John Varvatos x Converse

2001 Chuck Taylor All Stars

John Varvatos founded his label in 2000, combining classic tailoring with a rebellious, rock-and-roll edge inspired by his deep connection to music. Known for sharp silhouettes and rugged details, his designs reflect what he describes as “clothing with soul.” In 2001, he partnered with Converse to launch the John Varvatos Chuck Taylor All Star, reimagining the iconic sneaker with distressed finishes and luxury detailing. This collaboration became a cornerstone of his brand’s identity, bridging heritage and modern craftsmanship in a way that resonates with individuality.

This take on the Chuck Taylor All Star hi-tops features a leather body and laces, with studs creeping through the leather at the heel. They also have a zipper at both sides of each shoe, allowing for a relaxed open look or just for an easy removal of the shoe.

Beat up as seen in images, but all the cooler. Plenty of life in these punk trainers.
