According to the Van website, they have been making shoes since 1966. However, Marquis Mills Converse started his rubber sole shoe company in 1908 according to the Converse website.
around 1938
Converese were invented in America. To be specific, in Malden, Massachusets.
Chuck Taylor is credited as the inventor of the converse all-star shoe though it was created originally four years before he joined the company. Chuck Taylor did however improve the shoe greatly making it the shoe we love today. As a thank you, the Converse company decided to add TAylor's siggy to the ankle patch label surrounding the famous five-point star.
Marquis Converse was the woman who originally invented Converse sneakers. Converse was really her last name, so that is how that started. Chuck Taylor came in when everybody discovered how good he was at basketball, so Chuck earned the privilege to design one of the bestselling basketball shoes ever. Unfortunately, Converse sneakers went bankrupt in 2001, with lack of selling the sneakers, so Nike bought them out 2 years later (2003).

VANS! Converse are too big and look strange at the end of skinny jeans, especially if you have short legs. Vans are definitely the way to go.
