First produced in 1917, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star high-top boots were made famous by basketball player Chuck Taylor. The canvas All Star boots are a popular choice with teens for their casual style and enduring retro appeal. The distinctive design of Converse's basketball boots are a sublime choice for both men and women thanks to their unisex appeal and stylish appearance on each.
Made from a black, canvas upper sprinkled with white and azalea pink stars, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star's have a protective rubber toe-cap that adds greater durability and strengthens the boots. From here the lace-up runs up the front of the boot, fastened with flat, black laces and lined with a parade of metal lace eyelets. The instep of the canvas basketball boots are branded with the 'Converse All Star' emblem over the ankle and two breathable eyelets near the sole that allow air to circulate around the foot.
The flexible sole unit of the All Star boots provides a comfortable and tactile experience and are able to smooth out bumps and shocks, ensuring that whether your thrashing your mates on the court down your neighbourhood park or hanging out with your friends, your boots won't get in the way of your fun!
