If you were looking for a pair of Cons as badass as anything you could possibly throw at them, your search is over because the Chuck Taylor just got a rugged upgrade. We’ve seen some impressive Converse releases lately, but the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Descent is unlike all the others. Suede upper and double toe cap. EVA sockliner. Rubber outsole. Neoprene inner sleeve and tongue gusset. Extended sidewalls. D-ring eyelets. Those might all be familiar features in a high-end boot, but not in a sneaker—especially one that’s been going strong for almost a century. The All Star Descent combines all those features to create a pair of kicks that are durable and cushioned while still having a secure fit and protecting you from the elements.
