In this ongoing article I will be compiling a list of shoes that I feel every shoe collector should have, from the innovative classic releases, to the technologically more advanced modern releases.
This should be done once a week, every week I will display a model, and on the description have the brand, model and release date. Be sure to ask questions if you have any.
This week we start with the ever classic chucks. First released by Converse in 1917, under the name Non-Skids, this sneakers were later perfected in 1949, to the version we now know as Converse All-Stars, by Charles Taylor himself.

Definitely a must have.

I have four pairs, three of them white, of which one in canvas like the ones on the article, and the other two are all white leather, one low and the other high, the fourth pair is light blue canvas a pink sole. Need a pair of all black leather.
So Converse is 100 year old this year? Didn't know that!
The amazing part is how the shoe model comes from Chuck and the Converse sponsored team he played in.
