Converse Rubber Shoe Company was established in 1908 by Marquis Mills Converse in Malden, Massachusetts. The Converse All-Star basketball shoe was introduced in 1917. The decline came in the 1970s with the emergence of the new competitors like Puma and Adidas, then Nike and Reebok. In 2003, the company was sold to Nike for $305 milion. This particular Converse label is from a pair of 1960s sneakers.
