1974, I was 8 and had my first pair of Black Converse High Tops - I was King of the world. Wore them until they both had holes in the soles. I would put notebook paper in them in order to keep on wearing them, if my mom discovered holes in my socks when doing laundry that would have been the end of my beloved Cons. Walking home from school one day my Mom pulls up and I get in the car, she had just been at the school as they had called concerned that I needed shoes. I simply didn't want to let go of my favorite shoes. Next morning I woke up and there were a brand new pair of Black High Top Converse next to my bed. I cried, they had thrown my old ones away.
Yeah, I agree with you. There are a load more better options for comfort. These are probably lowest down out of all my sneakers. The cushioning is far better still in the converse IMO though
I use both for lifting, court sports, and fashion. I find that converse have better traction, the blazers are easier to clean, and both are perfectly fitting
Now Nike owner of Converse brand. I love Chuck 70, but like blazers to...and in my city dont see lot of them on the foots (worldwide hype). Maybe later buy blazers in low suede version.
I won't said Blazer are hyped up, there not on the same level nor playing field of the Nike Dunks. But I do agreed the Converse has more versatile due it's more slimmer appearance. If anything the 77 Vintage Blazer Low is the way to go if your going to rock with the Blazer.
I personally like Converse's style more, I find it a bit less streetwear. Anyways, despite I like both of them a lot, I cannot wear the Blazer because they're a bit too tight at the front part for me. I like this "VS" format video, another one including the Vans Old Skool might be really interesting. Thanks for the video and enjoy the weekend mate!
thanks mate. I really enjoy making these kind of videos so that’s good to hear. I don’t wear the vans old skool these days I’m afraid but keep the suggestions coming 👍🙏
whoa i happen to have both of these, would say the 70 chuck insole is super cushy, and works well with most of my wardrobe but I have a soft spot for retro nikes! I think the converse would win just in terms of range of use.
Converse are my favourite shoes in the world. Comfy, stylish, timeless and like Harry said just a blank canvas to work with and most importantly it doesn't take me an hour to put on!
bro i love your film making skills even more than the content it doesnt mean that your content isnt fire but its that your filmmaking skills are on another lvl ong keep going pls
In terms of versatility, the blazer mids in coconut milk are an off white alternative that may be a touch easier to style as it's unicolor all the way around. Great video as always!
I have both and Converse 70 are my favourite shoes in the world. I wear them everyday and have for like 18 months. I just wore a hole in the toe, I think this shows how much I have worn them. I got then blazers because they look sick. I haven’t worn them much. Kinda uncomfortable aswell
Chuck 70s are just an overall classic. They are way more comfortable than blazers and the regular chuck Taylor shoe. Super versatile and chucks can go with any and everything. I own about 7 pairs and I’ll continue to purchase chuck 70s.
Thanks man, atleast someone from the fashion community did the most tough competition. Really u are making it easy for us and tough for your competitors. Much love ❤️
Personally I'd roll with the Chucks, and that's not because I have anything against the Blazers. It's the fact that nowadays when I go searching for shoes, I look more for versatility and I don't feel like the Blazers can offer me that. With the Converse it feels easy to experiment with different styles all while being able to stick to my own.
I own blazers and your feet will get use to uncomfortable long walks, You can unlace 2 - 4 levels and loose every level and saggy lace the shoe (Hanging short untied lace) which makes it very easy to put on, and won't fall off easily. Blazers are super easy to clean, super durable, it is leather but they do not get creases, they get small shape deformations which is very cool. The sole and front part of the shoes are super durable, they don't get scratches or wear offs, just dirt and dust stains. Plus they look cool.
Really like the design of both of them, but the fit of the blazers didn’t suit my feet - long and narrow. Unfortunately ended up selling the blazers after a few wears
I don’t really use it to be honest. I kinda just go by eye and what I like together. I think it can limit you and takes the fun side out of fashion for me a little. I can do one but it isn’t an area that interests me hugely I’m afraid.
