Converse
A brand that is a synonym of sport. In the early days most NBA players wore the iconic Chuck’s All Stars who were named after a basketball player named Charles Hollis Taylor. In 1921 Taylor was hired as a salesman for the Converse Rubber Shoe Company. The previous year the company had introduced an earlier version of Converse All Stars as one of the first shoes specifically designed to be worn when playing basketball. Within a year of Taylor's arrival, the company had adopted his suggestions of changing the design of the Converse All Star shoe to provide enhanced flexibility and support. The restyled shoe also included a distinctive star-shape logo on the patch that protected the ankle. As a marketing representative for Converse, Taylor made his living as a salesman who traveled across the country to conduct basketball clinics and sell shoes. The name Converse still lives on, not just in the hearts of fans but on the court through players like Draymond Green and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

The iconic One Star Pro nods to its predecessor The Academy, with a classic star and two-stripe logo. Incorporating skate-inspired design cues from the early '90s, today's One Star Academy provides better boardfeel and impact protection thanks to the CX foam cushioning. The low profile adds flexibility, while a full-vintage suede upper keeps it durable and timeless.
