Converse

Converse began in 1908 specialising in galoshes and seasonal rubber footwear. Using the techniques from making these seasonal pieces addict converse expanded into sneakers and in 1920 rebranded their basketball sneaker the ‘All Star’. The name stuck but the addict converse shoe became a cult icon - artists, musicians, skateboarders, mums, and dads all wore the ‘All Star’ in their own approach and has hardly changed in nearly 100 years.