I just bought hot pink and lavender blazers for school. They’re super comfy and cool. I’d recommend them, altough there are some cons, they are very hard to put on so if you’re gonna go to a friends house and have to take ‘em off often, then not recommended.
When it comes to canvas shoes, like chucks or vans, and shoes that aren't canvas but keep the same vibe like the blazers or air force ones, I actually prefer the beat up kinda dirty look, just fits the vibe :)
In different needs here’s what I have Stylish: Blazers Gym or workout: depends on what Kind of exercise your doing but would usually recommend the Chucks Durability: Chucks Comfort: Chucks Skating: Blazers Finally it depends on what U’r preference is, if U want U’r outfit to stand out then get the Blazers while if U’r trying to get some Comfort lasting shoes then get the Chucks. Ive skated both and can say the Blazers R better as they give me nice board feel and protection while Chucks don’t really last long in the Skateboarding
I feel like id rather grab the chucks or even pf fliers as a high top because of breathability and style tbh, but prefer the nike blazer as a low top. Mostly because with the low top nike its less restrictive but also still has the thickness and durability of the leather/padding. all are great shoes that have a place for a myriad of styles
what's cool about Chuck Taylors is it doesn't need any branding anyone who see's those rubber soles and toe caps from a mile a way know exactly what shoe it is. That's how iconic the Chuck Taylors are.
wow thanks this actually really helped. a few weeks i reallllyyyy wanted converse but then I found the blazers and became obsessed so I bought a pair and they havnt arrived yet and I honestly don't no which one I'd pick bc I love the look of both.
@Jon Doe both shoes are flat. I would say that the chuck 70 is slight bit more cushioned than the mid77. Mid77 is all about aesthetic tbh. If not for that good-looking swoosh logo, I wouldn’t buy it 😂
i have the blazers and I just got the black platform chuck taylor’s even tho I got the wrong size i still love them both and when i get the right size i will have to compare them
Personally my blazers are way more comfy then my converse my converse have a material thick comfy too on them I only buy high tops because I prefer them, I do agree that blazers are way harder to put on and take me forever when I got blazers I was so worried about them getting creased at the front whereas I wasn't as worried with the converse overall I like them both
Well for the blazer to put on for adults you have to tie it but for kids it’s Velcro which I know because my little cousin has them so maybe for adults your right but kids not really
Just thought of this right now, but I would love to see a video on what color clothes to wear depending on your skin tone! I moved to a new swimming pool recently and it’s an outdoor one. I tan very easily and my skin tone has changed tremendously now. When I try to wear certain colors like light beige or whatnot, it always looks so weird on me now. I would love to see a video on what colors to wear depending on your skin tone!
Really wouldn't recommend the Chuck 70 for a lot of walking either. After an hour to an hour and a half of walking I was left with blisters. Shoes meant for walking/running are what you should go for, even if they're unfortunately not as stylish.
I personally love chucks. Converse is my personal favorite sneaker brand. Although I do love the blazers, they look sporty and versatile and are easy to wear.
I have both and love them just the same, but my Blazers do make me nervous I’m gonna crease the back which is not a problem I have with my Chucks (because of the canvas body).
I have both and the reason for that is I needed a new replacement for my converse I still wear both because they are so similar if I want something whiter I’ll go for the blazers that really is the only difference…. And the short odd design for the toes on the blazers.
i love my blazers. I know they’re not the most comfortable but they’re not completely awful to walk in. also I don’t lace mine up which i like the look of and also makes them very quick to get on 😂
As someone that found my love of chucks in highschool Ive been noticing the blazer a lot recently & even though I feel it catches my eye because of the shape Im not shameful to admit Im digging it and considering grabbing a pair of my own Thanks for the comparison
Love the chucks still infind the blazer design shoe amazing. Never owned a pair. Is it true, will you ankles start to ache after a while ? Is it so bad? Thanks
Keep getting those gainz! You would be better with the classic chucks as they have no arch support for the gainz. The blazers are also a good flat shoe 👍

