Converse is the American shoe; Schott is the American jacket. A collaboration between the two powerhouses isn’t surprising, it’s expected. If anything, the only real question is why it took them more than a century to get there. Boys, the wait is over. Converse brought Chuck Taylor All Stars to the table. Schott brought a motorcycle jacket. When the dust settled, the Converse x Schott Chuck Taylor Leather Jacket is all that was left. Decked out with quilted lining, snaps, and patchwork motorcycle jacket leather. There’s also zippers under the laces and a zippered “rear entry” for those times when you don’t feel like slipping on or tying up. When it comes to shoes, this is pretty close to perfection.
