To celebrate the iconic DC Comics character, Batman, CONVERSE and Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, are launching two new Converse Chuck Taylor All Star ’70 DC Comics Batman Collection sneakers for Fall 2016 featuring artwork from the DC archives.
This year, DC Comics is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Frank Miller’s seminal comic series of “The Dark
Knight Returns.” Converse has created a premium Chuck Taylor All Star ’70 collection that uses a variety of
artwork from the Batman comic archives over the last 77 years. Key features of the sneaker include premium
leather with emboss detail, satin lining and iconic archive comics printed on a premium canvas upper. Each
style includes an embossed Batman logo on the tongue, a Chuck Taylor patch, a rubber glow-in-the-dark
collectible hang tag and an ice outsole with an archive print story underneath, with archive artwork on the sock
liner.
The Fall 2016 Converse Chuck Taylor All Star ’70 DC Comics Batman Collection will be available for
purchase starting October 1, 2016 at specialty retailers, Converse stores and Converse.com. The footwear will
retail for a suggested price of $115-125 USD.
