      Thanks Mich, I may try them on, plenty of shops near me seem to have them. I've never owned any Converse before other than some Leather Jack Purcells around 10 years ago, which were slightly small in the toe box. I have wide feet so am currently wearing PF Flyers Centre Hi.

        I also have wide flat feet but have encountered no problems with the first strings, the '70s or JP's.
        Comfort wise the 1st$ and '70s are comparable to JP's, i also take the same size in both, which is half a size up from my regular Chucks size.
        If you're in the position to try them on before buying i would certainly take that opportunity.

          purps from a few years back, still comfy as ever.  i notice on the older models the insole could be taken in & out, on the newer pairs the insole is glued in . . .

                I just ordered a pair of the 70s and then realized they sell them around the corner from me.

                Edit: they didn't have my size anyway. These seem to run kind of large. I usually wear 8.5 in Purcells and 8 fit me in the 70s.

                              Before they were Converse, they were B F Goodrich. Didn't know that until I found this picture of a pair from the 1930's:  http://imgur.com/gallery/uirxn
