There’s no denying it: Sneakers are everywhere. They’ve managed to find a way into the hearts and wardrobes of even those who find themselves exercise averse. While we’re not complaining, we will be honest and say that it takes a certain style to capture our attention.
We’ve already sung the praises of Converse’s original Chuck Taylor All Star, the throwback All Star ’70 and the comfier-than-ever All-Star II.
And now, the brand has unveiled a new stylish upgrade that most definitely ticks all the right boxes. Introducing, the Chuck Taylor All Star Modern Lux.
The Evolution: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Modern Lux
Fusing classic sports heritage with modern design, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Modern Lux features a new, streamlined silhouette and fashion-forward design details.
They’re (almost) an entirely new breed of kicks because not only do they boast a monochromatic colourway, but they’re also made of leather. This means they’re sleek, super sturdy and way easier to clean than the average canvas pair (win!). Not to mention, they’re lightweight and comfortable thanks to a contoured full-length Phylon outsole.
And, just like their predecessor, these sneaks are pretty darn versatile. But the bonus details give them a sportier, more modern look that’s still appropriate for work or play.
So, if you’re looking for a new pair of kicks to carry you through to spring, we reckon the Modern Lux is the style to go for. Sure, they may not be for everyone, but anyone who dares to pull off these kicks gets major street cred in our book.
The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Modern Lux are now available in black and white, online and in stores.
