Converse

Each time Converse releases a new model or color, all our female readers are very excited to discover whether there is a silhouette made available for them. Unfortunately, most models are still made for guys but not this time with these two styles that took some public appearance. Amongst the latest release for the Converse ladies would the Chuck Taylor High that is made out of satin uppers in purple. It has a black rubber toe cap and some black eyelets.

This though creates a new drama with its heel lacing feature that allows it to extend to the rear. But its design is very conventional like the Chuck Taylor which sits on a white rubber sole that is vulcanized and comes with some black pinstripe. The other is a low top version that displays fully covered uppers with all the sequins to make it glitter a lot and adds a very feminine touch.

The classic Converse Chuck Taylor has always been a popular sneaker due to its uppers made out of canvas. Through the years, it has become a legend in the sneaker world especially when it comes to streetwear. It is also considered one of the most flexible footwear piece that embodies a very promising image that any trendsetter will not refuse to handle. It is also very ready all the time for any collaboration allowing designer to do whatever they want on its form as the base.

Today we shall have a look at the Converse Chuck Taylor Nylon Spec Low, Dark Slate Blue. This receives only minor modification of uppers made in nylon in dark slate blue colorway. It has same upper setup was implemented which includes the presence of white rubber toe cap, white vulcanized rubber sole, white coated metal eyelets and the sole has some black pinstripes right in the middle. It also has bright yellow inner lining.

Nothing can be as simple as this pair of Converse Pro Leather which was made and designed by Ruslan Karablin who is also known as SSUR. By starting this collaboration, Converse committed the Pro Leather to be the true subject of this make over. The changes were just minimal since the pair remains to be black and receives some gold treatment in the tongue label form that displays a shark tooth jewel. It also has a dead skull logo right on the rear. Each tip of the shoe lace is wrapped in gold and there seems to be a gold stopper.

The material used for the uppers are in simple black leather and the concept is very monochromatic. SSUR touched only some minor parts to be the main highlight of the shoe design. The sneaker in turn becomes very gorgeous with all the sparkling golden accents. If you love gold on black, then you better get this pair!

It all began with the bits and pieces of the dead stock clothing from the Navy and Army shops right around the country when the popular The Duffer of St. George was established in UK. The entire collection is made up of clothing in various styles and designs exuding the British heritage. To let the craft be known all the more by many, they partnered with Converse. With this, we shall take a closer look at the Converse Jack Purcell x The Duffer of St. George.

Both parties agreed to use the Jack Purcell classic model and used only black and white. Its design is seen on the sides and the rear panels with some paisley prints that pop out in various sizes and detail. The namesake of the Duffer can be seen on the heel and the tongue with the toe caps in white and sole in vulcanized rubber.

This shoe reminds me of Dippin’ Dots. You know, small yummy ice cream that doesn’t actually look like ice cream at first glance? Looks yummy right?

Although this is already the 20th century and the shoe era where most brands release models that are in black or silver, the retro-like facade will make you look cool (less the afro and the bell-bottom jeans).

Oh, I almost forgot. This kick is actually called as the Converse Weapon Hi Polka Dot. They made another Weapon Hi classic since the Weapon Evo that they released last month became a hit.

Online sneaker store called MITA already have this “smarties sneaker” up and available in their website already. Not sure though if the Converse Weapon Hi Polka Dot will become available in US and other parts of the world. But if you want to get hold of this eye-candy, better order it online now!

There are red threads that act as border on the tongue’s top serving as additional accent along with some metal eyelets in silver in midfoot.

It is on white upper canvas mixed with a sole that is vulcanized of the same white color. But the work of the artist is seen apparent all throughout the heel and side sections of the shoes. This creates a distinct look for the shoes. Letters of L-O-V-E are scattered all throughout the sections in red. It has royal blue hints that are also made visible in between the letters. It has silver laceholders, inner lining in red and laces that are in white. It has black linings as well all throughout the entire shoes.

This Chuck Taylor has interesting attributes that you would find cool. It has a similar zig zag pattern that can be found all throughout its uppers. Then it has a darker color scheme that the first pair mentioned. With its details, it would seem that black and off-white are paired up in the zig zag effect of the shoes.
