Finding the happy medium between board-feel and impact-absorption, the Chuck Taylor One Star Puffed skate shoe arrives from Converse in a solid black suede construction with added OrthoLite cushioning in the sidewalls, tongue and collar to better protect the foot while riding. Continuing to offer the most stable footing with a deep tread pattern on the outsole, the padded, vulcanized sneaker employs a standard lace-up closure with metallic eyelets for a classic, secure fit.
