Yea, the navy one, which is the ugliest, ended up being the only one that was produced. They gave up on the Maroon and Brown.

I was trying on different pairs of converse and I realized that they don't fit my feet. Measuring my feet I measure about a 9.5EE so these tiny shoes don't even come close even if I go up to a 10.5. Are any of the JP and JV kinds any wider?

Not in my experience. I have a similar situation, I'm probably about 11 E so I have to choose between 11 (painful until broken in) or 11.5. Your going to have to clown-shoe it.

Picked these up today, the Grey/Green version of the Flight Jackets.

These are really nice with nylon padded uppers. The canvas chucks always fit a bit weird for me... 7 is too loose and 6 is too tight. These in 7s are just right. Any other chucks also padded like this?
