Converse One Star Running introduce new Converse Sense Technology.

 Converse has finally returned to the performance running category, albeit it's through their One Star brand exclusively sold at Target and Amazon.  Below are the two men colorways in white/navy/yellow and the black/white/silver.  There is also a womens colorway in sliver/blue.

Also in the shoe is Converse's new cushioning technology named "Converse Sense."  I don't know much about it other then it appears to be a foam based system.  I hope to  have more information soon.

Here is the Women's colorway









I'm obviously very excited, this is the first time Converse has offered a performance running shoe since...well around 2000 when they had one Helium running shoe release.  I hope this is a sign of things to coming from the Star and Chevron side of Converse.  Anyway, follow along for more updates on twitter @TheConverseBlog

Converse Dunkit 3/4

The second of the three re-branded Dwyane Wade shoes has surfaced, well sort of. I've found pictures on Academy Sports and Big 5 Sports for the Converse Dunkit, but neither of them offer online sales. This was supposed to be a Dicks Sporting Goods exclusive named the Wade Clutch 2...now it looks like the shoe has been offered to other accounts.

I've been more excited about this shoe then even the Weapon EVO....I love the overall look of this shoe more and plus it has an inner booty! 











Hopefully more and more stores will start to bring out the Converse Dunkit as the two mentioned above have done so in the last week.  Hopefully it will even show up on Converse.Com, but we'll have to see.  If not you might have find a Big 5 sports or Academy sports near you....follow along on twitter @TheConverseBlog
