Converse Background Info

Converse is a shoe company with a history as rich and long as the sport of Basketball. In 1908, Converse Rubber Shoe Company was founded in Massachusetts by Marquis Converse. The rubber soles were meant to winterize the shoe and became very popular. Popular was fine but Converse became legendary when they designed the very first performance basketball shoe just 25 years after the sport hit the scene. The first player to introduce the shoes to the court was Chuck Taylor, making the shoe an instant phenomenon. By the end of the 1920s every basketball player to hit the court was wearing the Chuck Taylor Converse All Stars. The Converse tradition kept moving and changing, even defining the music scene in the 1980s, but the shoes stayed virtually the same. Today you can choose between hundreds of Converse All Star designs, still bearing the Chuck Taylor name. Converse even has a line of specially designed All Stars as part of the Product Red movement to help women and children with AIDS in Africa. Converse makes shoes for men, women and children and are a loved brand worldwide. With hundreds of different designs including the classic high top trainer and the very popular low top, you are likely to find more than one pair of Converse trainers to add to your shoe collection.
