By: Lauren N. Converse tennis shoes were a big hit in the 1970’s, but fell out of style in the 1980’s. In the early 1990’s, designers like Marc Jacobs started wearing them (his signature pair was a pair of beat up black converse). The grunge scene then picked them up and Converse came back in style.

Converse shoes became extremely popular in 2008, when girls would wear them with skinny jeans, creating the Emo Goth, and Scene styles. Most of the Emo and Scene stereotype would wear the brightly colored Converse from the 1980’s, along with the hair, makeup and clothing from that time.
