HICKORY STRIPE.First worn by train engineers and railroad workers, this tight-knit stripe pattern is deeply rooted in American workwear heritage-and a perfect match for our vintage, '70s icon. The Converse Chuck 70 takes this classic look and updates it for today with an upper made from about 50% recycled cotton dyed fabric, a 100% recycled polyester star ankle patch, and a 100% recycled polyester heel loop to help with on and off. An OrthoLite sockliner and winged tongue stitching helps keep it comfortable, while a varnished egret midsole elevates this workwear-inspired look.?DetailsHigh-top shoe with about 50% recycled canvas upperWorkwear hickory stripe print stands out against a solid-coloured tongue100% recycled polyester star ankle patch and 100% recycled polyester heel loop put a twist on traditional materialsVarnished, egret midsole for a classic lookOrthoLite sockliner helps keep it comfortableChuck Taylor All Star 70 OriginsBy 1970, the Chuck had evolved to become the pinnacle of function and utility for sport, and was considered the best basketball sneaker ever.
