    I’ve never found them to be uncomfortable, I actually like them more than most shoes because they tend to feel more natural on my feet. I think the problem for most people is that they have conditioned their feet to need arch support when naturally arch support is not a normal thing for the human foot.
    When I get shoes, I’m just looking for foot protection not support.

      The vulcanized rubber also doesn't compress very much, which is part of the reason why it's a really stable base to lift in. Take for instance, running shoes, where the rubber bounces back (purposely); that soft rubber makes for an unstable platform. With Chucks, you get that stable base along with a very short heel to toe drop. And like Chris said, people will take their shoes off to lift because it's just about the most stability you can get, aside from actual lifting shoes (which are expensive and some people see them as gimmicky).

  • @kcgunesq
    @kcgunesq 4 роки тому +697

    My guess is that when these were first introduced, they were probably the most comfortable shoes most kids had ever had. Compared to leather soled shoes or other athletic shoes of the days made of very stiff leather, these would have felt soft and flexible on day one. Also, people weighed a lot less, so extra cushioning wasn't really a thing, especially compared to leather soled shoes.

    • @Dolritto
      @Dolritto 2 роки тому +63

      Not sure about your info. Converse didn't invent anything new, as the canvas shoes with rubber soles were introduced by various brands, for example Keds had them as early as 1916, and design with rubber protector for toes and hightops were already implemented for basketball shoes for years. They only had a luck with great marketing connected to known sportsman, so the name become respected in the market. Also in the '70 as leather was for a long time not a must, leather soles started to become a somewhat premium part, nobody would pay extra for leather-soled shoes to wear them down prematurelly during sports, when rubber was grippier and more wear resistant. They already started to belong to dress shoes and premium boots.

    5:40 - Exactly. They may not be flat when new but after a few deadlifts and squat sessions they become flat but supportive and they can also be synched down very well so your foot never feels like it moves inside the shoe at all. Probably my favourite gym shoe. Avoid the 70's if you lift but get the 70's if you want a daily.

    • @tool8337
      @tool8337 10 місяців тому +1

      This is a misconception. First, this garbage has no support for your arch, heel, or toe. Yes, they are flat in the sense that the arch and toe aren't rounded like running shoes. But you need a wedged heel & arch support for proper lifting. Compare these to purpose-built lifting shoes and you'll see immediately see the problem. You'll end up with knee and hip pain if you lift in these.

      Funnily enough I was about to comment that they do 2 types of Chuck. One based on the original design from the 50's (I think) and the redesign from the 70's (between 74 to 78 I think). Also, depending on how you find them uncomfortable I find going up half a size helps. I find 9's too narrow but a 9.5 is perfect. They're also great for driving enthusiasts who like to heel and toe their manual cars.

      I live in Chucks and would not say that they are uncomfortable, but that they do not prevent fatigue. In another regard (for general use at least) they hardly feel like one is wearing a shoe so are very comfortable that way.
      There are other variations besides the classic and the 70's. I've a few chuck taylor "boots" that have more cushion in the footbeds, some chucks with removable insoles, etc.

    I only wear chucks with Dr. Scholls arch support inserts. They basically transform the most uncomfortable shoe to being one of the best looking and most comfortable shoes out there. I usually get about 4 years on a pair of chucks. The area where the lower starts to detach by the toes I glue with loctite brand crazy glue. That will usually hold for another year before the shoe is ready for the trash. I also prefer the Chuck II because they go on more like a sneaker instead of having to play around with the shoe laces everytime.

    Interesting to see what's changed for Converse over the years. As someone who wore them for years and even went through the painstaking process of removing the insoles of a few pairs, I can honestly say some things have been omitted:
    1) a very thin rubber piece that took up space in the forefoot and toebox under the insole
    2) a narrow rubber piece that was part of the heel padding under the insole
    The felt lining under the insole must be new.

  • @kaiwannagoback5712

    I think Converse changed a lot, used to be a solid thick flat rubber sole, but that must have been a long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away. I see they also make them insanely pointy-toed, like way too narrow in the toe to not squeeze. They used to have way more toe room but that seems to be a trend now with no room in the toebox, across brands and styles.

