Chances are, if you’re a fan of the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star, you’ve invested in multiple pairs of the classic silhouette. Just slip them on and you’ll quickly understand why the iconic sneaker dominates pavement. They’re comfortable, dependable, and go with almost any outfit. Chucks are the definition of timeless, which makes sense too, given that they date back all the way to the 1920s.
A staple for both hypebeasts and preppy people alike, the All-Star has remained relatively unchanged since its initial design, but one particular variation has risen to new heights: the Converse collaboration with COMME des GARCONS Play. For a while, the clean and minimalist joint was only available in limited quantity. Now, the heart-adorned shoe is available on a wider scale.
Starting today, the CDG Chucks will be ready to cop through Converse’s online store. The shoes come in a 70’s-inspired colourway and feature Filip Pagowski’s unmistakable heart logo throughout the midsole. You can grab them now for around $170 Canadian, along with other slick low-cut versions. If you happen to be a Nike+ member, shipping fees will be waived from your order.
