My modern love is the new Converse All Star X-Hi. Can’t decide if the X-Hi Converse All Star is a brilliant 80′s redux, 90′s dressdown chic, or a mod 60′s play. But I like it. I love it.

Equally suited to either gender, the Converse All Star X-Hi has a 7.5 inch high ankle which can either be worn laced up or folded over. The Converse All Star logo shows up either way.

I especially adore the X-Hi’s tartan lining.

AllTheShoes will list who is selling the Converse All Star X-Hi for the best price online. I suggest, no I insist, that you pick up a pair of these Converse All Star X-Hi for yourself. Whether you are wielding a microphone or a bookbag, this is one cool shoe.
