We've witness A-Cold-Wall* collaboration with the swoosh before and now they're bringing something new to the table with Converse. The collection includes two unique articulation of Converse sneakers; the Chuck Taylor All Star Lugged and ERX. There will also be two track suits apart of the collection.
“We see that this collection is indicative of a shift in where Samuel wants to go and his approach to objects,” says Converse Global Design Director for Footwear and Special Projects, Matt Sleep.
“One of my earliest memories of Converse is owning a pair of navy blue All Stars at age 14. I was traveling to the Caribbean a lot and took those shoes on numerous hikes and across mountain trails,” says Ross. “So, the experience of my childhood effected this idea of changing the All Star into something that is more hard-wearing. You have a mix of cultural experience overlaid with A-COLD-WALL*'s opinion on how footwear should operate.”
The Converse x A-COLD-WALL* collection releases September 14 at a-cold-wall.com, and September 17 at converse.com and select retailers.
