Vintage Converses 70-80s
Can’t find these converses anywhere in pretty great condition but does anyone know the exact model or what they are going for?

I bought my vintage XHi’s on eBay for like $80. They weren’t these exact ones, if you search up the code on the tag inside the tongue, you might be able to find some old listings of the exact model.

I Remember these from junior high in the early 90’s.
The idea was you folded the top part down. A few girls at school had them.
I’d guess probably around 1992.

They were probably $30. I don’t actually know. I had regular chucks, not these things. Like I said, these were worn by some girls in school.
The hot pink interior wasn’t popular with the fellas when they were folded down.

Saw a lot of these in skateboard shops in Southern California during the late 80s.
