I want to get some converses

I wanted to get converse for about a year and a half or two years. My mum finaly let me get them. I am 16 by the way. So my has finaly let me get converses but she is going to pay for them. I am so excited are waiting wanting them for so long. My mums excuse for not letting me get them was they are not proper shoes like your feet will be cold in the winter so she's letting me get them in the summer. So summer is aproching. I was wondering were can i get a good deal on covneres.


Thanks

    i saw some in my local sports world, they were about £20. They didn't have a great range of colours (white, blue or black i think). Looked online but they are showing as £35, if there's a branch near you have a look.

  • are converse cool again then? I've just dug my 13 year old converse 1-stars out from under the stairs and they still fit fine - can I start wearing them again? :D

    mine were about £25 from either JJB or JD Sports, can't remember which, but as I said, it was a while ago ;)
