A classic dresses its age

After a century of distinctive Converse kicks, it would be hard for the company's design team not to repeat a little. Instead, the brand has embraced the do-over by taking models from its archives and giving them touch-ups to celebrate its centennial. The work-boot-styled Camping Hi takes its cues from 2000's H-CL, but dresses up its predecessor with a new color, rubber toe detail, and Tims-inspired laces. Unfortunately, this birthday gift will cost you some serious airfare (or require a well-placed friend): The style will be Japan-only when it's released in October.
