Is there a reason that Converse sneakers with the name "Jackstar" exude individuality?

One of Converse’s most famous models is the “One Star,” with its striking, easy-to-recognize ★ mark. As a timeless classic model, it is a masterpiece loved beyond the ages. Did you know that there is an original model that became the prototype for such popular shoes synonymous with Converse, which have been repeatedly revived? That is the “Jackstar,” a masterpiece that is a favorite of experts. The legendary model, which was produced for only a short period of time, is now attracting attention again as a reissued model. In this issue, we will introduce the origins of the “Jackstar” and its recommended models!

The real name of the hidden masterpiece “Converse Jackstar” is ” STAR&BARS

First of all, I would like to tell you that the name of this model is ” STAR&BARS ” with a star on the side and two lines (bars). It is strange to introduce it as “Jackstar,” but many fans are familiar with that common name, and the name Jackstar is highly popular in the vintage market and among Converse maniacs. One of the main reasons for its popularity among enthusiasts is the fact that it was only produced for five years, from 1969 to 1973. In terms of rarity, this model is also legendary. In 1974, the two lines were eliminated and the design was changed to a simple one with only the ★ mark. The “One Star” model, which later became synonymous with Converse, was born, making it a legendary item in terms of its contribution to the brand.
