The Pro Leather Mid 'Black History Month' pays tribute to the yearly commemoration by featuring a blend of different materials on a classic 1970s design popularized by the legendary Julius 'Dr. J' Erving. With the exception of the purple laces and a Converse logo embellished metallic silver heel tab, the upper portion of the shoe is adorned entirely in different shades of green. These shades of green are skillfully applied to panels constructed from canvas, mesh, and hairy suede. Adding further significance, the tongue is embossed with BHM embroidery, serving as a final homage to this important historical occasion.
