Converse gave birth to the quintessential American sneaker. Favored by athletes, rock stars and celebrities for nearly a century, the iconic 'All Star' has become synonymous with cool. Today, Converse continues to cultivate its fashion mainstay status with classic and cutting-edge styles in touch with the latest trends.
So I am a size 5 in women's, and I know that converse run large so I purchased a kids size 2 for myself. They fit perfectly! Although I'm not a fan of these running so large, I do love the shoe itself. And I also like that the kids sizes are cheaper than the adult sizes :)

Too big and painful!!
About half an inch to one inch too long. They are the same size, same style, same color I always get. But for some reason have buying like 20 pairs, of the same shoes, these are absolutely horrible! ?!?

Prefect pair of casual shoes!
I am an adult, but wear a size 4.5 to 5 in women's shoes. I originally bought the 5 in women's converse, and they were a size and a half too big. Since there is no size down in women's converse, I ventured into the kids section to find a pair that fits. I ended up purchasing a size 2 b/c even the 2.5 and 3 were too big for my feet!! I guess these run a size too big in kid sizes as well, and I still had some room to wiggle in with the size 2. After finally finding the right fit, I love these shoes. They require no break-in time as they are soft and comfortable right out of the box. I am looking forward to wearing these with maxi dresses, skinny crops, cut-offs, skirts and/or regular jeans while walking around town or trekking through the airport. Looks cute with everything and makes long-walks a breeze! I bought both the navy and black.

Great Shoes
WARNING: Chuck Taylor All Stars tend to run big. I am a petite 19 year-old and I wear a women's size 5-5.5 but I wear a kids size 2 in these shoes. I had to try on the shoes in the kids department, but the man who helped me did not make the experience awkward at all. They didn't have the color and size I was looking for in at the store so I tried on a different color for size and the shoes I wanted were ordered in the store and I received them within the week. The shoes fit great and are extremely comfortable and versatile. Great experience & great shoes!

Love the Chucks
I love the red Chucks (Converse) for my 7-year-old daughter! I appreciate the half sizes that Nordstrom offers - most sites/stores do not. Converse run a bit big, though. I should have remembered that! Size 12.5 should have been size 12.

A classic that deserves its place in footwear fashion!

Amazing shoes!!
Got these for my son and they are perfect! They are classic and cool looking for my lil man! We went down 1/2 size since Chucks tend to run big.
