      The sole looks nice and supportive, but I can't get past the blue lip on the toe.
      Never liked that on the Jack Purcell's myself.

          Oh yeah, I finally got a pair of these the day that my LeftField NYC sweatsuit showed up.

          How do you like them?

          I agree. It's weird looking. I bought a cheap pair a few years ago just to see how I would like them and I ended up wearing them a shit ton during the summer with shorts. I wanted a new pair of all white sneakers and I didn't like the new monochrome 70s Chucks for some reason.

            I have a buddy that has a pair of the same shoes from a few years ago, he was actually able to pry off that blue lip and they look much better. On his pair they just cheaply glued it on, so it hardly is noticeable after removal.

              Owner of a pair of white JPs with the blue "smile" here.  First pair I got were half price, but a little too large.  I put up with them for a bit, but then ended up getting a pair that fit better.  The second pair were significantly lower quality e.g. rougher fabric, one ply instead of two, laces are plastic tip instead of metal tip, rubber more flimsy.  Pretty disappointing.

                They come with an Ortholite insole that has Nike Zoom technology(?).

                Makes sense. Nike and Converse are the same company and are made in the same factories.

                                  Anyone try the Chucks 2 yet? I haven't seen them in any stores.

                                        No rhyme or reason on what shoes they put them on. Oh & these are grey suedeish  lows.

                                          Agreed.  I really like the 70's chucks.

                                          As the indigo stains will attest, I've been rocking these "Made in Japan" suede Chucks the last couple of months.
