Sleek Waterproof Sneaker Lines

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Waterproof Converse are the Perfect Shoe for In-Between Seasons

— November 9, 2018 — Fashion
This waterproof Converse iteration is an ideal candidate for rainy climates. The durable boot takes on the aesthetic of the Chuck Taylor All Star silhouette, ensuring its timeless integration into the world of fashion. The exterior is a little bit thicker than the traditional model, adding a definite utilitarian aspect to the footwear.

The weather-resistance of the waterproof Converse is not the shoe's only claim to functionality, however. Foreseeing that this offering might be used in more active environments, the label uses a Nike Lunarlon insole that will surely boost comfort levels through cushioning and support. As a result, the Chuck Taylor All Star Waterproof Boot is perfect for quick and spontaneous hikes. The model retails for $150 CAD and is available online or through Foot Locker and Browns.
