REDUCE. REUSE. REKNIT.
We took the original basketball design from the 1970’s and softened it up with a comfortable, knit upper. To maximize material and minimize waste, we used one side of an exclusive graphic print to update the 70’s icon, and the other to make over the Run Star Hike. The print shows through a white, translucent midsole for a different perspective. Finished with pop-colour eyelets, archival branding, and the extra cushioning you expect from Chuck 70.

Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Origins
By 1970, the Chuck had evolved to become the pinnacle of function and utility for sport, and was considered the best basketball sneaker ever. The Chuck 70 is built off of the original 1970s design, with premium materials and an extraordinary attention to detail. A shoe so rooted in tradition that it has its own instant history. That’s the Chuck 70. It’s not a shoe. It’s the shoe.
