No this isn’t one of those high-end brands making a shoe that just-so happens to look like a Chuck Taylor. It’s a good ol’ Chuck Taylor, but with a new twist.  Converse probably noticed they didn’t have a model to compete against the rising success of strappy sneakers, say, Reebok’s Ex-O-Fit or Supra’s TK Society.  Even DC got the hint and made the Admiral WT.  Alas, Converse upped the ante and added a double strap to their staple shoe.  Rather than laces going all the up and choking the ankles, the two velcro straps add a more contemporary look (not to mention makes less left-over lacing since most of us never tied it all the way up anyway).  But this isn’t the only modification.  Elastic padding is fitted as an upper heel counter for extra comfort.  In monochrom choices of white or black, these are a nice new look for the old shoe brand.  via streething.com
