The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70s Hi Black provides a classic design that continues the tradition of perhaps one of the oldest athletic shoes in the history of footwear.Although the history surrounding Converse began to take shape as early as 1917, the company designed the Chuck Taylor All Star 70s Hi Black and similar models decades later as part of a tribute to the original shoe. The newer silhouette maintains many of the aesthetic aspects of its predecessor, but some of the fittings and materials have been updated as a way to make a robust shoe that Converse fans and footwear enthusiasts might be able to wear for decades to come. The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70s Hi Black includes a premium canvas upper that is double-ply for extra strength and durability while the stitching near the toe is reinforced but designed to keep the classic look of the original. Converse added some extra padding to the insole in an effort to provide collectors or wearers with additional arch support and more cushioning for comfort.The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70s Hi Black released in January 2018 for $85.
