Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars: What color are yours?

something old is new again, but I always liked the canvas Chuckie T's for their price and durability. I just picked up a new pair charcoal grey/demin hi-tops.

They are all the rage at our kids school, so they all got decked out for the coming year. Went to 3 different stores as they were flying off the shelves

converse.com has all the colors under the sun

6. how much do they charge for them now?

I remember about 15 years ago when I was young they made a comeback and I just HAD to have a pair of red ones. But I faintly remember my mom pitching a fit because they were way overpriced and when she was a kid they were quite affordable.
