How do the non-Addict "Made in Japan" Converse compare with the regularly available Converse in the States?

 

They don't have Vibram soles, but do they use premium canvas uppers?

Got these a while ago but they are more of an oatmeal colour than pictured above, having a hard time trying to incorporate it into an outfit because it clashes with any other tone of white I wear + my wardrobe is tiny and consists of only blacks and whites

 

Maybe I will beat them to hell so they become beige / grey so there's a more distinct difference between it and my other "pure" white pieces

Sounds like you could use some colour in your wardrobe.

 

I have these too and the midsoles at least definitely get dirty fast. Not sure about the terry yet, but I'm sure that does get dirty too just not as fast. I try to keep mine relatively clean tho since I like the near-white look to them.

Would like to pick up a pair of the 1970 hightop cons. How do the sizing compare to Nikes (flyknits/frees in particular)? Thanks in advance

Go down a half size from your normal shoe size, like you would with any Chuck Taylors (assuming you've owned a pair before).

Just ordered custom off-white 70s with black/white sole instead of red foxing. Will post pics when they arrive.

This is one of the color ways which is like almost every season for addict. Semi reg.

Rather pay $100 using custom, but what is the turn around time?
