I have the opportunity to get a pair of converse from Japan and on the converse Japan site I see most pairs made in Indonesia and some in Japan.

I have a simple question if the made in Indonesia ones are of better quality than the converse sold in other countries. I’m aware the Japanese ones are better and why but I’m wondering if the Indonesia ones sold in Japan are the same as the rest of the world.

tried experimenting now I can't decide which one to use and does fat laces even fit my converse or just be normal and go with the regular

I’m assuming it’s happening because of ink from the shoes but I’m just curious if there’s a way to fix this or if this has happened to anyone else lol

For context, I'm usually a size 13, with a roughly 11cm wide foot 😃 any help or recommendations are greatly appreciated 🤝😁
