Converse chuck taylor 70s
Many of us love the canvas Chuck Taylors for their vintage look. You probably won´t find other sneakers with longer history and stronger roots than Converse shoes. The new collection by Converse called Chuck ´70 was introduced not just for vintage lovers. It is different from the classic collection by the stitching on the side of the silhouette and cream sole with a black line that is a little higher than usual and that perfectly underlines the retro feel. At the same time, the sneakers have a new breathable insole that will provide comfort even on a day-trip.
Materials
Upper
Textile: The textile upper of the sneakers is lightweight, breathable and comfortable, ideal for everyday wear and sports. It ensures air circulation, keeps feet fresh and adapts to their shape. Often complemented with synthetic or rubber details for durability and support.
Syntetika: The synthetic upper is made of synthetic materials that are lightweight, durable and easy to clean. It provides good protection against moisture and at the same time allows for a comfortable wearing experience.
Sole
Rubber: The rubber outsole provides excellent grip and durability on a variety of surfaces. Thanks to its elasticity, it absorbs shock, increasing comfort when walking or running.
Converse trainers, sneakers, canvas shoes—call them what you will, but they are truly iconic. Founded in 1908 as the Converse Rubber Shoe Company, Converse holds the title as one of the oldest and most influential sneaker brands, boasting a rich history that few can match.
A Century of Converse and the Birth of Chuck Taylor
A key figure in the rise of Converse was Chuck Taylor, whose name is now synonymous with the brand. A basketball player, Taylor initially approached Converse with complaints about the tightness of their canvas shoes, which led to his eventual collaboration with the brand. His input helped modernize the classic Converse sneaker, and in 1932, the brand officially renamed their high-top model to the Converse Chuck Taylor, solidifying its place in history.
World War II and the Transformation of Converse
The outbreak of World War II marked a pivotal shift for Converse. The brand shifted its focus to producing durable sneakers and military gear for soldiers, temporarily halting production of its popular canvas sneakers. However, after the war, Converse returned to its roots, once again shipping their classic sneakers to eager customers.
Converse and Basketball
Originally designed for basketball players, Converse shoes became synonymous with the sport. For many years, they were the go-to sneakers for basketball players, including the legendary Michael Jordan. Over time, though, Converse lost its dominance on the court as new competitors emerged. Yet, the brand remained beloved by music fans, particularly in the rock and punk subcultures.
As Converse faced challenges in the late 20th century, Nike stepped in, purchasing the brand and breathing new life into it. This acquisition helped Converse regain its place as a cultural icon.
