Whilst most fashion trends from the 70s wouldn’t make the cut today, footwear is a different beast and there is plenty of examples of top notch shoes from decades ago that are well worthy of being reborn today and the perfect example of this is the rather awesome Converse All Star Chuck ’70 Leather Trainers.
These wonderfully understated trainers take their style inspiration from the 1970s, a decade that was typified by artistic expression and a name synonymous with Converse, Chuck Taylor, was right in the thick of it. The uncompromising style of these Converse All Star Chuck ’70 Leather Trainers will unquestionably appeal to fans of the iconic American brand and they are a celebration of the designs that Taylor worked on during the 70s.
Though they boast retro design, the Converse All Star Chuck ’70 Leather Trainers have modern materials and design details which brings them well and truly into the 21st century and an eye-catching pair of trainers that will definitely catch the eye of footwear aficionados out there. The pièce de résistance of the Converse All Star Chuck ’70 Leather Trainers is the awesome rawhide laces that adds a level of cool to these already painfully dapper sneakers.

Converse are a brand that we’ve got a lot of time for here at Coolector HQ and few footwear purveyors have such longevity as this cracking American label. It is because of fantastic releases like the Converse All Star Chuck ’70 Leather Trainers that they have established such an excellent reputation and we can’t wait to see what other footwear they will be releasing onto the market in 2015, which has already got off to a great start so far as Converse are concerned.
