty Fabric (corduroy/cornstalk)

1396-256810-p.jpg

and planning to get this and this next time.

If you’re obsessed with Converse too let me know which ones do you have and why do you like them?

I personally like them because they’re comfortable, they get along with anything I wear, they resist and last for long and reflect how simple a person can look with them on, plus that some of my favorite rock stars/bands wear them.

    dozz; you either check footaction in shaha complex in Kuwait (I don’t know where do yo come from) or order online. they have small sizes.

    EXzombie; Shaha complex. 2nd floor, footaction for 15 KD, in amman it’s a rip-off, they sell it for like 70 or 80 JD.

    omar; yeah right :P

  15. Jordan Mazz Says:

  16. Slovenia Beti Says:

    Converse totally rock! I have a pair of the black high tops (like the ones in the 1st pic)… Need to get a new pair soon though, as i’ve been wearing them for about 6 years now…But I can’t bring myself to part with them, as even though they are all worn out, they are SOOOOOOO comfy beyond belief…
    Cheers!

  17. Jordan wedz Says:

  18. United Arab Emirates Semsem Says:

    welak OMG! SHEWS

  20. Egypt Earth Child ® Says:

    shoeses?

  21. Europe omar Says:

    OMG SHEWS!

    LOOOOOOOOOL @ Hiba

  22. United States Mr. Chuck Taylor Says:

    Man, Now i feel like a real addict. I thought you guys were talking real numbers in here. I own and utilize 30 pairs of converse. I am trying to spread the word about converse to the people around me but they are more concerned about Jordans and Forces. Oh Well.

  23. United States Hala Says:

    I just love Converse. It is always hard for me to shop for shoes, but Converse makes it all easy :P

  24. Jordan sash_9002 Says:

    Hey i do have the same style shoes but i’ve never know that the brand would make a deffirance anyway in jordan they are very expensive & in other countries they r for like 60$ atmost or so … but i like them 2 & i guess iam gonna buy a bunch of them soon

  25. Jordan Duchess Says:

    Hey Moey! just for the record when you say it’s for 20 kuwait dinar in kuwait then you should take in consideration that each kuwaiti dinar = 2 jds and sth …. so it’s around 45 jd … PLUS at champions they sell it for 57!!!!!!!!!! so it’s not much of a differance … you know costs of the flight to kuwait =D plus i bought navy chuck taylor long ones from champions here … i ordered the red,the black and the green ones from JC PENNY by aramex ;)

  26. Jordan Moey Says:

    read the post again, I said 20 JD not KD.

    20 JD is 8 KD almost, so 45 is also a double rip off, basically items get shipped thru aramex (jordanian company in origin) so the cost to get the converse items from the middle east port dubai to amman is even cheaper than sending to kuwait. and 45 is the reduced price, I can get you at least 5 friends of mine and a photo of a receipt that proves that such shoes are 75 JORDANIAN dinars and up.

  27. United States Darla Says:

    i’ve got four pairs of chuck high tops, i had three pairs of non-chuck lowtops, but one got stolen and i gave one away, so now i’ve only got one. BUT i have converse GLASSES. beat that. they’re blue ^-^

    In the Maadi Grand Mall, in the very bottom floor there is a Store called “Sport Line” they have some Converse in there.. in the same mall in the 4th floor there is another store called “Jamaica” they also sell Converse.
