Converse Auckland Racer Premium

It looks as though Converse hasn't completely given up on the Auckland racer for this season.  Check out the shoes after they've been given the premium treatment.  I have to say these look pretty comfortable, and the use of leather and nubuck really look nice.


Unfortunately you half sizers will have to let these pass as they only made them in whole sizes.  Keep your else peeled for something else soon though. 

Also big thanks to Aaron he's always on top of the new stuff, he shot me an email and let me know about these.

Thanks for checking out the blog and remember to follow along on twitter @TheConverseBlog and on Facebook too.

Converse Auckland Sample

Earlier this year Converse released the Auckland Racer as part of their First String collection.  Some colorways from a potential regular release have surfaced.  I haven't seen them on any of the websites so I'm thinking the shoes may have been scrapped.  Although some colorways have been released outside of the US which I assume is where this colorway came from.  You can still find the  First String Editions out there in all 3 colorways so go ahead and pick up a pair even if you can't find this colorway.

Hopefully I can get some NBA pictures up soon...it's been a crazy week or two around these parts.  Please spread the word about TheConverseBlog.NET!!! Also if you don't already, please follow along on Twitter @TheConverseBlog
