Features of Chuck Taylor All Star Platform Low

Chuck Taylor All Star Platform Low History
While many love the Chuck Taylor silhouette, few know these kicks have been with us for longer than a century. It all started in 1915 when Converse started applying its rubber knowledge to developing sneakers. (The company previously manufactured galoshes and cleats.) In 1917, the brand produced a high-top silhouette named the Non-Skid. Little did Converse know that this simple canvas shoe would shoessneakersr become synonymous with the game of basketball.
Three years after the brand came out with the Non-Skid, Converse renamed it the All Star. That wouldn’t be the end of the name change, however, because 14 years shoessneakersr, in 1934, Converse would again rename the shoes. This time in honor of the man who did so much for the game, and who, more than anyone else, helped the Converse name become a byword in the basketball industry.
The shoes were such a resounding success that by the 1960s, about 90 percent of players wore Chuck Taylor All Stars. Sadly, however, after decades of reigning supreme in the court, the Rucsac of the Chucks as bball footwear waned. In the shoessneakers 70s, it came to an end. But the 70s were also the time when the sneakers would enter a new phase in life as casual shoes.
As lifestyle sneakers, a vast number of colorways sprouted for the Chuck Taylors. They also became the subject of a number of collaborations and were treated to different reinterpretations. One of the most recent iterations of the old classic is this elevated silhouette. Staying mostly faithful to its roots, the Converse CTAS Platform Lows captured the classic styling of the original and mixed it flawlessly with subtle modern tweaks.
