Converse continues its experimentation with lightweight silhouettes as it welcomes the Straight Shooter for Summer 2011. Much like the previously shown model , this new silhouette features a Lunarlon foam drop-in, which is wrapped in a rubber midsole maintaining Converse’s telltale vulcanized look while still featuring new technology engineered for increased comfort and support. This initial offering boasts two duck canvas colorways (natural and black) and features nickel eyelets and a monochrome leather heel stay. Look for them now through Bows & Arrows, priced at $70 USD.
