Behind the Canvas – Episode Two: The Converse Silhouettes

For the second episode in our exclusive Converse series, we’ve taken a look at some of the key silhouettes that have helped bring the brand to prominence over the past century – with each encapsulating the DNA behind the label.

While over at the Converse Boston HQ we got the chance to sit down with Special Projects Design Director, Matt Sleep, who talked us through each of the icons behind the brand: The All Star Chuck 70s, Jack Purcell, Lucky Star and One Star. He elaborates on the timelessness of each model, and how they’ve been very subtly updated over the years to fit a modern wearer.
