Converse First String Shooter

converse first string shooter 1 Converse First String Shooter

The recent drop of the Converse First String has yielded these classic ‘Shooter’ low tops. In an antique sports model, the shooter features an all canvas upper, contrast metal grommets and white non marking sole. The real treat here however, is the leather lining. Not only soft on your tootsies but much better for odor protection than nylon or polyester.

Want something that isn’t a plimsole but achieves the same style effect? The First String Shooter by Converse comes in white or black and is a great all around summer shoe. Available online.
