Converse shoes prices in Dublin & Belfast

Hello everyone,

I'd like to ask you if you can provide me the average price of Converse shoes in Dublin and Belfast.

I'll go on holidays soon to Dublin and Belfast and was thinking about buying the converse all star chuck taylor all black model (unfortunately as a new user I can't add a link to my thread), but it the boot model one all black.

I got very good prices on the internet but if I can buy them there that would be awesome!

Many thanks in advance for your help!

    Is this the one you mean ? If so Amazon seem's to be cheapest at £30.50 (may go up before you buy them). So if you see them for less than £30 might as well buy them.
    Booo!!!

    Dublin will be more expensive then Belfast due to the fact it has a very strong Euro and because Dublin is more expensive than Belfast for most things .

    I came on here to ask about Converse, so one question, are Converses worth the extra money? I've had converse style shoes from places like New Look, but they don't last long. How long would Converses last if you wear them 5 times a week, and sometimes on weekends?

    Violetta, many thanks for the website, that's exactly what I was looking for.


    I've heard that going shopping in Belfast is cheaper than Dublin and that you can find some bargains, not sure if that's true or not and that's why I was asking in the forum about it. I can tell you that the price of coverse shoes for example are cheaper than in my country; which is not fair as I guess it should be the same around the world.


    Sharon87 regarding your question. I can tell you that it depends on the person, I find them very comfortable for travelling and walking for example, but I have friends that they find them really uncomfortable, on the other hand, I really think that they are too expensive…
    Thanks everyone for your replies! Really appreciated!
