Why I love converse!

By | February 7, 2014

Sneakers may be the greatest footwear ever invented. They certainly are some of the most comfortable! But in my view, the best sneakers ever made are Converse All-Stars. These sneakers are classics that have been around since 1917 -that’s 80 years! They are iconic of American pop culture and have been a fashion staple in each decade since they were created. They originally became famous when a basketball player named Chuck Taylor started wearing them which led to the shoe’s nickname of “Chucks.”

The three best features of the All-Stars are their comfort, variety of colors and versatility.

All-Stars are not the shoes you want to run a marathon in but they are the perfect shoes for the ordinary, everyday activities. After a few months of wearing them, they start to get “broken in.” It’s like they mold to your feet. The more you wear them, the more they get to know your feet and the more comfortable your feet are in them.

I got my first pair in 2002, I was only 11, when they were just starting to make their most recent comeback in fashion. Mine were the low-top jeans converse. I was so excited and got all my friends to sign it one summer! J That’s what awesome about converse, how adaptable and personal they are.
