Just for the sake of argument, let's say that I wandered over to Zappos, plugged in "Converse" in the little search bar, and then clicked on "Women's - Chuck Taylor." And let's just say that before I knew what hit me, two unbelievably funky pairs of All-Stars ended up in my shopping cart. And, lo! Zappos already had my credit card on file. Whattayaknow? So . . . which two pairs did I pick? Which two pairs would you pick?
How to tell you're a Verbatim junkie: you find 239 items resulting from Karen's Chuck search - and you look at ALL of them.
Wow. The last time I wore Chucks, I believe there were four: lo and hi-top, each in black or white.
I am entirely stumped and anxious to know which you chose!

Hint 1: I had red hi-tops in college.
Hint 2: I did not buy new red hi-tops today.

How my soul cries out for a retro pair of Vans! Checkerboard, please. But how my wallet cries out not to be dinged $45 plus shipping! What to do...

It's free shipping from Zappos! That settles that.

Geez, now I know why I don't own a pair. Expensive suckers. Here's my picks:
The low-top pink/maroon camo ones (#7135456) and the kinda boho-stitched looking ones in blue (#7204630).
Now tell us which ones you got! :)

I have red, black and white hi-tops but I don't wear them much anymore; my feet changed sizes when I was pregnant and never went back! I do love them, though.
The price has certainly changed along with the selection. The first pair I ever bought was less than $20.
