Converse Chuck Taylor Hi Nylon

My pair of hi-cut nylon grey Converse Chuck Taylor's shoes just arrived from Crossover Concept Store and took the time to get some first out of the box photos. Got really stuck with these CT's after my first trial with the low cut grey pair. They really fit my dress-up style and are amazingly comfortable for such simple shoes. 

Plus they're cheaper than the regular Adidases or Nikes.

Figure 4: Soles.
I am really selective about a specific shoes, firstly with the Converse Chuck Taylor, I don't really like too striking colors unless it is breath-taking to look at. Still I haven't seen a breath-taking pair of soles in such a long time. This pair will serve as my 2nd pair of soles from Converse.

Liked both soles in hi-cut and low cut.

High Cut Foot Wear

Figure 1: Converse High Cut All Leather.
I've always loved high cut foot wear, especially boots. I used to have Red Wing boots which are high cut and I love it, those are work wear so which I get during my internship with an Oil & Gas company. I gave it away with full generosity to my uncle and cousin but due to premature wear it didn't last long. I wasn't much a foot wear collector back then.

I didn't have any high cut foot wear until I got into college, I got my hands on a pair of Timberland boots, made in Korea though and were not original, I didn't care much about originality back then and was eager to wear a pair of those fabled "yellow" boots which were really famous till now. I got it raw, which were still yellow and furry.

But it didn't take long for that yellowness, furry to lost its original looking touch. In a year, the boot has lost its waterproofness and got damp all the time it rained. I always bring it jungle and a fair share of urban city trackking and it was a great experience at first. The inner part of the boots got worn and d inner leather was exposed.

It was really becoming uncomfortable to wear those pair of yellow boots, still it's a experience with those unoriginal footwear. Now I have a pair of white original "Made In USA" Timberland boots which I proudly wear whenever there is camping, hiking, rainy days and even during urban city walks. Really comfortable and recommended wear for anyone with tough attitude & high confidence.

Displayed above are a pair of high cut converse shoes which attracted my attention. I really want to grab a pair most probably but it not among my collection favorites (Adidas & Timberland) and also overspending. Those converse shoes are really God-send during a rainy day or a walk in the urban city or sandy beaches.

Might see me in a pair of these if I manage to find a UK10 at a reasonable price though, looking around and the biggest I can find is a UK8.5, not for me maybe..
