Converse x Carhartt WIP Chuck Taylor All Star ’70s

 

 Two icons come together this season, as Carhartt WIP and Converse combine for the first time ever to produce three new iterations of the classic Chuck Taylor All Star 70's silhouette. 

 Inspired by Carhartt's workwear roots with a nod to military aesthetic, the ever popular low top style has been updated with WIP's signature utilitarian fabrics - drill, canvas and ripstop, which have been applied to the upper of each respective colour way. Offered up in off-white, brown and tiger camo print, each pair features off-white lacing and subtle red detailing on the outsole.

The Converse & Carhartt WIP Chuck Taylor All Star '70s collab is dropping on the Carhartt WIP web store and Converse’s web store, as well as selected retailers including size? on June the 1st.

Aligning with Undefeated's signature aesthetic, the release draws inspiration from sports and military themes, applying a subtle off-white and a fatigue green to the soft brushed suede uppers. The shoe is finished with a tonal leather lining, five-strike branding de-bossed on to the tongue and the iconic blue and red piping on the midsole, which is completed with the classic red outsole , heel stamp and co-branded insole.

Final touches include a custom Stüssy graphic on the insole and the link logo also makes it in to the design underneath the translucent outsole.

The shoe maintains its newly added technical features, which inlcudes a comfort enhancing Nike Lunarlon sockliner, and a lightweight vulcanised rubber outsole provides extra traction for superior grip.
