SOTW #30

Originally released in 1995, the Converse Voltage featured a silhouette almost unlike anything else at the time. 2019 marks its first-ever return in an exclusive form for women, renamed the VLTG. The pair is largely a detail-by-detail recreation with new additions by way of exaggerated heel arches, smart cushioning and herringbone outsoles. The general aesthetic, though, remains the same with slight deviations. The once-enlarged star applique has been replaced by a much smaller heritage logo at the heel. But the brand’s stamp is stitched on the top part of the tongue, with smaller stars sitting across the middle of the lace unit, as they did in the past. Shop the Converse VLTG here.
