The History of Converse
The founder of the Converse Rubber Shoe Company was Marquis Mills Converse, who had gained knowledge of the footwear industry by working as a manager for a shoe manufacturing firm. When his new brand started production in 1908, the primary focus was on rubber-soled items known as galoshes, but the company was set to expand in a different direction.
After more than a decade of operation, Converse officially became a supplier of athletic footwear, joined by the legendary Charles H. ‘Chuck’ Taylor, whose name would become forever attached to the All Star trainer. These sport-focused products were made for the basketball court, and the brand dominated this arena for decades. However, the ’80s and ’90s saw them receive a push into mainstream fashion, with hip-hop artists raising their profile and turning Converse shoes into an icon of music culture—and consequently, street culture.
