First released in 1917, the more-than-iconic Converse Chuck Taylor All Star finally gets a sequel. Introducing the Chuck Taylor II, the brand’s revamp of the most famous sneaker in the world. Knowing not too mess with perfection, Converse crafts the shoe with appealing new details, but keeps the original silhouette intact. Officially unveiled in Boston yesterday with media and special guests in attendance, the Chuck Taylor II’s most important new feature is a new Nike Lunarlon insole for more comfort and cushion than you’d ever expect from the shoe. Other details of the redesign include a durable canvas construction, foam padded collar, non-slip gusseted tongue, a clean solid white midsole, and gum rubber outsole. In both the original high and low editions, the Chuck Taylor II debuts in black, blue, red, and white colorways on July 28th at finer Converse retailers globally.
