Converse All Star
The design of the Chuck Taylor All Star shoe has remained virtually unchanged since its launch. And the designers know why. The popularity of these shoes remains high even though the original shoes were first made in 1917. The brand is recognized as the global king of canvas shoes. They have a much stronger, tougher and more comfortable sole than competing canvas shoes. The trademark of quality is mainly the use of the best shoe glue on the market and strong seams.
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.
Midsole
Rubber: As a midsole, it is used when maximum stability and durability is a priority instead of soft cushioning. Unlike foam materials, rubber does not sag and retains its shape even under extreme loads. It is often found in minimalist footwear for natural contact with the terrain or in work boots where it protects the foot from sharp objects. It provides excellent response and durability, making it a reliable element for specific sports disciplines such as weightlifting or skate.
Sole
Wafer: A revolutionary type of sole characterised by its square grid pattern that resembles the texture of a waffle. This design was originally conceived to create a lightweight sole that would provide excellent traction on different types of surfaces without the need for heavy metal spikes. The protruding rubber lugs act as independent cushioning elements that absorb shock on impact and provide maximum grip on rebound. The waffle outsole is prized for its flexibility and light weight, making it an ideal choice for running shoes and stylish leisure footwear where stability and a sure stride are emphasized.
Converse sneakers, Converse sneakers, Converse capes or simply Converse sneakers - you can call them whatever you like. The important thing is that this brand came on the market in 1908 as the Converse Rubber Shoe Company, which makes Converse shoes one of the sneakers with the longest and from many angles the richest history.
A century of Converse and the birth of Chuck Taylor
The great Converse sneaker boom was helped by a man whose name is far from unknown today, at least to those who wear Converse. His name was Chuck Taylor. He was a basketball player who came into the store at the time saying that his sneakers were making his feet sore. Little did he know how much of an impact Converse shoes would have in the future. In fact, over time, he made a deal with the brand to become an ambassador. He was instrumental in modernizing the classic Converse high top silhouette, which was given the name of Taylor himself in 1932. Thus, the Converse Chuck Taylor sneaker was born.
A major change in production hit Converse shoes with the advent of World War II. The company began to orientits production towards the militaryinstead of the public . Converse sneakers were transformed into durable Converse sneakers for soldiers, and a range of other equipment including protective clothing was added to the range. After the war, production went back to normal and the traditional Converse capes were once again on their way to their happy customers.
Converse and basketball
It will come as a surprise to many Chuck Taylor fans that this was originally a shoe designed primarily for basketball players. And indeed, for a long time Conversky held its place as the most popular shoe of basketball players. Over time, the Chuck Taylor model has already been replaced on the playing field by its successors, but Converse shoes still enjoyed popularity. Even the legendary Michael Jordanwore them .
With the strong emergence of competition towards the end of the 20th century, Converse sneakers began to disappear from the space between the two baskets. On the other hand, they experienced a big boom among rockers and the punk subculture, but even these communities couldn't prevent the downfall that was imminent for Converse shoes. But Nikecame to the rescue of the drowning legend, buying the company and pulling Converse out of the bottom.
