Converse has this new women's style called the 'Chuck Taylor All Star Dainty'. It's not actually dainty - the All Star Light is dainty and as far as I know it's sold as unisex (although it's hard to see how a shoe could be more unisex than the Chuck Taylor and the difference isn't very noticeable, so I feel dudes should feel no shame in buying it). After some squinting we've determined the main difference is the fabric is cut lower under the ankles, which could be good if the current cut gives you ankle blisters (which
waxjism says it does, so).
You can see the difference below: the ordinary Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Ox in glitter turquoise on the left and the new "Chuck Taylor AE All Star Dainty Ox" on the right in "Parasailing" (not their first foray into dumbass color names, but it's still a standout).
