In 2003, finding himself overtaken by events, Converse was bought by the giant to the point, which was far from being a disgrace. Considering the star as a father, Nike will give it a new skin. It therefore defines the brand as an immortal style, leaving it with its own point of sale, without touching the mythical models. Gilgeous-Alexander, point guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder, has become the new face of the brand. The shoe, "Chase the Drip" was released on September 13, 2022.

There’s a stark contrast between Mr Taylor and star players of the later era, the likes of Messrs Michael Jordan and Walt “Clyde” Frazier, whose names are still used to sell sneakers nowadays. The Converse coach’s celebrity didn’t come from his prowess on the court – there’s no real evidence to suggest he even played the sport professionally – but through his association with All Stars.In 1910, the production of shoes began to increase in volume. But it was not until 1915 that Marquis Mills launched its range of products for the sports world. At the time, shoes were not considered as a stylish accessory, so production was still shy. Indeed, at that time, canvas shoes only found their place in top-level sport because of their resistant sole and their lightness. a b Bertho, Michelle; Crawford, Beverly; Fogarty, Edward A.

What determines Nike's appropriation of Converse is really this desire to preserve a heritage. It is a refusal of nostalgia that passes through ever more innovative variants of a model engraved in history. The star ranges have become extremely rich artistic supports that can inspire all styles. It is a shoe that promotes the expression of personality. This dazzling success is an example for all designers and markers in the world of football and business in general. But this kind of career is no longer very surprising nowadays. What does mark people's minds, however, is the star's ability to have been omnipresent at every turn of popular culture and to charm the different generations. In 2012, Converse was listed as a partner in the (RED) campaign, together with other brands such as Nike, Inc., Girl, and Bugaboo. The campaign's mission is to prevent the transmission of the HIV virus from mother to child by 2015 (the campaign's byline is "Fighting For An AIDS Free Generation"). [52]

Over a century of influence

A special collection called "1Hund (RED)", whereby fifteen percent of the profits are used to support HIV/AIDS prevention, was released by the brand. One hundred artists from around the world were chosen to create designs for the collection as part of the (RED) campaign. Professional skateboarder Anthony Pappalardo released a (RED) edition of his high-selling signature skate shoe model in February 2010. [49] [50] Pappalardo explains: Kareen Copeland (June 8, 2020).

That is not to say that design tweaks weren’t made along the way. “Looking at the first decade and a half of its life… they are constantly updating, tinkering with it in little ways, making improvements to it, whether it was different weights of canvas and rubber or adding corrugation, the little grooves around the outsole,” Mr Smallidge explains.

As of July 2014, the Cons skateboard team consisted of original members Anderson, Trapasso, Baca, and Glifberg, while Jessee, Anderson, Julian Davidson, Remillard, Zered Basset, Ben Raemers, Jake Johnson, Eli Reed, Louie Lopez, Sage Elsesser, and Sean Pablo were subsequently added.

[48] Philanthropy [ edit ] One of the main focuses for the last five years, he tells MR PORTER, has been the brand’s “Converse Renew” initiative. “When it comes to sustainability, we know that that’s a point of value within our brand and also a connection point with our consumers”. The project’s aims so far have been to explore waste-less material alternatives, including a denim line made from upcycled jeans, “Renew” cotton part manufactured from the brand’s canvas scraps that end up on the cutting room floor, and a partnership with First Mile to turn plastic bottle pollution into canvas.

Indeed, today, any artist can appropriate the pairs. Music stars starting with Nirvana, Elvis Presley or Taylor the Creator much more recently with his label GOLF le FLEUR*. Recently in France, it was Lomepal that also customised and put on sale a pair of limited quantities of One Star. In the aftermath, converse groups appeared in the world of cinema. We find them, for example, at the feet of James Dean in the cultissime Fury of Life but also at the feet of Ewan McGregor in Trainspotting. The arrival of these partners in Hollywood is clear proof of the high speed success of the Converse trend. Lance Dawes; Cory Williams (August 6, 2012). "RAYBOURN CRUISES THROUGH CARNAGE".
