    THE AUCKLAND RACER by Converse

    When I visited the Converse offices in New York a couple months ago I had the chance to play around with these Auckland Racer’s and I have to say that they are pretty amazing.

    These are part of the Converse First String releases. This is a collection of very special, hand-picked silhouettes mined from the Converse archives.

    Auckland Racer

    Originally designed for running in the 1970s, the Auckland Racer carries a lineage associated with pioneers of the early years of the jogging movement. Today, it’s just a clean, simple silhouette using materials like reflective TPU and nylon mesh, often found in sport apparel from the ‘70s and ‘80s, but repurposed in a sleek, modern manner. The Converse First String Standards Auckland Racer shoes will be available this week and will come in low-top grey, black and enamel blue.

    The Auckland Racer will retail for $80.00 and will be available in sizes 8 – 13
