What Kobe, LeBron and Kevin Durant are to Nike Basketball in 2011, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Julius Erving were to Converse back in the 80s. The Hall of Fame trio were the faces of the Chevron brand and were responsible for several classic sneaker releases. One of the models endorsed by Doc, Larry and Magic was the Star Tech, a hoop shoe that dates back to 1984. Converse recently re-issued the uni-saddle Star Tech, which is currently available in three colorways at Converse.
