Read MoreConverse sneakers have been around in some form or another for more than a century. First crafted in 1908, the original basketball shoes were backed by quality materials like a non-skid rubber outsole. In fact, the shoes were first named “Non-Skids.” That is until a Converse salesman and former semi-pro basketball player suggested shoe modifications for better performance. His name? Chuck Taylor.
Converse shoes are as relevant today as they were back at the turn of the 20th century. So when you’re in the market for an exceptionally versatile sneaker, look no farther than the black Converse shoe — a sneaker for the generations.
The shoe is as suited for you as it is for your child, your parent or even perhaps your grandparent. Let Hibbett connect your entire family with black Converse shoes that pair perfectly with any outfit, anytime, for anyone.
Chuck Taylor’s name wasn’t added to the All Stars until 1932, cementing his legacy with the Converse brand. Today, the Chuck Taylor All Star is the quintessential sneaker. Choose a black and white Converse All Star in a low top or high cut rendition.
Unlike today’s flashier styles, this straightforward shoe relies simply upon its time-tested craftsmanship, quality materials and iconic history. With its cotton canvas upper, metal eyelets, white sole with black stripe, All Star license plate on the heel and diamond-shaped traction pattern, the black low top Converse Chuck Taylor All Star is the go-to choice for infants and toddlers, preschoolers, grade schoolers … and those young at heart, too.
Wondering how to wear that black high top Converse, black leather shoe or modern platform sneaker? There’s no wrong way to sport those Chucks, but here are a few outfit inspirations to get you started:
• Girls and women of all ages can add a pair of black low top Converse shoes with a sporty T-shirt dress or comfortable midi skirt.
• Want an Insta-worthy athleisure outfit? Choose black bike shorts, a colorful cropped T-shirt and sunnies. Finish the look with black leather Converse.
• Black Converse men’s shoes, like the Pro Leathers, are perfect for smooth moves. These versatile black high top Converse create a tailored look when worn with dark-wash denim, a button-up shirt and a pair of Ray-Bans.
• Let your little ones express their personality with an animal print and black high top Converse. Even infants can get in on the action with a shoe that features a hook-and-loop closure and perfectly complements their most comfortable onesies.
• Amp up any wardrobe with a Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Move, an elevated shoe that takes the heritage of a classic All Star and gives it a thick foam midsole platform for a chunky silhouette.
