Converse Japan has weatherized its All-Star 100 and Jack Purcell silhouettes with protective GORE-TEX in three colorways: “White,” “Black Monochrome” and “Beige.” This follows a “Sand Beige” iteration of the All-Star 100 seen back in March.

Leading the set is the “White” All-Star 100, emblazoned with a rich all-over print of “GORE-TEX” branding. The shoe comes with flat cream-colored laces and a vintage-esque All-Star logo at the heel. Other details like silver-toned eyelets, red and navy foxing round off the designs of the classic silhouette. The “Black Monochrome” is mostly tonal, with a black midsole, black uppers and zippers, while contrasting eyelets and an All-Star patch logo complete the colorway. Lastly, the Jack Purcell is set in a rich “Beige” palette, complemented by a crisp white midsole to finalize the shoe’s minimal design. All three colorways come with essential “REACT HD” cushioning technology for optimal comfort and support.

Converse Japan’s weatherized All-Star 100 and Jack Purcell GORE-TEX are currently available on the label’s website, ranging from $156 – $176 USD.
