There’s no denying that celebs love Converse. From red carpets to Coachella and even the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show — where Snoop Dogg rocked a pair of white low-tops with bright yellow laces to match his bandana-print tracksuit — there’s something special about the Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers.

Aside from Snoop, Gwen Stefani, Pharrell, Rihanna, Dua Lipa, BTS, Selena Gomez, Harry Styles and Justin Bieber are on the short list of stars who have worn Chuck Taylors or have collaborated with the brand. Even Elvis Presley wore Chucks.

Converse originally introduced their signature basketball shoe in 1917. The design underwent an update in the ’20s after former basketball legend Chuck Taylor approached Converse to make the shoe more comfortable for basketball players. Taylor’s input gave us the iconic design we know today, which typically includes white stitching, a white toe cap and rubber sole.

Trending on Billboard

Chuck Taylors were the hottest shoes on the basketball court until around the 1970s when other shoe brands began introducing sneakers aimed at athletes. Today, Converse Chuck Taylors are beloved for their retro design. The brand has also released special-edition shoes celebrating artists like Jimi Hendrix, Black Sabbath and Blondie.

If you’ve searched for Converse online but never end up buying them, take this as a reminder to invest in a new pair! Because Chuck Taylors are so popular and now that it’s finally festival season, we’ve rounded up some styles to shop and alternative destinations to purchase the classic sneaker (besides the Converse website) in different color schemes.
