Choose the Chuck Taylor All Star Hi for its high-top shape and ankle patch, or the Jack Purcell CP Ox for a low lace-up with the smile detail across the toe. Want no laces? The All Star Slip is a third, distinct option. Your size and the way the opening holds your foot matter more than a blanket claim that one family is more comfortable.
Start with the silhouette you want, then check the available size labels below. The current selections differ sharply between models; there is no reason to change your fit just to get the preferred colour.
| Your choice | What to compare |
|---|---|
| All Star Hi | Laces, ankle-height canvas and the round ankle patch. Choose it for the high-top look. |
| Jack Purcell CP Ox | Low lace-up with the dark smile line across the rubber toe. Our styling pick with chinos or a clean trouser hem. |
| All Star Slip | Low, laceless Chuck shape. Check instep pressure and heel hold because there are no laces to adjust. |
| LP Leather Slip | A separate Jack Purcell version. It had no available variants at the latest catalog check; do not treat the CP Ox as the same shoe. |

Pictured in White/White. The available labels were 3.5 Men / 5 Women and 4 Men / 5.5 Women. Keep those paired labels as written when choosing your size. The low collar and smile toe give this pair a different look from the Chuck Taylor Hi.
Check available sizes$55.00: Chuck Taylor All Star Hi in Optical White had the labels 3 and 13 available. Those are two separate sizes, not a range from 3 through 13. Ask us to confirm the size designation if the single-number option is unclear.
$55.00: Chuck Taylor All Star Slip in Navy had label 3.5 available. Its laceless opening changes how you assess the fit: walk and turn indoors, checking that the heel stays controlled without pressure across the top of the foot.
Prices and colour-specific sizes were checked September 6, 2026. The product page shows the current selection. Online availability does not confirm stock at a particular store.
Converse recommends half a size down for the current classic Chuck Taylor All Star Canvas. Its current Jack Purcell Canvas 164057C page instead says true to size. Our linked Jack Purcell is the older CP Ox listing, so neither a current model page nor a general brand rule settles that exact fit.
Read the product option first. The CP Ox already shows both men and women in its paired labels; applying another conversion would change the size twice. For a single-number option or an older slip-on, give us the model and your usual size so we can help confirm the label.
Use the same socks for both try-ons. Check whether your toes have room, whether the upper presses across the instep and whether your heel feels secure while walking. We do not have a model-matched test showing that the CP Ox is wider or more cushioned than every Chuck Taylor.
If you wear an insole, check the complete fit with it before keeping the shoes. Adding an insole takes up space; it is not a reason to buy a pair that already squeezes. For long walking days, compare the fit and support with your usual walking shoes rather than choosing solely on the Converse name.
The Jack Purcell LP Leather Slip had no available variants at this check. The link remains here for reference. For a currently available lace-up, check the White/White CP Ox labels above; for other choices, browse all Converse.
Chuck Taylor All Star Hi has an ankle-height canvas upper and round ankle patch. Jack Purcell CP Ox is a low lace-up with a dark smile line on the rubber toe. The All Star Slip is a separate low, laceless version. Compare the exact model rather than treating every Converse as the same shoe.
Try the exact pair with your usual socks and check toe room, pressure across the instep and heel hold. A Jack Purcell is not automatically wider or more comfortable than every Chuck Taylor. We do not have a model-matched comfort test establishing a winner for these listings.
Do not assume so. Converse recommends half a size down for its current classic Chuck Taylor All Star Canvas, but describes the current Jack Purcell Canvas 164057C as true to size. That is not a verified sizing rule for every older CP Ox or slip-on. Check the exact model and size label before ordering.
For chinos or a straighter trouser hem, our pick is the low Jack Purcell CP Ox with its restrained toe detail. Choose the Chuck Taylor Hi when you want the visible ankle patch and high-top shape. This is styling advice, not a difference in formal dress-code suitability.
No available variants were returned for the linked LP Leather Slip at the latest check. Its product page remains linked for reference; the CP Ox is the available lace-up option in this comparison.
Read the size label on the particular product. Some options show a paired men and women label and others show a single number. Keep an existing paired label as written, and ask for help with the single-number option rather than applying a second conversion.
