Converse

Do you know converse?

Have you ever noticed in the middle of the mark, there are two words written in cursive?

Actually it's a name.

It was printed on to honor a person who had had contributed a lot to the Converse Rubber Shoe Company.

He is called --- Chuck Taylor.

He was a basketball player invested by Converse Rubber Shoe Company, and then the coach of the basketball team ---The Converse All Stars.

Guess what?

Converse all star was at first designed for basketball players!

With the help of Chuck, the Converse was able to modify the shoes and made them more suitable for the players.

Converse became the most seen shoes on the basketball court, maybe the only seen at that time before Nike appear, and they were taken over by Nike then.

This is amazing!!

The converse all star can also be called Chuck Taylor All-stars, and was evaluate from basketball shoes!

But what's more amazing is that converse was at first designed for soccer!!
