This website says all converse shoes are now made in asia. I don't know how reliable the info is, since the website is a campaigning website for people to buy American.
The 2nd link say that converse has been owned by Nike since 2003 and also say the shoes are made in asia.
You can find out more about converse by reading the Nike annual shareholders reports. see 3rd link, then investors link.
The 4th link is the Nike facts page, which has an 'Asia Pacific Region' section. It gives an overview of what Nike do, but not much detail. Converse isn't mentioned specifically as it has really just been absorbed into Nike.
Here's what you need - The 5th link is a page containing a full list of Nike's production facilities that they were forced to disclose. Its an Adobe Acrobat .pdf file you can download. Read the non-disclosure stuff on the page, if you don't want to get sued.

Go to the shoe store and look inside the toungue of the shoe - it will say made in Malayasia, China, Vietnam, Cambodia or Pakistan or some place that has no child labor laws or worker protection.
