      Apparently all new 70s releases have a new, massively cushioned and removable OrthoLite insole. The insole on older releases is thinner, glued and not removable.

      On the heel it's more than twice the thickness of the old one.

      Additionally the blue coloured footbed is padded as well!

      So the new 70s Chucks are even more comfortable than the already nice previous 70s iterations.

        Swapped the stock cotton laces for some Red Wing nylon ones. So much better now.

                  Cheers, mate! I did the same on my other leather pair and I'm very happy with the results. The RW laces are easier to tie and hold my feet much better in place. Highy recommendable!

                    Have any of you found a place to buy replacement laces for Chuck Taylor 70s?  I bought some off Converse's website but the ones they sent were the all-star laces, which just aren't as good.

                    I found some sites online but don't know if they're reputable.

                                  both patterns are amazing. but i'm more hi tops than low, so it was a pretty straightforward choice for me.

                                        Just scored some black Jack Purcells with black laces from ssense.com for $38 down from $65.  Not sure why they were so steeply discounted.

                                          Sadly the Jack Purcells didn’t work out. Converse’s size cart says they should be TTS but that wasn’t the case.  They’re more in line with Chucks. Fortunately they do free returns. Unfortunately they don’t have any in my size.

                                          So I got these instead.  I think they’re much better…
