Converse All Star 1917

Do not get these mixed up with Chuck Taylor All Stars!
These are the original design prior to Chucks endorsement of the shoe in 1932
Hard to believe they had such iconic footwear back then. And did they know how big their design would be. 
Originally for the basketball court. These ever famous shoes are now worn around the world and the brand is a universal icon. It seems that everyone can remember owning a pair of these at some point and most still do. 
If you need to ask why the logo is on the inside of the ankle! It's a padded feature designed to protect the ankle bones from bashing together........now you know. Lol
A basic yet instantly recognisable shoe.
