One of this generation's most iconic pair of shoes is back with the Chuck Taylor Woodland Camo by Converse.
The first Chuck Taylors by Converse were released way back in 1917 and the design continues to see new colors and prints almost a century later. Converse recently revealed their spring 2013 collection at The Drake Hotel in Toronto, which included several camouflage prints.
This particular version is the Woodland Camo. Anchored by a white bottom trim and white toe cap, the low cut canvas shoe is spiced up with camouflage leather suede up top. The Woodland Camo also features a padded tongue, which is designed with skateboarders in mind. The padded tongue gives added cushion for tough landings and high impact tricks.
