Converse Turns 100 With Special-Edition Sneaker
References: solecollector
Iconic shoe brand Converse has issued these limited-edition 100th anniversary shoes in a specially-designed box that’s shaped like a pile of books. Appropriately, the shoes come with a book that covers Converse history as well as some feel-good branding featuring 100 of today’s biggest stars wearing their All-Stars.
Happy (belated) Birthday!
To be honest, it all sounds a bit artsy for a street shoe, but there’s no denying that these will be a future collectible. The sneakers are available in a choice of three colors and two sizes only--no price is available as yet.
