Does anyone have any experience with wearing Converse when doing Night Ops? I usually go out in different shoes, but I've had a pair of converse for a while now so they're nice and worn in - silent to walk in. Just wondering about grip/reliability before I actually take them out.
Experiences?

Kinda answered my own question there, huh.
Oh i get it its supposed to be a swastika lol. any way no ankle support isnt a problem especialy if you have the high top converse. and strength will make a difference as well as pain tolerence. the pain tolerence is for just in case you have to make a hasty escape off a high place.
for 1 im not using my mouth o great 1 of intelligence. and 2 iv dropped off a four story building a broke both ankles. a regular person can handle a 2 story drop with some pain, a 3 story drop you have a possibility of snapping your ankles like i did. but most likely you will have a minimal fractures and should be able to limp home (thats if your not miles away)
Well then i must be a zombie then. cool.
LOL. You'd have broken a lot more than that if it were true...
well for 1 i dont remember most of that night, because i was drunk at a party an cops came so i got paranoid and jumped. the next thing i can recall is waking up in a hospital with a soft cast on both legs up to the knee. they told me i was lucky i survived and that i had only broken my ankles.
Neat!
P.S. Pakistanis sniff cum
I'll stick to my Converse for sneaking and general stealth. I might actually kit up with some other shoes in a backpack in case I need to be climbing, dropped off at the Op location the night before or something as I hate doing an Op with a backpack on.
What sort of gear would you carry in your backpack? I find that if it's too light then it annoys me more, and if it's too heavy then it slows down my performance and you get tired a lot quicker. I'll try looking for a tighter fitting one, or I may just strap this one as tight as it goes. If I can get away with not taking one at all, then that's the best idea IMO
As for wearing converse, I imagine they would be a pain in the ass to run with. They don't get a lot of traction either.
Very subtle
What I did like about them is that they are light and canvas - they dry out very quickly if they get wet.
And who ever posted that cops wont take sold prints unless it is a murder is a fucktard. Its like saying cops only take fingerprints if its a murder.
Commit a property crime or crime against a person - burn the shoes you were wearing.
:facepalm:
I think that little notch would greatly help on chain fences and other things.
You must value your liberty like you value gum.
If you are arrested for most felonies and they may be able to prove your guilt by your shoe print and they have a chance to take your shoes, they will.
I have been locked up with more than a few people that came in with no shoes because they detectives took them. This is from 100% personal, first-hand experience.
They often take your shoes so you can't hang yourself with the laces if they think you might be a suicide risk.
In the UK, they will take your shoes if they think their is even the remotest chance of them being evidence.
With regards to them taking your shoes so you dont hang yourself with your laces, if the custody desk is not so busy, they like to take your laces out of your shoes - quite often becuase they think it is funny as fuck watching someone try to relace their shoes with laces that the ends are fucked on when they are released.
Dude trust me, I've been to prison before and to county several times. And I'm not bragging, it's stupid of me and has ruined most of my teens and all of my 20's.
I know the difference between when they take the laces from someone's shoes and when they take their shoes as evidence. :rolleyes:
I've started going barefoot a lot lately though, anyone else just ditch their shoes completely?
That's a good method used for strengthening up your muscles in your ankles, legs and feet which help you so much when doing ops. Also, ditching the shoes helps your balance SO much.
