- Today we are remaking converse from 1917. Or at least ATTEMPTING! We are remaking 1917 converse so we can use them as adventuring shoes since we are based around 1919-2020.
Kids and Teens alike using them for all kinds of things back in the 20s and so on.

Aye have you seen 1917
I’m that WWII person watching a WWI video...
Timothy's Time same I’m the Vietnam war person and the wwii person
Finally a man of culture.
I’m mainly about the Span-Am War to 2000s era
I'm also a WWII person, but my historical expertise centers around the Pacific theater.
Admiral Glenn cool. I’m focused on the Atlantic.
i would like to recommend the swedish m59 marchingboot to you it's an extreamly good and sturdy boot
@John Frederickson well, still doesn’t mean it cant be used. They had some stuff they bought from around that time period.
As a scout, I can testify, all stars are the best footwear for most of our activities, light to run and walk, flexible for climbing, (although a pair of wellies can suit you better in the mud)
10/10 would recommend getting one
I still have a old pair of converse shoes I got from my dad he had when he was like 9 or 10 now they are like 42 or 43 years old
I'm a Converse fanatic so seeing you make these is beyond cool. Great acknowledgement of the history as well.
Glad you like them!
Could you do a video on how you made these?
@@CountryTactical If you still have the design please share it.
I like converse with puttees and I have worn the same in the past but I prefer my m1943 buckle infantry boots as they offer more support, I like how they lace up like regular service shoes but has the leather cuff
I'm obsessed with WW1 and WW2 and your videos are outstanding. Keep up the magnificent work!!
Thank you!:))
My grandfather was born near the end of world War 2 he was in the US army until the late 60s like 1966 to 1968 he was born in 1942
@@calebcorenza685 does he have any stories?
I can’t wear converse or any “allstar” shoes. They give me blisters. Cowboy boots ‘n duck boots for me
You should try some Chuck 70s. They're much better quality and fit. Not the cheap materials and redesign that they did to make them more affordable. The Chuck 70 is exactly like they were made in the 1970's. Tighter fit and thicker soles and insoles included. Some of the most comfortable shoes i own. But the Converse you'd buy at a local store are uncomfortable. Order 70's from Converse website. You can customize as well if you want
Y’all really were moving like cats
Actually remake the opening of 1917 in your trenches
YES
Nice idea

