The Chuck Taylor All Star II isn’t the only update on the classic Chuck that’s hit shelves. Newly available from Converse is the brand’s Chuck Taylor All Star Alpha. Putting a modern spin on the old school high-top, the new design eschews canvas in favor of a premium leather upper, higher rubber side walls, a discreet heel pull tab, and a hidden ghillie lacing system. Debuting in clean black and white executions, the Chuck Taylor All Star Alpha can be found on Converse’s own web store now for $85 USD per pair.
