Up to half-price Converse footwear at Amazon

Amazon has a sale on a whole range of Converse trainers, with 50% off a fair few. If you're one of those that swears by Converse All-Stars (and you actually need a new pair!) then it's well worth a look.

Several colours are available in many styles; click on a design you like to see what other colours/sizes it comes in.

  • Brilliant thanks. Just ordered a pair for £20 delivered. I've been wearing them for ages, and be-grudge paying stupid money nowadays just because they're fashionable.

    I swear by Chucks which is why I was beaming all day yesterday because I got a brand new hi top pair at a boot sale for all of 4 shiny new pounds. What a find! :T

  • YAY, I hope to find a pair of the shoes in red (not a fan of the boots).
  • aaarrrggghhh, wish I'd waited before buying my son a pair the other day! Never mind, may get myself some too!
  • For anyone interested in weightlifting there shoes are a really good entry into the world of appropriate footwear for lifting.

    In order of least expense:

    Socks - £2:rotfl:
    Hi-Tec Squash Shoes - £15
    Converse - £20
    Nike Frees - £50
    Adidas Ironworks III - £80
    Adidstar Weightlifting Shoe - £135 :eek:


    Basically you need a shoe with an incompressible heel so running shoes are a no-no
    Buy for value not cost.
    Feb Grocery = £55.87 / 80
  • Brilliant start to Christmas shopping MSE style - used a £5 voucher too which I also got as a result of info on this site! Pair of Converse for just over £18 DD will be very pleased!