I’d argue neither of the shoes are made for comfort. It’s a more style driven agenda. They both have little sole cushioning
Yeah, I agree with you. There are a load more better options for comfort. These are probably lowest down out of all my sneakers. The cushioning is far better still in the converse IMO though
Converse are still the most comfortable shoe I’ve put on my foot.
You could size up and use insoles

Do the 70s fit true to size??
@@chrisaugustin9181 I would say so
Converse suck for hooping or volleyball lol but they’re usable
IOW's it doesn't have to be a Zero Sum Game,
@@Aisluin true I used it for volleyball for about a year but I just bought vball shoes instead :p now only really use converse for lifts
Chuck's are timeless shoes. Blazer's hype up sneaker and brand. I choose the chuck taylor

“Streetwear” is mostly code word for “absolutely slathered in branding and/or pajamas.”
Thank God you did this video Harry I can finally sleep now ....I'm exhausted... great review awesome video
Take it easy and sleep well mate 👍😉
Converse are versatile. Can rock it anytime, anywhere.
Both are very versatile IMO
@@HarryHas i think the blazer is a lot more overtly sporty making them less versatile than the chucks
The high top converse is better for spring but I would say low top
i personally prefer the look of the blazer, and i prefer the regular all-star chuck taylor i just like the look of the 70 but still amazing shoes

I’ve worn Chuck Taylors & they hurt my feet.
I’ve recently got Blazers 77 & they are so comfy.
Mine hurt for one day and now they’re comfy
But blazers are like impossible to put on in the beginning and idk about the chucks but I think they are a nice shoe just from the looks
Yeah I swear I was shocked how comfy blazers are
Don't your toes hurt with the blazers ?
bought my blazers a week back and my toes still hurt. Definitely not the most comfiest.
I have just bought suede black blazer mid. So far loving its style and it felt comfy for shorter or midrange walks

When it comes to canvas shoes, like chucks or vans, and shoes that aren't canvas but keep the same vibe like the blazers or air force ones, I actually prefer the beat up kinda dirty look, just fits the vibe :)
Chucks all day and it’s not even close. Greatest sneaker ever made hands down.
In different needs here’s what I have
Stylish: Blazers
Gym or workout: depends on what Kind of exercise your doing but would usually recommend the Chucks
Durability: Chucks
Comfort: Chucks
Skating: Blazers
Finally it depends on what U’r preference is, if U want U’r outfit to stand out then get the Blazers while if U’r trying to get some Comfort lasting shoes then get the Chucks. Ive skated both and can say the Blazers R better as they give me nice board feel and protection while Chucks don’t really last long in the Skateboarding
The video we all were hoping for.
Pleased to hear.
This is a great video, Harry
I like this type of video harry! Good job

Mostly because with the low top nike its less restrictive but also still has the thickness and durability of the leather/padding. all are great shoes that have a place for a myriad of styles
If u can even get pf flyers they've been out of stock for about a year now on most
I have a pair of Blazers Infinite and 8 pairs of Chuck 70s. 7 highs and 1 lowtop. Chucks all the way.
i've got both and prefer Chuck 70 !! which is more comfortable!
Love Blazer too !
Love them both. They're great in their own way
what's cool about Chuck Taylors is it doesn't need any branding anyone who see's those rubber soles and toe caps from a mile a way know exactly what shoe it is. That's how iconic the Chuck Taylors are.

