A really great fun basketball style ankle boot from Converse.
The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 113848 is striking to say the least with its eyecatching uppers decorated with their 'pop-art print' on canvas of a girl on the telephone, set on a royal blue background. Featuring textured yellow flock on her hair, these womens ankle boots really stand out from the crowd. The eyelet line of the 113848 is edged either side with a double row of black stitching that carries on up to the boot's topline. These Converse hi-top basketball boots are fastened by flat white laces that criss-cross up the front through seven pairs of silver coloured metal eyelets over a soft, royal blue tongue. A broad royal blue stripe travels up the back of the Chuck Taylor boot from heel to topline, and the Converse All Star branding is to be found over the inner side ankle. Allowing your feet to breathe, the All Star 113848 has two eyelets just above the instep.
The 113848's inner is lined in bright red canvas, while its comfortably padded insole bears a similar print to the uppers. Lying along the circumference of the basketball style boots white mid-sole are two narrow rows of piping in red and blue. White rubber encasing the toe of the ankle boot and a textured sole, completes the All Star 113848's basketball look.
Wearing these Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 113848 hi-top basketball boots may mean you 'hangin on the telephone' telling people where you got them from!
