The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Ox Renew Shoes are built using discarded denim products.
The Chuck Taylor is a footwear icon and recently has been getting some sustainable upgrades as part of the Renew collection, this latest model features an upper made from upcycled, discarded denim. Using different washes for each panel has given this Chuck a unique look.
A little history: by 1970, the design of the Chuck had evolved to the height of function and utility for sport and was considered the best basketball sneaker, ever. The Chuck 70 is built from that original design, with extraordinary attention to detail. Recycled canvas materials, synthetic Chuck patch details, archival rubber taping, and extra cushioning.
The Chuck 70 features higher foxing tape with an off white glossy finish for a retro look, metal ventilation eyelets and of course that rubber heel patch.
