Photographer and creative consultant Ray Polanco Jr. recently collaborated with Converse on a new Chuck Taylor edition called Puro Platano in honor of National Hispanic Heritage Month.

Hispanic Heritage Month began in 1968 as a week-long observance of the histories, cultures, and contributions of Americans whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. Ronald Reagan expanded the week to a 30-day period in 1988, and today we celebrate the greats like Cesar Chavez, Sonia Sotomayor, and Jennifer Lopez every year from September 15 to October 15.
