The Converse All Star is debatabely the most common of all sneakers, and the best selling sneaker of all time. Known for its simple design and cheap price, these All Stars can certainly be considered a legend. Converse has decided to bring back this sneaker except with a little twist to the design. Spotted in China were a pair of Denim All Star Chuck Taylor Highs with brass lase loops. As of now, we don’t know if the sneakers are available anywhere except in China, but if you know someone in China who will be willing to buy you a pair then all you need is 295RMB ($40).
