yeah i figure that’s what mine is too. i used to wear converse a lot but they aren’t very comfortable on me. now i wear heydudes religiously, sometimes slip on vans, and birks most of the time. i try to wear sandals as much as i can in the summer. i got hokas last august so those are my new tennies i wear once in a while and sometimes my air forces but rarely
