Converse unveiled more iterations of the classic Stars & Bars sneaker model following the footwear designs' recent celebration of its 50th anniversary. The latest update arrives in a vintage leather update and low-top silhouette, contributing to the brand's Timeline series.
The Vintage Leather iteration stays in correlation to the design language of the Timeline series with the retro design elements to the overall look. The premium construction also nods to contemporary elements and it can be seen through the details of spaced eyelets intricately placed or the soft path behind the tongue. Additional details include the black heel tab replicating the debut model and the black leather upper atop the thick rubber sole unit that delivers durability.
