Converse has recreated their Vintage Converse Auckland Racer model and given it a completely updated look via: a new welded upper featuring reflective TPU and nylon mesh that is common in technical apparel pieces. Unfortunately these new Auckland Racer’s are a part of the Converse First String Collection, meaning they will be limited to a select number of retailers across the world. Three colors of the Converse Auckland Racer (First String) will be released this year. via: Sneaker Freaker
