A term used by people who don't realise that the word 'Converse', when referring to the brand of sneakers, cannot be made plural. For example, one would say "I have lots of pairs of Converse sneakers" rather than "I have lots of pairs of Converses".
Don't use the word "converses", please.

Some really sweet kicks. Your dad probably owned some when he was on the school basketball team, and probably talks about how he was real hip because he owned a red pair.
Unfortunatly they now cost around 50 bucks a pop as compared to when they started they were around $10. Just about everyone owns atleast one pair of converse, originally worn by basketball players they soon became popular on the punk rock scene being worn by bands such as the ramones.
Theese are shoes that get better with age, because they still look cool worn out.
People like to say that only "emos" or "punks" can wear them, this is not true. Anyone who wants to wear them can because they are totally boss. Your not cool if you wear them and your not uncool if you dont. You wear them cause you like them.
ultimately they're just a pair or really sweet shoes that look cool.
Some kid: Hey, i like your shoes!
Hipster: Thanks man. They're converse, i like them too.

The best shoes ever created. They can be worn by anyone, but are becoming more and more popular because Nike STOLE-err....bought Converse. If you are wearing them because you like them, you're doing the right thing. If you are wearing them because EVERYONE at your school has a pair and you want to be just like them, you are a materialistic jerk. FUCK YOU!!!
Non-fad follower: I love to wear converse. They are the best brand of shoes in the world.
Popularity obsessed trend-follower (puppet): LYKE OMG!!!!!! I NEED SOME CONVERSE BCUZ EVERY1 @ MY SKOOL LYKE HAS A PAIR AND I WANNA B POPULAR!!!!!11111!!!!!111!!1!1!11!!!1

Is a word that is supposed to be a verb deriving from a mutation of "converse" and "conversation. It is in the dictionary as "non-standard except in some dialects".
Some may believe this entry in the dictionary gives the word validity. It doesn't. Any slang or bastardized word embraced by popular culture could end up in the dictionary with this definition. That in no way means that it is a legitimate word.
From the same school as "irregardless" or "ain't". An example was given above to attempt to legitimize this word by quoting rap songs. Ridiculous. Is "Sizzurp" a real English word too?
The type of sentence you might hear from someone who believes this is a word:
"I don't speak English that good but I'm gonna conversate wit cha irregardless"

The brand of hipsters and free thinkers for years hit financial problems in the 90's and was bought out by Nike. Production was moved overseas and the price jumped from $20 to $35 a pair.
"I have a pair of Converse to match every one of my turtle necks!"
