The low-top legend gets redesigned for kids, with a cushioned SmartFOAM sockliner plus softened stitches and linings. Chuck Taylor classics, like the woven "All Star" tongue label and canvas upper, get a lift from the stacked, EVA-cushioned midsole. No height requirement here.
Created in 1917 as a non-skid basketball shoe, the All Star was originally promoted for its superior court performance by basketball mastermind Chuck Taylor. But over the decades, something incredible happened: The sneaker, with its timeless silhouette and unmistakable ankle patch, was organically adopted by rebels, artists, musicians, dreamers, thinkers and originals.
