Converse Shoes

Known originally as footwear specialists who produced basketball shoes and other sports footgear, Converse moves beyond the merely functional. Now, many running shoe collectors eagerly anticipate the next wave of funky stylings from people who know that big and small youth like their feet sweet looking.

Here's a real winner: the Converse Men's All Star Graffiti shoe designed by the legendary Cope II who puts his signature touch on this visual stunner. How about the classic checkered pattern in red/black/charcoal with the All Star Houndstooth high tops? Check out the freaky, psychedelic artwork of the Chuck Taylor-designed All Star Hi Funk Flo. Real rad for crazy times.

Not everybody's got the nerve to wear plaid runners but you'll stand out from the mosh pit (after you pick yourself off the floor) with the Men's Allstar Print Hi sneakers. We dare you the wear the pink/orange/white version!

Out dribble your opponents on the court as they drool over your All Star Flame basketball shoes that feature another Chuck Taylor design with hot rod flame graphics emblazoned on both sides of the shoe. It's all about performance with the Men's Aero Jam Hi basketball shoe that provides exclusive tunable ride heel technology and flex grooves in the forefoot.

For the little ones, try the Little Kids All Star Hi, the Toddlers All Star Hi and the Converse Infants First Star Crib. Cheerleading or playing volley ball becomes a lot more fun for girls with the Women's Team Discovery shoes. A sculpted midfoot arch and an anatomically correct forefoot flex grooves allow the feet plenty of ability to hop, skip and jump for hours.

Converse puts your feet in both singular creations that boast an unusual profile and outstanding performance. Get with the beach, the skatepark, the basketball court or just the streets with Converse gear from eastbay.com.
