Converse KA-One gets technical overhaul

02/07/2012

Converse has launched a new, more technical, version of its KA-One Vulc shoe for the skateboarding sector.

Designed with the help of skate ambassador Kenny Anderson, the latest model features the brand’s Engineered for Destruction technology, abrasion resistant suede, a specially developed OrthoLite Sockliner and a traction rubber vulcanised sole.

Mr Anderson recently put these innovations to the test in a series of short films titled “KA-One Vulc: Engineered for Destruction”, involving hours of skate-related wear testing.
