Converse Allstars, is it ok to re-visit them?

[308mate]

And if so, what jeans should I wear with them? Boot cut? Straight?

I feel myself drawn back to them, but I want to get it right. The memory of these trainers is not to be trifled with.

Having said that, my last pair were aqua in colour.

Black tight jeans.

Colour of Converse? Pfft, Meh etc. You paint them yourself.

Are you an EMO?

No, see thats the thing. Far from it. I couldnt do the black drain pipes.

I though some destroyed-look, 2" too long, boot cut Diesel or 'crombies might be ok?

There are 2 or 3 people riding recumbent cycles around here that wear them.

Looking good....

If you can remember them from first time around, you're too old to wear them now. Sorry, but the truth can be painful sometimes.

Fair point. Im not sure 1987 counts as "first time around though".

I'm still wearing them since 1987.

I only threw out my All-Stars from 1987 a year or so ago, thinking I'd never wear them again. They had smiley faces drawn on the toe caps and all.

However I now realise it's a thin line between being achingly trendy, and looking like a dick.