I just learned that my great great grandpa was Italian and fought in ww1
Corbin looked like he hit his usb to hard that he ended up in the 4th dimension
I do some Viking re-enactment, so I always use leg wraps for that, but I never realized that leg wraps were used in ww1! Thanks for making such an interesting video!
Corbin is always like: "urgh, what I am doing here?"
For those of us who might like to recreate these, would you be willing to share your color palette?
I tried my best
Go to custom
choose the Chuck Taylor 70
Body (tahini tan canvas)
Tongue same as the body
Heel stripe (red bark canvas)
Lining (natural ivory)
Stitch (off white)
Lace (off white)
Eyelets (sliver)
Side wall and toe cap (gum dark honey)
The rubber is suppose to be black the laces and fabric is white, the star logo and the area you wrap the laces and put your name is orange.
@@idrinkbbs I was going off the video and I got the color right and if I didn't it doesn't match
@@greedman6791 I was telling you the original colors they dont have the original colors. back then that was the style thats why it looks wonk
@@idrinkbbs it looks far better than the original.
January 16 was the hundredth anniversary of the beginning of the prohibition
I recently took a trip to San Francisco over a week ago and wound up taking my converse with me. This video is what inspired me to wear putties with the sneakers. Of course it was for cosmetic reasons, but it was also for a practical purpose and that was because the pants that I was wearing during that time where extremely baggy, so, not only did this video help with that, and also made mobility a lot more easier.
Would recommend changing the laces.
Love Those Classics and Your Video. Awesome!
I want someone who looks at me like Corbin looks anywhere but the camera
I recommend rolling your puttees with the string on the inside, it just makes it faster good sir. Awesome videos as always
that shoes were a fire drip back then, you'll be automatically known as the cool kid back in 1917 if you wear pair of those
pretty cool video and shoes. I think you should have gone with the Chuck 70s converse though they are much better than the regular Chuck Taylors. They are $10 more expensive though. Maybe something to look over for your next build or new shoes. Overall I really enjoyed this video keep it up
Been looking for a pair of early shoes for my 1920s trekking, you guys have been a big help. Gonna get on the Converse site later. I've got some videos on my channel you guys might like. Thanks for making this one.
Keep doing what you do man :)
so glad you use an Opinel. amazing knives.
another sweet video! And now I gotta get me some vintage Converse shoes :) Hopefully you get the 1922 ones soon
This looks rad, I want me some 1917 converse now
Even in the 50s I looked at the shoes many kids used to wear and cringe. Some moms thought Converse and Radio Flyer were not proper shoes and bad for their children's feet, so they had to wear dress shoes as everyday shoes. I've heard that only about half of kids wore sneakers by the 50s. Many kids even wore these shoes around the house and sometimes even to play in. It wasn't till the 70s and mainly the 80s that sneakers became universal for kids. Only kids in some private schools didn't wear sneakers. No one over 13 wore sneakers to school unless they were playing sports until the 70s.
Hey i suggest doing an airsoft battle on the Battle of the Somme, its fought by the British, not the US but it still be cool
Also keep doing videos, they the best.
I am a fanboy of converse shoes I like that it is not to heavy and when I explore I'm the woods near my house I have to climb a bunch of high slopes so it's nice that my shoes aren't going to slip snd slide on dirt and rocks and me and my friends build a bunch of make shift shelters in the woods another think I also like about converse shoes is that they are comfortable on my foot with the canvas and the cushion I also like how the sole is thin so I feel like I'm still close to the ground I also like your videos alot and like how you did this video showing history and what we used to wear back in the day
him just laughing and then chucking the moccasin. I couldn't stop laughing
Corbin giving the camera the death stare the whole start of the video 😳lol thought it was funny
You CAN have Converse make a custom shoe with the bottom of the shoe black. You just need to customize a different style. The Chuck 70 has a black bottom, and you can customize it. A couple others do as well. You chose the modern design which uses cheaper materials.
Also, Why did you use red? The original Converse had NO RED the areas that appear reddish are actually brown. They've only discolored with age.
They actually had the 30s military limited edition one for a while, and you could've also used the 70 conserve to custom them
Beside the redwing iron ranger what vintage boot would you recommend for adventuring.
Those are really sweet , I asked a navy seal what water shoe he recommended for operating on the beach he said chuck taylors.
I remember my first pair, I was really sad cause the basketball coach didn’t let me wear them in the court but I wore the crap out of them
I wish I could have those. They look real nice!
3:00 dude in the background looks like he's been in the war
Saludos desde México, y no se mucho inglés pero tengo entendido que es..., como los primeros Converse que salieron en esa primera década fueron muy importantes, no solo para jugar básquetbol sino como calzado de grupos, como los Boy Scaut. Por acá no he visto mucho este diseño del primer Converse y aunque ya son más de 100 años que tiene, y ojalá estaría bien volver a verlos en México ya que rara vez he visto ese tipo. Gracias
My grandfather wore Converse as a basketball shoe in the 1930's . My dad wore them in the 1950's, I hated them and wore Cowboy boots or lace up " ankle biters" , tennis shoes never impressed me I hunt and ride horses too much.
Nice flip
A vlog of you hiking somewhere would be awesome
He needs some new socks too haha
They had good cameras like the ones now back then, damn
This is so cool! What color did u use for the body?
I would actually wear those while doing but never ending fighting in the Gulag with Dimitri at my side.
Depends on the type of boots.
Don't forget the Alden boots worn by Indiana Jones.
11:00
PARKOUR!!
Love you videos keep up the good work. Also did you ever restore the double bit axe I'd love to see it finished Plus I could probably give you some advice I like collecting Axe heads too
Like the series keep it up
I wonder if Converse made the early Jungle Boots for soldiers and Marines who fought in the Pacific during WWII? The jungle boot design from the Vietnam era is one of my favorite boots. I have worn them as issued to me in Panama as a young Paratrooper back then. I have destroyed 2 pairs when I was there along with another 3 pairs in Hawaii from road marching and in the field. They were designed to be worn by an infantryman and last for 2 months in the jungle. The Desert Storm style boots became one of favorites because of the suede leather and nylon tops and neoprene soles which last longer. Today I still wear my Bellville Army issued desert combat boots which I was issued for Iraq back in 2006. These are wonderful boots and have lasted this long after wearing them for 2 years in Iraq in combat. When I was a kid back in the 70s and early 80s I have always worn Converse basketball shoes high tops. I really loved them but I kept destroying them and replaced them every time after summer before school started.
Korbin looks like he's seen some stuff
Paint those awesome shoes? Paint? If you have to make the soles black then use a permanent black marker or black shoe polish or something like that. Converse deserves better then paint. :)
You know guys you You ought to have that one cam quality from Those old Movies I don't know what the name of that camera quality is, but it's when you watch an old western movie or an old slasher movie. You ought to have that kind of camera quality So it feels like you're watching an old adventure movie And crafts So when you're making your. old vintage war shoes and gas masks and guns. it feels like it's in that time .
Outstanding. Probably gonna copy this :D
Awesome
I love the bf1 music
13:08 the thumbnail for the teens are over
So, Arthur Morgan is now selling boots, huh?

In the old days you had to switch out the screen out on your computer after letters for stamped on it.
Is there a link to the design or a list of the colors you used?
It’s hard to find
Jose Colotl oh alright thanks

Aye as a proud native, don't diss the moccs
I have a feeling this will blowup
Those converse look dope
Causally wears mosin pouches
Well then. I would buy them. I was hoping to see some craftsmanship but hey. I'd still buy them.
Hah what a neat channel i keep coming around great channels today youtube is fixing their algorithms.
The rubber is suppose to be black the laces and fabric is white, the star logo and the area you wrap the laces and put your name is orange.
In which pages do we find this kind of articles? I mean, like the complete WWI German soldier uniform and the 1917 converses? I love your videos !!!
this would look better with a cream white lace
Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star my favorite shoes of all time I love my CONVERSE
What color did you use for the custom converse?
I use jungle boots light and nimble
as u can get with boots
Those look better then any Yeezy
I can’t find the same color. Is it off white
The Springfield yeezys
This is an ad for Converse
When I do it it doesn’t have an option for brown
Sooooooo
When are the roaring 20’s coming out ?
The rubber is suppose to be black and the area where it says converse and your name are suppose to be orange and the shoe is originally khanki
the sad thing is you can,t resole the converse shoe
Would you be making the black converse you said in the end of the video it’s reached over 2000 likes 12:45
I can see a new series “Vintage Parkour”
i would make the laces a lighter tan to mach.
Why were belts worn high and over the shirt back then?
I would've gone for the cowboy boot
These are Timeless 😂
Matching shoes fellas ?
😂😂😂
They don't ship custom to Canada :((
