If they aren't I'll probably have to keep the slip-on pair since it's more comfortable and easier. Ah, decisions, decisions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-240055 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 21:05:55 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 240055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MaryK - I do double knot them (have to!) but it just makes for such a lumpy knot...and also, takes even longer to put on and take off. I'm definitely looking for shorter laces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239988 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 19:54:01 +0000 MsMary 239988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MPJ, Angie gave me a great hint for too-long laces -- just do a double knot and it takes care of the extra length! (And by "double knot," I mean tie the bow making the loops longer than usual, then tie the loops together again.) It's worked like a charm for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239980 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 19:50:29 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 239980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely hate the laces on my Cons - they are about a foot too long. They look so goofy! I am going to replace them, but wish I had gone with slip-ons for convenience (from one MOTG to another). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239977 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 19:48:04 +0000 Beth 239977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for laces. They add so much to the look of the shoe:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239862 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 16:56:34 +0000 MsMary 239862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the ones with the laces, too!</p> <p>You know Target has the Converse One-Star's in chocolate on sale for $26.99 right now. I have 'em in purple and just love them. <a href="http://www.target.com/Converse-One-Star-Oxfords-Chocolate/dp/B000V5OMLM/ref=sc_qi_detaillink" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Converse.....detaillink</a></p> <p>And they have the gray for $23.99: <a href="http://www.target.com/Converse-One-Star-Oxfords-Charcoal/dp/B000V5VA8K/ref=sc_pd_gwvub_3_title" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Converse.....ub_3_title</a></p> <p>You could get both for just a tiny bit more than the "real" Cons in your post. Just sayin'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239860 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 16:50:11 +0000 Lana 239860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! They do look better, I'm just trying to decide how big of a factor the comfort difference is for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239848 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 16:33:01 +0000 Angie 239848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote the one with the white laces. Prettier </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239767 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 14:56:06 +0000 Lisa 239767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the lace pair, they are more classic looking to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239751 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 14:39:59 +0000 Tricia 239751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of each style and I prefer the ones with laces. Nice color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-converse-shoes#post-239730 Wed, 27 Oct 2010 14:16:09 +0000 Lana 239730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I find myself sadly lacking in casual shoes so I decided to order a few pair to try and I need help decided which to keep! My budget only allows for one pair at the moment, so I need them to be as versatile as possible. I'm considering these two:</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/converse-all-star-slip-chocolate" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/converse.....-chocolate</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/converse-chuck-taylor-all-star-slim-ox-chocolate" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/converse.....-chocolate</a></p> <p>The slip on are easier and faster to get on etc, as a MOTG that's good for me. I don't have to worry about the laces getting dirty or coming undone or anything. They are decently more comfortable but probably not enough to choose them because of that. The color is more faded looking, and would go better with brown or gray (but I don't have much black or gray in my wardrobe at all). The second pair is a more rich brown color that appeals to me more and a fair a mount more of my clothing is in that color family. It's a more traditional, less sloppy look and I like that they are slim. Any thoughts, opinions? Thanks ladies! </p>
