Converse Run Star Hike

Converse Run Star Hike Collection: Built to Break Patterns

The Converse Run Star Hike doesn’t walk in anyone else’s footsteps—it makes its own. First revealed as a bold concept at London Fashion Week in 2019 through a JW Anderson collaboration, the Run Star Hike took Converse DNA and flipped it on a chunky, high-traction platform. What started as a limited-edition design experiment turned into a full-blown statement sneaker—now one of Converse’s most recognizable modern silhouettes.

The upper still nods to the Chuck Taylor All Star: classic canvas, rubber toe cap, star-centered ankle patch. But down low, it’s all evolution. The jagged two-tone outsole adds lift, grip, and graphic edge, while the molded midsole and OrthoLite cushioning keep things light and wearable. It’s a sneaker that plays with contrast—archival meets futuristic, utility meets style—and somehow makes it all feel effortless.

FAQs

Does the Run Star Hike run true to size?
They generally fit true to size. If you're between sizes or prefer a roomier feel, go up a half size—especially in the platform versions.

Are Run Star Hike sneakers heavy?
Not at all. Despite the bold platform and chunky outsole, they’re surprisingly lightweight thanks to the molded midsole and OrthoLite foam.

How do I clean them?
Spot clean with a soft brush or cloth and mild soap. Focus on the canvas and rubber toe cap. Let them air dry—no heat, no machines.

What's the difference between the Run Star Hike and the Run Star Legacy CX?
Run Star Hike keeps the Chuck-like canvas upper and sharp lugged sole. Run Star Legacy CX adds more sculptural detailing, CX foam, and futuristic lines. Same energy, different build.

Is the Run Star Hike available in a low-top version?
Yes—the converse run star hike low keeps the bold sole and trims the height. Still a standout, just more streamlined.
