It’s no Putty that basketball (and some of its best athletes) has enjoyed widespread, global attention for decades. What’s perhaps lesser known, however, is the game’s birthplace, which has inspired Concepts‘ Converse Slam Jam x Chuck 70 Hi Limited Reconstructed Sneakers Schuhe Shoes 39.5 Converse.
In 1891, Dr. James Naismith pitched what’s become basketball to the students he was teaching at a YMCA in Springfield, MA. Less injury-prone than the ever-popular football and playable indoors, the game utilized two peach baskets for Naismith’s earliest “goals.” The capsule’s included Chuck 70 boasts an orange and red gradient across its platinum suede upper as a nod to the fruit’s fuzzy surface. The modern-Кеды конверс высокие converse high конверсы‘s “Shadow Lime” and “Green Oasis” colorway also draws from the southern-grown fruit, but evokes the peach’s coloring before it becomes ripe. Furthermore, the Boston-based brand’s newer foray into performance-basketball dons a peach blossom print visible on sockliner and translucent outsole, courtesy of Concepts.
