I used to have a pair of Chuck Taylor's as a kid (and that was a while ago) as great cheap knock around shoes. Price has gone up a fair bit, but these monochrome shoes look great; classic styling, updated a bit.
One small caveat; these shoes have little internal padding and have a lot more room inside than normal software in the same size. The retailer I purchased from mentioned they are about a 1/2 size larger than other shoes.
