Wait—before you read even one more word, watch this commercial for the original Converse Weapons from 1986. Then, check out the even more amazing blooper reel from that commercial. The ‘80s were a wild time, indeed, and I really wish there was more footage of Kevin McHale freestyling.
And while you may never be as cool as rapping ‘80s basketball players, you can grab a little piece of that sweet rhyming action with the new Converse Weapon CX Sneakers. A reimagining of their mid-’80s predecessors, they feature the same Y-bar and foam collar design for excellent ankle support. And with an even more exaggerated exterior and leather tops, they’re a solid redesign that keeps the vintage cool intact while updating it for modern guys’ outfits.
