    Vtg VERY RARE Tyer Fleetwood Tops 50s Sneakers Pre Chuck Taylor Converse. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
    These are extremely rare. So much so that you’re very unlikely to find another pair for sale. These are 100% authentic.
    Tyer Rubber Company patented the process of adding zinc oxide to the rubber which first gave it the white color. They began making rubber boots first, then sneakers. Converse Rubber Company saw this as competition in the 50s and went on to buy out Tyer. This was just before Chuck Taylor.
    These are lightly worn only by me before I knew what I had. These were dead stock when I bought them. Unfortunately, I wore them a handful of times. These are still structurally perfect and clean. Laces are original. Insoles are slightly dirty but perfect otherwise.
