Converse Pride Collection

Converse Shoes

The Converse Pride collection comes to us with vibrant rainbow colors and wild stylistic updates to our favorite Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star Shoe. With Pride Parades coming to us throughout the nation, it’s a nice way to show off what we and others stand for – equality for all. San Francisco, being one of the largest pride parades in the nation, will kick off on June 25th so these Chucks come just in time for the festivities.

This is what Chuck Taylors are supposed to look like

So we’ve all heard about the “worn” look on any Converse Chuck Taylor All Star sneaker, but how do you get that clean cut look that’s just enough rough and also looks great with your best pair of slacks?

The answer is hand-dying them. That’s what Tenue de Nimes does and you can get your very own pair.

This is by far the best look we’ve seen with the freshness of a new pair of shoes but the worn out look to show that your Chucks have character. The best part about it is that you can rough them up and add your own stories to these pari of beautiful sneaks, and the stylized colorations will remain.

We give these Chucks 10/10 for their beauty, artistic style, and it’s just a damn good story to say that your Chucks were hand dyed. But, with everything great in life, it comes with a hefty price tag.

Let’s Talk About Joggers

Okay, first things first. Joggers, they’re here to stay. There are a lot of people that are putting down joggers, but we don’t feel that way.

Joggers go especially well with Chucks. Here’s how to do it:

Low Tops
If you are sporting the low tops, go with no show socks or no socks at all. This is the best way to show off your freedom of the wind flowing past your ankles. This works for both guys and adventerous girls.

High Tops
If you are wearing high tops, socks can be a bit longer since you probably won’t be catching a glimpse. Sport high tops, leathers, or Chuck Taylor II with your joggers. It gives you that rugged look and depending on the joggers you have, maybe even a bit of casual vs professional mixed in. Trust us, it works!

Go for it! And let us know how it looks by showing us some Twitter and Instagram love.

Legel Rebels sport Chuck Taylors

The ABA Journal celebrates innovation within the legal profession and gave each of this year’s Legal Rebel winners a pair of custom Chucks as a wearable symbol of nonconformity.

 

More lawyers should wear Chucks. The Chuckverse team spotted this article through user feedback. An interesting array of Chuck wearing Laywers. Whether it brings about the symbolism of nonconformity? Let’s get the Jury on that one! In any case, we think more lawyers should wear Chucks.
