I used to wear those Chuck Taylor high tops back in the 70’s.

I think they were about 20 bucks a pair back then. Then they creeped up to 30 IIRC.

They also gave me tremendous flat feet that hurt like hell.

I used to wear similar hightops back in the early 50s. Bought them at the local country store. “Ball Band” was one brand. Then maybe “U.S. Keds” came along. Probably less than 5 bucks a pair back then, in Fawn Grove, PA. Right on the M-D Line.

Back in the 50s the same shoes were called PF Fliers...
