Have you ever noticed that many kickass film and TV characters wear a specific signature shoe?
From cult classics like 'The Breakfast Club' and 'Back to the Future' to more recent hits like 'Stranger Things' and 'Black Mirror', the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star has played a key role in bringing some of the most memorable characters of all time to life.
To explore this trend in media, Converse has launched a new series called 'Forever Chuck' that will revolve around one question: why do iconic characters wear Chucks?
Check out the first episode below, hosted by actress Millie Bobby Brown (best known for her role as Eleven on the popular Netflix series 'Stranger Things').
In this installment, she meets top Hollywood stylist Stephanie Collie and together they explore why the coolest characters in film wear Chucks and what Chucks say about those characters.
More episodes will be coming soon so keep an eye out on Converse Malaysia's website and Facebook page.