Can you make a video on how to style maroon converse high tops sir, gonna love your styles with it
I love the All-Black Leather Chucks....But they don't help me sleep at night 😌
I prefer the Blazers and once you put different insoles in they are really comfy
Really wouldn't recommend the Chuck 70 for a lot of walking either. After an hour to an hour and a half of walking I was left with blisters. Shoes meant for walking/running are what you should go for, even if they're unfortunately not as stylish.
I think you can find both, for example some suede new balances imo are stylish and more made for walking.
And what about for lifting heavy weights, like squats or deadlifts. Blazer or Chuck?
Blazers are the biggest pain in the ass to put on. I've tried both the normal and SB version on and the shit is impossible to get on and off
I personally love chucks. Converse is my personal favorite sneaker brand. Although I do love the blazers, they look sporty and versatile and are easy to wear.
Oh man! Spilling the tea 🫖! Haha can’t wait to watch this one 😉
I like converse for a more vintage/laid back style and blazers for a street wear style
Blue converse for life
it goes with everything but i might try blazer one day, It's just expensive and i'm not ready to buy a new pair right now
Chuck's are iconic.
chuck 70 pros: more durable, more flexible, easier to lace, easier to get on/off
Blazer mid 77 pros:
most awaited high top face off
I hope it didn’t disappoint
i have both and i love them equally
I have both and love them just the same, but my Blazers do make me nervous I’m gonna crease the back which is not a problem I have with my Chucks (because of the canvas body).
I have both shoes and they are equally my fav
the problem i got with converse is that when i wear em because of my shoe size they look massive while blazers look normal af
i wish i'd watched this video before i bought the blazers, beause i can absolutely feel everything youve said about them
I own both.....love them both
i have them both but still love the chuck
I had both but I like the Nike Mid Blazer more !!!
I have both and the reason for that is I needed a new replacement for my converse I still wear both because they are so similar if I want something whiter I’ll go for the blazers that really is the only difference…. And the short odd design for the toes on the blazers.
I like both
I walked Disney Florida with the All Star. No pain at all. It was surprisingly very comfortable.
both 50/50, both great shoes that can match anything
i love my blazers. I know they’re not the most comfortable but they’re not completely awful to walk in. also I don’t lace mine up which i like the look of and also makes them very quick to get on 😂
Is the blazers foam tongue an issue at all? Also great vid dude!
Not for me. I like that detail. If you don’t like it it may be
I just bought these converse today and now this is being recommended to me 🤨🧐🧐
I'll throw a curveball: the Converse Street (Mid) is pretty good; it's literally a more cushioned CT/70.
I love Blazers!
Really nice video bro, helped me a lot to choose between them . Going for blazers
👍
respectable decision!
I like the blazers but that triangular pinky patch kinda screws it up. Just get some van sk8s if u don't want another toe cap.
finally! a real deal comparison! thank you!
👍
I legit thought I was the only person thinking about this
i was choosing between sk8-hi and 70s but i ordered a pair of converse just like yours few days ago
Hope you like them 👍
As someone that found my love of chucks in highschool Ive been noticing the blazer a lot recently & even though I feel it catches my eye because of the shape Im not shameful to admit Im digging it and considering grabbing a pair of my own
Thanks for the comparison
Same. Both have a classic and simple look but all the bad reviews of the Blazer have kept me from buying a pair
I personally have the Convers 70’s in black and my sister has the blazers shown in the video
i just throw my converse in the washing machine and they come out like new
Love the chucks still infind the blazer design shoe amazing. Never owned a pair.
Is it true, will you ankles start to ache after a while ? Is it so bad?
Thanks
awesome content
Thanks mate
I like the converse better, I have a pair in black and I'm not complaining, they are super comfortable
Both are designed as a skate shoe not a dad shoe...
after watching this video now i want to wear my high tops. gotta choose between blazers of adidas nizza :)
It's weird that i have two of them and i have just have two sneakers lol
Love converse, they r so comfortable man
chucks are just timeless man, so so versatile
Just copped some Blazers after months of thinking about it... Should've done it a long time ago, because I immediately love these.
I choose Chucks for squats, deadlifts, and getting them gainz!
Keep getting those gainz! You would be better with the classic chucks as they have no arch support for the gainz. The blazers are also a good flat shoe 👍
Nothing like Nike competing with each other
Whichever one you choose, Nike gets the money.
I do not wear sneakers but it was nice to watch.
That’s great to hear. Thanks 🙏
Came here for the fashion content, stayed for the comedy 😂👍
Haha thanks
blazers all the way, perfect gym shoes too
Blazer in Europe £90
Blazer in Brazil R$600,00… é foda usar o que a gente gosta aqui 💔
