CONVERSE x A-COLD-WALL*.Futuristic style meets next-gen comfort: Sponge Crater. A-COLD-WALL* helps reimagine a new Converse designed silhouette that pushes the limits of style and wearability with a less-is-more ethos. Samuel Ross applies his atypical contemporary aesthetic to a Converse silhouette unlike any other. The Sponge Crater also takes comfort to the next level with revolutionary CX foam underfoot, an egg-crate style traction pod outsole and the first full body made from Crater foam. The flat-knit upper helps promote breathability and the spandex collar, pull tabs and exaggerated heel kick enhance ease of entry. The avant-garde design comes to life through a thoughtful production process delivering a bold new silhouette.DetailsAll-new silhouette made in partnership with A-COLD-WALL*Smooth ease of entry: spandex collar with exaggerated heel kick and pull tabsSculpted Crater foam body for optimal comfort and knit upper with open structure in key areas for breathabilityExaggerated egg crate-style traction podsGradient and color blocked elements in knit structure with printed A-COLD-WALL* logoChuck Taylor All Star Origins
Created in 1917 as a non-skid basketball shoe, the All Star was originally promoted for its superior court performance by basketball mastermind Chuck Taylor. But over the decades, something incredible happened: The sneaker, with its timeless silhouette and unmistakable ankle patch, was organically adopted by rebels, artists, musicians, dreamers, thinkers and originals.
