who's wearing converse to dive?

[kyjellyfish]

I'm looking to help my frog kick technique and wanted to get people's thoughts on wearing alternative dry suit footwear such as Converse All Stars. Currently I feel that my DUI Rockboots limit my ankles' range of motion.

Thanks!

I lot of my buddies wear chucks, none of them wear rock boots.

The latest trend is to find out who can come up with the most hideous pair. So far, my wife is winning.

One of my dive buddies wears some kind of tennis shoe. Not sure what brand though.

I don't know how it effects her frog kick, I am looking at her butt instead of her fins.

I use Converses on a Fusion.

Thanks all. I also found older threads on this.

You can go to the Converse site and order a pair of personalized shoes -- I came very close to doing this when I was using them on my Fusion.

I use them. Works for me.

Converse with a Fusion and TLS.

Yes, Cody, Leslie is winning. Stephen's old pair of Airwalks, though, might take first prize.

You guys got any pics of these nasty shoes? My buddy called me a Fashion Disaster even though my shoes are a mere plain blue.

Ian, let me check and see if I can dig some up. If your buddy thought you were a FD with plain blue, would love to see what he thought of some of these others!
