Overview
The Chuck 70 is Converse's premium reissue of the 1970s Chuck Taylor All Star. Against the standard model it runs a heavier canvas, a higher rubber foxing, more cushioning underfoot and the glossy egret midsole with black racing stripe that marks the era it draws from. It's the version built to the original spec rather than the modern one.
Description
This is the Black Monogram colourway of the Kith x Converse Chuck 70 High. It comes from the Kith collaboration — a limited release rather than a general-line product, produced in smaller numbers and not repeated. It's a straightforward pair to wear, pairing as well with relaxed denim as it does with a more considered outfit. Sourced brand new and authenticated, and shipped from New Zealand with free delivery on orders over $350.
