I've been debating on getting these for a while and finally did it. I'm in my 30s and was worried this is a young person's fashion but I'm glad I made the purchase! They are so cute, and comfortable. There's definitely some cushioning in the sole, a bit more than a regular Converse, and maybe even more than the Madison ones. I do a lot in these- wear them to the office on casual Friday, wear them to parks and outside events with my kid and just around the house to get the mail. 10/10 recommend!
