Once a superstar, always a superstar. When they rule this hard, the kids definitely need to dress the part. That’s why the Converse universe has always been right on point. Kids’ footwear has never been fresher or cooler. The iconic One Star may have been designed for basketball players. However, decades of big love for this truly big shoe have proven it a versatile success anywhere and everyone. It’s just what kids and parents alike love.
You Say You Want a Revolution
Change. It was the hallmark of the Converse design evolution. When the late 1960s Converse All Star essentially revolutionized basketball, nothing was ever the same again. By the ’70s, the pros were rocking their low-cuts on the court — and even off the court. Enter the newest addition to the mix: the One Star. Sporty, fresh, and totally new, it featured a refreshed height, crisp stripes, and a cool look. Even when stars replaced the stripes, people still went wild for these all-star favorites.
A Favorite Returns
Everything old is new again. It’s an adage that’s remained true for decades, especially in fashion circles. While the One Star was long gone by the 1990s, people definitely had a taste for that old-school flavor — and Converse delivered. Part of the lineup of kids’ Converse low tops, the One Star was a street-style fave. It was a must for everyone from rockers to skateboarders and everyone in between.
Today, this amazingly well-rounded style is everything to every kid. They can rock them anywhere from the playground to the backyard to the classroom. Styles incorporate all of the good stuff, like mild neutrals, wild prints, and bold colors. They can rock these in gym class. On the basketball court. Running around on the track. Hanging with friends and family. On the boardwalk during vacation. Anywhere. Everywhere.
No Limits
There are no limits — that’s the bottom line when it comes to the epic One Star. It pops up in the Converse sale from time to time so you can snap up a pair or two for the littles with no guilt. Do they love the look of kids’ platform Converse or Converse Chinatown Market shoes? Now’s a great time to grab those, too. The One Star looks amazing in all its iterations, with anything from jeans to denim skirts. From joggers to shorts. From tees to tanks. Talk about a superstar.
