Elevate Your Spring 'Fits with the Converse Run Star Hike

Converse’s Run Star Hike caused quite a stir when it first dropped, namely because its design was heavily inspired by the brand’s own JW Anderson collab. After dropping via a joint project back in 2019, the model proved so popular that Converse brought it into its own line for years to come, and after four years the shoe has become something of a staple within its arsenal. Putting a different twist on the classic Chuck, the Run Star Hike is just as worthy of a spot in your rotation, and here’s why…

Think of the Run Star Hike as the All Star’s edgier cousin. Inspired by mash-up culture, this model takes all the best bits from Converse’s classic model, and gives them a bit of a boost. Underfoot the model is treated to a chunky platform sole, which comes studded with even chunkier treads - the forefoot in a gum finish, and the heel in black.

Finished with contrast stitching and classic Chuck branding on the medial side, the Run Star Hike is perfect for any sneaker fan that’s looking for something a little different, or even just an added height boost.
