The Converse Blog’s Friday Flashback: Wrestling
These wrestling shoes are from the eltra era, probably in the 70’s. The black/white colorway is as classic as it comes. Also they have an outsole in a nice soft gum.
Flashback Re-issued! As if seeing the original wasn’t enough, now take a peak at the re-issued model coming out soon. These have be updated into a casual shoe with an actual midsole this time. Change the highth and the chevron ad a dash of green and there you go. I’d say a pretty good re-issue. There is also a white/navy colorway below, it came from http://www.converse.be.
I am strating to get backed up with all of the pics I’ve found recently, I might have to start posting more often. Stay tuned to see what happens. Thanks for checking out the blog and tell everyone you see, no really.

I will be posting a pair of all leather, white converse wrestling shoes from the 1970’s that still have the tag on them on Ebay in the next week. We are auctioning them for a fundraiser.
