Now that Converse is officially part of the Nike online portolio, you can design your own Chucks from scratch. You’ve been able to customize individual pairs in the past, but this process takes some of the most iconic sneaker silhouettes in history (Chuck Highs, Lows and Slips) and puts you in the driver’s seat ala NIKEiD. You want star-spangled sides and a bright blue tongue? No problem. Black rubber sidewall with an urban camo body? Again, not a problem. We’re not going to do the “total possible combinations” math, but there are 9 different shoe areas you choose with options for prints and solid colors for almost all of them. It’s a lot of combinations, and that means you get to design to the perfect shoe for you.
