In 1908, Marquis Mills Converse decided to start a rubber shoe company. Shortly after in 1918, Chuck Taylor joined the company and the All Star shoe with its distinctive diamond patterned sole was introduced, inspired by the sport, basketball. Many other shoe designs for other sports began to follow. Inspiration was not only drawn from sports but from influences like the rock and roll era during 1948-1958.
1974 saw the change of design in the All Star sneaker. Remade in colorful suede with a big, bold star on the side, it was built for basketball—but there was something about its brashness and brightness that would make it irresistible to a generation of rockers, skaters and rebellious souls. Then in ’76 came the Pro Leather, an instant favourite in a time when the game needed a vibe. For now, it has delighted millions of fans around the world with its great design meets functionality shoes and products.
The signature star logo of the brand is instantly recognisable around the world. It is a hot favourite among famous celebrities around the world and among many youths and young adults across the globe. Many choose the Converse canvas shoes as their choice of footwear today. From shoes, the product offerings have branched out to Converse clothing for women, men and children. You can even design and custom make your own sneakers in your favourite colours. Accessories like bags, caps and pencil cases are also available.
