Converse's history
Converse has been a staple in urban, sportswear and lifestyle fashion for more than a century and has impacted pop culture for just as long. Founded in 1908, the American brand which started as a rubber boot manufacturer quickly evolved to become one of the first brands to be specialized in athletic footwear; first tennis and then basketball, Converse being for decades one of the most popular brands among professional basketball players to be worn on court. In 1936, Converse even designed the official shoe of team USA during the first basketball Olympics tournament, in Berlin. Other little known fact: Wilt Chamberlain played his 100-point game wearing Chuck Taylors All Stars!
More than a brand, a lifestyle
Despite being at the top of the sports world, Converse has progressively decreased involvement in team sports throughout the years, to focus on its lifestyle component. The transition was seamless, Converse becoming the iconic cult, brand that we all know today with legendary footwear models such as the Chuck Taylor All Star, which rubber sole, smooth rounded top and wrap-around strip made famous the world over. Other models such as Cons or Jack Purcells, all sporting Converse's Star Insigna logo, are also some of the most famous footwear models of all time. All in all, Converse is a cultural phenomenon that will never go out of style. Today, Converse is synonym with self-expression, creativity and pure fun. The US-founded brand is everywhere. Rock stars wear Converse on stage. Movie stars wear Converse on red carpets photoshoots. Skateboarders wear Converse to pull off the craziest of tricks. Kurt Cobain rocked Converse sneakers.
