Converse All Stars

Hi,

I came across a really difficult point, so please help me:

One man is looking at the other one's shoes and saying

- Boy! What is it on your feet?
- Converse All Stars, vintage 1974

What does this mean?
CONVERSE ALL STARS?

Thanks.

This site sells great converse all stars, in new condition for £29. When I first bought my pair I was a bit worried that they'll scam me, but with 4 days they came in great condition. The site is http://www.freewebs.com/chucktaylors .
