CONVERSE SELF EXPRESSION! - YOUR LATEST FASHION ACCESSORY - RUN STAR TRAINER

Running, Fencing, Volleyball, Wrestling and looking hot. What do these have in common? They all served as inspiration for Converse’s all-new silhouette, the Run Star Trainer. Inspired by past to future the Run Star Trainer is the perfect accessory to enhance your look, giving you sleek and next level boldness that stands out from the rest.

 Modern Low-Profile Offering Combines Best of Sport’s Past with Versatility for Today's Lifestyle!

A departure from many offerings in the Converse lineup, the Run Star Trainer synthesizes, and in turn, modernizes, components of Converse’s DNA, tapping the multiplicity of Converse’s sport history unknown to most. The new silhouette demonstrates prowess in pulling from familiar histories and styles, to reimagine its footwear from the ground up. The shoe even takes inspiration from modern artistry through different mediums such as pottery. 
The Run Star Trainer takes cues from nearly 20 heritage silhouettes, all of which were originally purpose built for sports including karate, fencing, soccer, wrestling, triple jump…even, steeple chase. The outsole tread pattern is also conceptualized from the Chuck Taylor All Star, extended in an exaggerated fashion through the heel and is stamped with the Star logo of the Run Star Hike, first introduced in 2019.

Exploration has always been an essential component of the brand and has allowed for continued experiments in colour, fit, material and proportion. The mix of materials in the Run Star Trainer - nylon, suede, and leather - offer the upper a rich dimensionality, with an array of bold color choices, including Golden Wren, Blue, Red, Egret and Black available at launch.
The next chapter of Converse continues to unfold and with this new addition to the Converse family, the Run Star Trainer truly encapsulates the diversity of our people in Mzansi and all the multi-talents they possess and express through art, fashion, music, dance and sports.
The Converse Run Star Trainer is now available in Converse Stores Nationally as well as Converse.com from only R1 599.00.
