Should I get the CDG converse or the Chuck Taylor All Star ‘70? they are both similar and I am looking for a replacement for the van's old skools as they are too popular with kids atm. Any other suggestions?

Converse were really popular a few years ago in the UK and obviously still are but old skools have taken over as the shoe of choice for teenage girls so I think the Chuck Taylor All Star ‘70 may be worth buying as they look way better than the normal all stars.

don't get cdg chucks, they're so played out it isn't even funny. i've seen them like once or twice a week on random ppl this year, which is pretty crazy as far as internet meme shoes go
get shoes like pottery or something if you really want a converse silhouette

I'm pretty sure he was referring to the fucking heart with googly eyes on them. For people who don't know what CDG is it will look like you're wearing little girls shoes. For people who know what CDG is it will look like you're wearing overpriced internet meme shoes from 2014.

CDG chucks are kind of lame, the heart is really dumb.

I guess people go for them because of the lack of the racing stripe? But IMO it's not worth the trade-off.

70's chucks are very high quality compared to regular chucks, and don't have the stupid fucking heart on them. Yeah they have a little black racing stripe on the sole but who fucking cares. Nobody fucking cares.

Oh and FYI 70's cons don't look or feel like the regular shitty converse you've probably worn in the past.

They don't even have the same shape/silhouette.

They don't, trust me. They're better in basically every way.

Regular chucks look awkwardly long due to how flat the toebox is, 70's chucks don't have that problem. Not to mention literally every material used is better, and they are actually comfortable to wear.

And FYI The CDG cons are literally the same shoe as 70's just without the racing stripe, off-white sole, and different branding.

If you seriously think regular chucks look better I'd hazard a guess that you haven't worn or encountered a pair in the recent past, because they look incredibly cheap and shit.
