Marquis Mills Converse founded the Converse Rubber Company in Malden, Massachusetts, in 1908, making rubber galoshes before canvas shoes arrived in 1910. The All Star followed in 1917, and Nike has owned the brand since 2003. In India, Bhaane Group runs Converse retail and opened the first store in Mumbai in November 2024.
