Following up on the hightop return, Converse Japan readies the Chevronstar’s lowtop counterpart. The Converse Canvas Chevronstar CX-250 SU OX is actually built in suede with leather accents, a gold and black combination that always manages to look ‘vintage’ even when they’re brand new. A classically styled vulcanized sole furthers the classic look on this 1977 basketballer, but are they different enough from the Pro Leather, Nike’s Blazer and Bruin or adidas’ Nizza to warrant a purchase? Let us know after you’ve seen the gold pair as well as its inverse plus one in garnet, and stick with Sneaker News for word on US availability.