    @level27xrock 4 роки тому +21

    Nice video. I have a love/hate with the "classic" Cons nowdays. Just ain't the same since Nike buyout. The foot bed never had much to begin with but I swear the few pairs I've owned since production with Nike they're just not the same. Not even tolerable after an hour if that. Which wasn't the case ever in my Converse shoes I wore in early 2000s that were still made overseas but before Nike came into the picture. Anyways... I'd put up with the uncomfortable soles (just put in custom orthotics and boom problem solved), but what really grinds my bones is the damn felt at the bottom soles now. That is also something never on a Converse shoe before Nike... I do own a few pairs of Chuck 70s.. and while they are nice, and don't have crappy felt on the soles (and the soles are a one piece mold just like the classics used to be) they are a bit bulky and heavier. Classic Chucks are lighter and wrap and mold to your foot and you feel like you’re sometimes not wearing shoes, but were supportive enough to get you through the whole day which is what made them so great and so iconic. Now the quality has dropped a ton and the more expensive superior Chuck 70s solve the comfort issue, but at the price of its behemoth looks and mass weighing you down.

Converse should have a little drop like that, the nikes are almost barefoot feel and that’s y inlove em, chucks are not barefoot feel at all, they are stiff and unflexible and put a ton of strain behind your knee which got me injured walking . Chucks are good for low and slow walkers . They look awesome but have a terrible functionality.

    • @SPNKr16
      @SPNKr16 2 роки тому

      Flat feet require arch support. Arched feet require no arch support, but most arch support systems are compatible with arched feet nowadays. The foot collapses into the arch region requiring a flat but supportive surface to absorb all shock to comfortably return or go upward back into the foot.
      Flat feet already have a collapsed arch, the arch support literally cradles and supports the flat area absorbing shock much like mentioned above. My left foot is a bit flatter than the right and I generally prefer no arch support in all shoes. Nike Air More Uptempo basically has a mountain for arch support, at least my pair does (probably has to do with an over-pressurised air cell in the midsole beneath the insole. What I did there is use two orthotics for the heel and toebox, chopped out the arch completely. Then I chopped out the arch for the original insole, placing the original insole on top of everything I inserted beneath and it feels quite like a regular Nike high top now.

    I have bought Chucks for years. My main complaint is how they run so crazy long - they end up looking like clown shoes. I normally wear Men's 13 and fall back to 12 with Chucks. Still can look a bit funny with time. I have been buying PF Flyers instead for a little more cushion and normal sizing.

      My prob is I'm a wide 12.5 so I have to get 13's since they started to run narrower in the toes a few years back. Only bought one pair since they did that

    Yeah I wear my vans almost everyday, they are sooooo comfortable, I can walk for hours in my vans, but my convers I can't wear long or not for walks at least, you have no support, they are so thin but I must say I also have platform convers and they are comfortable to walk in bc the sole is way ticker but it's alot more stiff to walk in as well, so I always grab my vans

    I use to wear Van's for YEARS. With Chuck's peppered in. And the older Chucks I find, the insole was extremely stiff and uncomfortable. But nowadays, idk what happened but Chucks now, (and I'm talking about the core classic) are way more comfy than Van's. Van's are a little wider which is the good thing. But man, the insoles of the classic Chucks now are alot squishier and just feel alot better than classic Van's.
    Hopefully Nike keeps this going with Chucks. Dont take anything else away. Just keep it here, and keep it at $50 please lol. I really can't imagine canvas sneakers going for anymore than that.

    I absolutely love my chucks. I have one exactly like the one you cut for weight lifting and I feel really stable and it also holds my ankles really well.
    I also have another 70’s pair for going out. I find that they don’t hurt the back of my feet like Air Force 1s for example.

    For me to very honest with you. These shoes are by no means the best if not the cheapest weight lifting shoes you could own. After buying a new pair of these in white leather. I had to take a break of using them after 14days straight. Especially using them for work (standing & walking) most of the time.
    I'm only using them casually but still uses them for my lifting purpose.
    And i'd say.. this is definitely worth the money. Since I have a flat foot. I go half size up✨

    I stuck some insoles from my mountain bike shoes inside my hi-tops and made them instantly more comfortable - huge increase in comfort. I did have to do some surgery to reduce the arch support in the glued in insole, so I wouldn't have 'double' arch support, but it's quite easy to just nip the top of the arch support off with kitchen shears or scissors

    As a weightlifter, Squats and Deadlifts require a good footing. When you’re moving a lot of weight and you have a thick sole, it can compress your feet on the sole weird and cause strain on the ankles due to angular shifting. You want to have a really flat shoe, or just lift in sock for the best balance.

So, I think you should make vids on more classic or iconic sloes like the vans you did and these also but thank you and I have now been subbed since that vans video. I genuinely enjoy your attitude words UA-cam as a whole a will continue to be a fan forever.

    I saw a few comments on the weightlifting thing. The main reason they are used for lifting, even by prople pretty expret, is because they don't compress further or deform at all when you lift. Once you're standing in them they are fully compressed and there won't be any more give after you add weight.
