In Spring 2013 Converse re-issued the All Star Chuck 70. The brand has incorporated subtle touches and finishes that pay homage to 1970s legends in sports and music. What makes this re-issue quite special is that it has added features that signal both modern improvements (such as added cushioning and a higher rubber foxing along the midsole) and more vintage details such as extra stitching on the sidewall and premium heavy canvas uppers.

For this special edition, Converse partnered up with Stockholm based legendary vintage shop Beyond Retro to create a special Chuck 70 Hi. With an upper made from upcycled flannels from their stock, this sure is a special bit of kit.
