After being thrust out of the archives and into the Glitter by Jerry Lorenzo’s FEAR OF GOD 12 months ago, the Converse Skidgrip has enjoyed a welcome return to the market in a happening of new options for the modern market. Now it’s time for designer John Elliott to reimagine the archival Converse style with a tactile rework in two ways.
Known for elevating street staples through unique textile approaches, the menswear designer replicates the 26.5cm imperfection of the aged patina with a meticulously flocked canvas. The two options features textured tones of green and brown in organic patterns across the upper, adding unexpected vibrance to the clean and timeless silhouette. Finished off with simple rope laces and an aged-look sole unit, the Converse One Star Pro Suede Ox converse all star hi black red.
