Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II: Product Review

Converse has revamped their classic All Star silhouette. And we like it. In this post I will address the similarities and differences between the new Chuck II and the original Converse All Star.

The first big change is the new box. The construction is sturdier and the box just seems more solid. The branding on the top of the box is a nice change from the plain black top on the old boxes. Once we popped the box open, another little change took us by surprise; The All Star II’s we got included an extra pair of laces. Little touches make all the difference, don’t they?

The most noticeable change between the classic Chuck Taylor All Star’s and the All Star II’s is the extra padding all around. From the new insole that’s included, to little bits of extra padding on the tongue and around the heel; the Chuck II’s are definitely more comfortable. The basic construction of the shoe hasn’t seen much change. So, anyone who is used to the old silhouette of the Chuck Taylor’s and is worried about the new style of the All Star II being too different can rest easy. Also, the sizing has remained the same, which is good news for fans of the classic Chuck Taylor’s. For the uninitiated, click here  to see our sizing guide for converse chucks.

Let me stress that these Chuck’s are much more comfortable. They are now sporting Nike’s Lunarlon insole, which is a lightweight, removable option as opposed to the old model’s unwavering, flat footed insole. Another addition is perforated micro-suede padding on the inside of the tongue, as well as on the sides and heel of the foot bed. Not only does this provide an extra layer of comfort, this also keeps the foot in place a little better inside of the shoe. Another little change that goes a long way is the addition of an elastic band to the tongue of the shoe. Again, this keeps the tongue from shifting around as you wear them and helps keep the foot in place, as well.

The biggest aesthetic changes are incredibly subtle, if not downright unnoticeable. The tongue on the All Star II’s now has less of a raw edge, and instead has a heavier lining stitched to it. The solid piping on the sole is now striped. The eyelets seem to be a little sturdier. They look practically identical. Practically. Somehow, the All Star II’s look more solid. Perhaps it’s the higher quality canvas they used, or maybe the extra padding adds an extra layer of support for the shape of the shoe.

All of these changes do come with a price, though. The Chuck Taylor All Star II’s are about twenty dollars more than the classic Chuck Taylor’s. They are also not available in all of the cool colors and textures as the classic All Star’s. They are also only available at select retailers right now. Right now the options for the new model are fairly limited. However, fans of the classic black and white, grey and white, or white on white Converse have nothing to worry about.

Overall, these are a great addition to the Converse family of shoes, and will be a great addition to my collection .

New Footwear at Dress Code: Dr.Martens

New to Dress Code Clothing, we’ve taken on British footwear company, Dr. Martens. Dr. Martens is a timeless footwear company originating out of the UK, dating all the way back to 1947. Dr. Martens offers a little something for everybody, with classic silhouettes such as the 1461 for formal or casual wear, or the 1460 boot, which was heavily popularized among the punk community back in the late 70′s and 80′s. Dr. Martens produces some of the most durable footwear on the market still to this day. Let’s take a look at a few models we recently got in:

Mens 1460 Boot

Today, the 1460 boot is one of Dr. Martens most prominently seen models, also being that it was the first model ever produced by the British Footwear company, now offered in a women’s specific design for a thinner, more sleek fit. This patent leather model has become a popular choice, offered in a wide variety of colors, along with those same choices given in flat tumbled leather like the classic brick-red 1460′s below.

 

Tobias Boot

Here we see what looks to be the 1460 boot revisited with a much thinner sole. The Tobias boot is one of Dr. Martens more recent models to offer a more lightweight shoe, suitable to some for a more everyday wear.
1461 Shoe

The 1461 Shoe is one of Dr. Martens more versatile models, wearable for formal events, or just everyday wear, offering maximum durability as well as comfort.
Dorian Shoe

The Dr. Martens Dorian model offers the same comfort as the 1461 while appearing thinner across the toes. Same 3-eyelet construction, just a thinner toe box and sole. This aged brown leather pair is perfect for any occasion.

New Brand Alert: Ese

New to Dress Code Clothing comes a Tucson local street wear brand called Ese. The brand plays off of various luxury brands, composing graphics in a unique way. Ese is all about the hustle and work ethic it takes to get rich and live a lavish lifestyle as they display throughout their line of graphic tees. Here are just a few pieces we have in stock from Ese Clothing:

Get Money Tee

This Get Money tee from Ese perfectly exemplifies the lifestyle most all of us strive for on the daily, which is living a prosperous life. The best way to do that is “Get Money”. 
Homie Tee

The Homie tee features a gold foil printed graphic that twists up the recognized font of luxury brand, Hermes, while still staying true to Ese’s street wear style, with lowrider culture being a prevalent past time in Tucson’s inner city lifestyle.
Homie Beverly Hills Tee

I like to think of the Homie Beverly Hills tee the afterthought of working hard once your goals are reached. For now it’s fuel for the fire of our dreams to make it to the top. The graphic is aided by the help of a few familiar faces as well.

This is only three tees from Ese’s first collection available in-store as well as our webstore. Be sure to shop the rest of the Ese line here, and let us know which tee you’re picking up in the comments below.
