What Are Chuck Taylor's?

I lived in Lagrónio which is like La Riosa Spanish wine country and so actually it's a long the route. I used to see all of the people walking through it on a regular basis and this is when I was teaching English in that area of Spain. So I booked a trip on a moments notice and ended up in the mountains very cold with my little backpack. We call them Chuck Taylor's but we just call them Converse is what they're technically called high high tops Converse high tops, he says.
