The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star is as iconic as the brand itself — a sartorial icon for decades. Among the oldest gym shoes known to man, the style boasts a long history nearly 100 years in the making and at last, is getting a makeover, though not one drastic enough to distort the version we’ve all come to know and love. Comfort is the name of the game as the new upgrades will improve on the shoe’s notorious lack of proper cushioning. With a non-slip gusseted tongue, padded collar and a Nike Lunarlon sicklier support, these ain’t your grandpa’s Chuck Taylor All Star II, that’s for sure.
