New Chucks: After almost 100 years, the trend shoes change their design

Everyone loves Chucks

For almost 100 years there is this cult shoe. Every two seconds, a pair of Chucks are sold in the world, with more than a billion running through the streets so far. The full name of the sneaker is "Converse Chuck Taylor All Star". John F. Kennedy, Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Jane Birkin made the colorful sneakers famous, today you can see them at the feet of Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway, Aunt Gaby and the neighboring children.

Now, the legendary kickers have been relaunched: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II calls himself the successor. The differences to the original: The sole provides more comfort and is equipped with a new damping system. The tongue is lined with foam and non-slip, the lining is made of micro-suede lining and breathable. The rubber sole is a bit higher than the old one and the brand patch is sewn on and not glued as before. In addition, the upper material is thicker than before, which should make the shoe overall more resistant.

From 28 July 2015, the new Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II will be available in the colors black, red, blue and white as a low-top style for 75 euros and as a hi-top style for 80 euros, for example via Zalando.
