Converse

Converse is an iconic American footwear brand known for its classic Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers. Founded in 1908, Converse originally produced rubber-soled athletic shoes that became popular with basketball players in the early 20th century. The timeless design and canvas upper of the Chuck Taylor have made it a cultural icon, worn by people of all ages and backgrounds as a versatile, comfortable, and affordable casual shoe. While Converse was acquired by Nike in 2003, it has maintained its distinct brand identity and continued to be one of the most recognizable shoe brands worldwide, symbolizing youth culture, music, and counterculture movements throughout its long history.
