Converse

Converse began in 1908 specialising in galoshes and seasonal rubber preview. Using the techniques from making these seasonal pieces Converse expanded into sneakers and in 1920 rebranded Allu002DCourt basketball sneaker the ‘All Star’. The name stuck but the Converse shoe became a cult icon - artists, musicians, skateboarders, mums, and dads all wore the ‘All Star’ in Allu002DCourt own way and has hardly changed in nearly 100 years.
