Converse
Bear Grylls//Digital Spy Converse has taken the All Star and given it a waterproof makeover for autumn. It features a Nike Lunarlon sole and Counter Climate Shield Canvas (sounds impressive, doesn't it?) to keep your feet warm, dry and stylish.
Converse Pro Shield Canvas, £65, converse.com
Golden Goose
Bear Grylls//Digital Spy An exclusive to Mr Porter, these classic tennis shoes with an on-trend chunky sole from Golden Goose are made out of untreated leather, allowing them to age and crease naturally, which is a good thing. Definitely a good thing.

New Balance

Reebok x Faces and Laces
Bear Grylls//Digital Spy In collaboration with Moscow-based Faces & Laces, Reebok has taken the Club C and given it a black and high-vis revamp, while the pebble-dashed midsole represents the ongoing construction work in Moscow, apparently.
