  • I can't find any for that price any more :( I'm a size 8-9.5. Still, it's a great bargain for anyone that got a pair :)

    Are you sure that's true? Wanted to get my wife a pair, but they only have size 4 and she is a 5. Wondering if the size 4 might fit her now?

    When you look at the label inside Converse (and on the box iirc) it says mens, women (wo's), UK, Euro and cm - mens and womens only applies to the US where size numbers do differ.

    I find they come slightly larger then true size. I live in Converse and bought quite a few pairs in Florida last year and although I usually buy a size 7 which are very comfortable, I found that a 6 fitted perfectly well (luckily, as they were in a colour I'd really wanted for ages and they didn't have a 7).

    Regarding sizing - I bought a UK 6 which is my usual size. This normally corresponds to a European 39. I checked (after buying them!) and found they were equivalent to a Eur 40. They will definitely be too big so if someone needs a Eur 40 in red PM me and you can have them for the £9!

    Mine upstairs are a UK 5.5 Euro 38, wait till you get them and check the sizing, I am normally UK 5.5/Euro 39, slightly confusing, I think it is the translation from US sizing that doesn't quite work out!! The ones I have are slightly snug and get stolen by my daughter!

    I have bought pairs from both UK and US before, a size 6 fits me fine.
