Chucks are not hard to find. I've seen them at stores in the mall in that color. It's not a burden to purchase them online, anyhow. No matter what, be sure to try any color of high-tops at the store. After you find ones that are comfortable, write that size down or something so you remember. Your regular shoe size will not correlate to the Converse size. I wear a size 12 in every other brand of shoe (other than dress shoes) and in Converse I wear a size 11.

On a semi-related note, the maroon ones seem to be getting scarce. I've had a pair for about six years that finally disintegrated last week and finding a replacement pair was a bit of a challenge. They're still available through the Converse site, but a lot of places seem to be clearancing them out (I ended up getting a pair for about $30). Luckily the black and natural white ones are core colors, so they won't be going out of production.

The emblems were removed, not painted over, IIRC. Which isn't hard to do.
Also, be SURE you get the off-white ones. I've got a pair of the white ones, and while I love them to death, they aren't accurate.
Related note: If I ever run for president, I will wear nothing but Converse all the way to the top.

*grumble* I wish I could find a pair of Cream colored ones in the stores I've been going to...all they have are the "Atomic white" which isn't accurate...And, alas I now have no money to order online...*sighs* FRIDAY!!!

Eclipse, you need to be looking for plain white. That's the correct color. It's not called cream.
And Risu, I'm wondering if they just photoshopped out the emblems, then, since I know that the white ones were Tennant's own shoes, according to an interview he did. I'm pretty sure the mono black ones had the emblems cut off (rubber, easy to do, did it to mine because I didn't like 'em on there), and the maroon ones had the emblems on.
Also, anyone who already has the atomic white ones, just wear them constantly. They'll quickly get dirty enough that you can never tell the difference between them and the natural white ones.
