Converse reserves the word electric for its most saturated shades, and Electric Aqua earns it: a vivid blue-green with enough green in it to glow under daylight, which makes it one of the louder low-tops the brand has put out. White rubber at the toe cap, sidewall and outsole is doing the balancing work, keeping the colour readable rather than overwhelming.
Bright canvas has a practical catch. Saturated dyes on cotton fade faster in strong sun than muted ones do, so a colour like this one ages visibly, which some wearers want and others do not. The build is the everyday All Star Ox, with the vulcanised rubber sidewall bonded to the canvas by heat rather than cemented on as a separate unit. Our records place it in July 2021 at $55.
