Converse Sport Casual sneakers

Converse is a legendary American footwear brand that has transitioned from a professional basketball shoe to a global lifestyle icon. Founded in 1908 by Marquis Mills Converse in Massachusetts, the brand remains famous for its canvas-and-rubber silhouette, most notably the Chuck Taylor All Star.

Since 2003, Converse has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nike, Inc. This acquisition allowed Converse to leverage Nike's massive global infrastructure while maintaining its independent brand identity. Today, Converse products are manufactured across a global supply chain, primarily in Asian countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, and China, where large-scale production facilities handle the brand's diverse portfolio ranging from classic canvas models to modern leather and synthetic sport-casual designs.

In recent years, the brand has continued to evolve by offering new technical variations of its classics and expanding its presence in the streetwear market. It remains headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, operating as a distinct business unit under the Nike corporate umbrella.
