Some things don't change because they don't have to.
But who knew a 1917's basketball sneaker would eventually produce a high-fashion line of shoes and clothing?
Converse has joined high-end designers like Jovovich-Hawk and Isaac Mizrahi by collaborating with Target stores to offer a line of clothing and footwear for men, women, and children.
The One Star line mixes a classic Converse athletic look with vintage-inspired fabrics and silhouettes.
The result? Traditional athletic pieces that received one serious makeover for the 21st century.
Despite the absolute perfection of a simple pair on low-top Converse, this fem spin on this classic really does improve upon the look.
However, despite the change, Converse still maintains its classic, casual, and sporty feel without going towards frilly to get feminine.
Slam dunk.

Not your dad's Chuck Taylor: the One Star Skimmers ($29.99 at target.com).
