My Indy style chuck taylors!
I used to be a big wearer of Chuck Taylor's before I got my AB Aldens and have pretty much worn them everywhere since. Today however at the Converse shop down near the Gold Coast I found these, brown leather high tops with a moc toe, and had to buy them. I think I will put some brown laces on them however. Not bad I thought, what do you guys reckon...worth a wear?
And next to my AB Aldens

Kind of look like high top boat shoes.

Chuck Jones'? I had to check these out. That is pretty cool. I'm a big fan of the brown and gold laces, though. I have 'em on my Corcoran jump boots. They look great on any brown shoe, really.

Re: My Indy style chuck taylors!
Those made me chuckle.
\Other than 'RedBall Jets', Chuck Taylors were what we wore all summer long...high AND low top. They're both 'old school'.
Never seen a pair like these, though! NEAT find!

Re: My Indy style chuck taylors!
No sign of it nor the moc toe on the customization page on the Converse website. *searching...*
Re: My Indy style chuck taylors!
Does anywhere know where to get these NOW? The only places I can find have them back ordered until October.

I"m glad you guys got a laugh out of them. They had a few pairs where I bought them from so I'm a little surprised they're not more readily available over there. Cheers for the comments guys

Re: My Indy style chuck taylors!
I would leave the laces the way they are, they give a nice contrast, but to each his own. Nice find by the way.
