Converse Chuck Taylor, in a few lines
The Converse All Star came out in 1917. Back then it was a basketball shoe. Chuck Taylor, a player and later a salesman for the brand, made it known across the United States, and his name joined the round patch on the ankle. Canvas upper, rubber toe cap, vulcanized sole: it has barely changed in more than a century, and it has gone from the court to the concert stage and the street. The Chuck 70 revives the construction of the 70s, with thicker canvas, a higher sole and more comfort.
