Editor’s Notes: Converse has your feet covered with the brand’s second GORE-TEX-treated drop. A selection of six Chuck 70s — three low-tops and three high-tops — are weatherproofed from heel to toe. Anyone who has been caught in a downpour in standard canvas Chucks will know what a godsend this is. The hardy kicks come in four colorways: black, white, yellow, and red.

Each pair is ready to face the elements thanks to its water-repellent construction with GORE-TEX lining and gusseted tongue. In addition, oversized GORE-TEX branding can be found in various locations on each colorway, from the laces and upper to the midsole.

This second GORE-TEX Chuck 70s pack is part of Converse’s holiday collection, which focuses on utility wear and outdoor adventures. Flip through the colorways above.
