Same great style & sizing as the original Chucks but with the added comfort using the Nike Lunarlon insole for cushioning which is amazing. The shoe also has a non-slip tongue which means that the tongue of the shoe is held in the center of the shoe by elastic on each side (not a new concept but nice to see it added). Another addition is the micro-suede lining which also adds to the comfort of these shoes. These come with both the black laces as seen in the photo and white laces which make these look more like the originals. There's no black stripe on the white rubber side like the originals but that's minor and keeps the look slightly more modern. Highly recommend these shoes. I've got them in 3 colors and hope that converse adds additional color in the future.

Ok I am older with not the greatest feet. I have worn Chucks in the past got a bigger size and used insoles for extra padding. Still could not wear them all day. These are no the same. I tend to wear a 7.5, bought a 7.5; length is good, fit is narrow, great support. Mind you I still have yet to spend the entire day on my feet but I would give it a try which I never would have done before. Cons...I miss the styling of the originals. I miss the line that goes around the toe of the shoe, wish the toe was bit wider. Overall - 5 because I can wear them and be comfortable Comfort - 4 - tight around the toe and the material is a bit thicker so your feet get hot Style - 3 I want the line, white threading and silver eye holes. It breaks up the shoe and doesn't make you feet look so huge. Sorry for the rambling but I hate reviews that seem to miss information. Hope this helps and answers your questions.

I ordered these thinking they would be (and fit like) the original Chucks. I usually need a 9 in the original Chucks. I could not even get my foot into these. It seems that they just added the extra thick insole into a the original shoe, without allowing room for it. The toe area was extremely shallow and I could not get my toes into it. I don't think a larger size would have made any difference. Unfortunately, I had to return them. It was a nice idea...

Great update to a classic shoe. Superior support (i.e. around the ankle), far better cushioning...they just feel better overall. Make no mistake, I'm a big fan of the original Chucks, but they were never the most comfortable shoe. I'd argue they might LOOK a little better than the new ones, but they certainly didn't feel better. Reading the other reviews here - I'm a little perplexed by all the customers who found them too small. As I type this, I have in front of me a new pair of original Chucks (which, incidentally, are still for sale here) and a pair of the updated version. Both 9's. And they are exactly the same size. Now, I don't doubt the experiences of these folks. Perhaps Converse has an issue with quality control? Or maybe these customers are interpreting the way the new model fits differently than I do. Because of the added support/cushioning, they hug the foot in a way the old model didn't. So, they do feel different. But my foot certainly fits comfortably in both versions. YMMV, I suppose.

I love these shoes! But had to send them back because they were too small. I wear an 8 in regular Chuck's, I have many pairs! Ordered my regular 8 and they were too small to be comfortable. Ordering the 8&1/2 and I'm sure they will be great!

I haven't worn a pair of Converse since I was in high school because they began to seriously hurt my feet. When I heard they were reinventing the All Star, I knew I had to try them. In short, I have not been disappointed. These still do not offer a great deal of support, but the new lunarlon insole has increased the comfort level greatly. I am happy to say I can finally wear my Chucks again.

Got these for my husband for Christmas and he is absolutely in love with them. They are super comfortable and supportive in contrast to the old Converse. Just a note, my husband wears a solid size 10. The description says to order a half size smaller so I ordered a 9.5. They were way too small and he had to exchange for the 10.

Bought for grandson, age 12. He loves chuck Taylor so I always buy this brand for him. He says the fit is awesome, plenty of toe room. The arch feels great as does the width. Thanks Zappo for another great product/service.

Surprisingly comfortable! I bought theses for summer casual wear. I have a wide foot with a high arch; I was nervous that the shoe would feel tight. Thankfully the with was not narrow. There is a lot of cushion in the foot bed! Much more comfortable than my Converse All Stars. I would definitely recommend!

I've always loved Chuck's due to their classic style, but I had to give them up because ... well their old, classic style. There was no support built into them, and they just killed me feet after a few hours. These new redesigned Chuck's are an awesome upgrade to the classics. They still look great. They have some nice cushion built in. My feet are happy all day. I won't go hiking or play any kind of sports in them, but for casual shoe wearing needs these Chuck's are great.

Great shoe especially if you like the Chuck Taylors. Got the Nike sole editions super comfortable for a Chuck. Great shoe to dress up or down. Goes with everything.

These chucks are super cute and all white (no red or black labels) so they are classic and go with everything. However, they do run large so order down from your normal size.

I stopped wearing Chucks years ago because of the lack of arch support. When I heard a out the Chuck II, i had to try them. Other stores had them at 70 to 80 bucks, but I got my pair from Zappos at 40 bucks. So happy, bought a second pair.

So much better than the standard Chucks. Much better padding on the sole and tongue. They've held up better as well.

These are much more comfortable than the traditional converse sneakers. The sole overall feels sturdier and the insole is definitely more comfortable. My only complaint is that the canvas upper seems to be thicker and digs into the top of my foot where the shoe bends. I wore them a few times a week to work all last summer and never really felt like this got any better. I have wide feet, so going up a half size may solve this problem.
