[quote user="mesh"]Hahaa those are on sale at barneys for 59.[/quote]
Are you sure those are not John Varvatos x Converse?

Yep, they're the junyaxconverse. Originally 85 now marked down, still made in china though of course hence the price.

does anyone know if these sneakers (by Junya) come in solid white or black?
I want to buy one but dont want these checkerboard ones............
“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”
.................................................. .......................
no i dont want the regular ones.......... I know you can easily find those in black or white,
matter of fact my brother has some nice light grey ones he bought a while ago.....
I dont even know why i am bothering, because someone should Cat-o-nine me for asking about shoes.
I just got back eight pairs i left in jamaica lasty year(on top of the innumerable amount i already have) some of which i am realizing i didnt even wear.
However, I just thought if im going to buy a converse it would be nice to buy one from Junya as i dont own anything by him... and wouldnt be interested in much else that he makes for men.........

Junya did do the converse/jack purcell's in solid colours including black, but that was like two seasons ago. Don't know if he did it this season. Here's a picture of my black pair. I've worn the hell out of them. If you're persistent you can probably find a pair on yahoo japan, i saw a pair a while back.

thanks for the response
I likew these even better than the Chuck taylors.......
but here is the thing now.....
tomorrow i will post wherther or not im the most blessed man alive.
I went to Daffys today (poor mans century 21) they had a ton of Dries Van Noten shoes that seemed to have just arrived .............all for between $60-100 (us) I bought a pair of butter coloured dress shoes[:P] for $99.....
lo-and-behold Dries made a converse style sneakers also........... that they have for $70.
they come in brown and black. I couldnt find my size in the SOHO store, so i went to 34th street and couldnt find them either.
I am seeing a Girl in the Brooklyn store........ will call her later tonite and have her hunt down the black in a size 7-8 (i have small feet) they have a 8.5 in soho, if i cant find my size I'll buy those and put my Super-insoles in them.
for the record, I know most PPl here dont shop at Daffys but should anyone be interested in picking up some dries van notes . (they have these really nice sneakers for $89 ) and you are in NYC check them out.............!!!!!!!!!!!

.................................................. .......................
there were only a few at the 34th street store.........
the one in SOHO (broadway.......1.5 blocs from Canal, on the right going towards Houston).......... I looked at my Butter shoes again this morning and they are divine. (early birthday present from the Z-man to himself[G]!)
they have these amazing two toned sneakers for $89, the only reason i didnt buy them was because i would've felt guilty buying three pairs of shoes (while eyeing another elsewhere[:$]) they also have some black dress shoes that would be appropriate for someone who needs it for everyday corporate wear
I need those converse style ones in black........expecting a call from LUCY about noon today to tell me the good news.
Laika, its not the first time they have designer shoes there......... i have these amazing Galliano shoes i bought there for $70 about six month ago (that have yet to be worn)....... Ive also seen Mui Mui there before.
right now they have a huge assortment of Dirk Bikkembergs (they also have a converse style ones by him too in Black, white and tan)....... I am not interesred in his crap though........he is a dissappointment to Belgian fashion

.................................................. .......................
/\ I might pass by there today too...........I want to stop at Century (if i have time) , the Century in LI has some Levi's slim jeans for $24, I want to get two pairs (i am wearing the black ones today) but they didnt have my size.... i need two shades of blue, they had also some nice slim fit denim jackets, but i dont need anymore of those........
My HL "RAW"denim Jacket (that i brought to the office today to lengthen the cuffs) is the last denim jacket i am ever buying.... as i have too many already
