Watch Now: Virgil Abloh x Converse Chuck Taylor 1970s Hi Closer Look

A closer look at Abloh's final Nike icon

The last of “The Ten”, Virgil Abloh’s hyped-up sneaker series is finally complete with the release of the Converse Chuck Taylor.

A game-changer for the all-American icon, the open-source nature of the upper is taken from the “GHOSTING” half of the original collection - an idea to reveal and unite the models’ 94-years of combined history via semi-revealing translucent materials.

On-foot and in motion, this UrlfreezeShops exclusive video demonstrates the sneaker's various stages of opacity.

The Converse x Virgil Abloh Chuck Taylor 1970s Hi is now available for registration on UrlfreezeShops Launches.

For those wishing to take part in our separate in-store raffles, registration will open at UrlfreezeShops Newcastle and UrlfreezeShops Glasgow at 9am on Wednesday 9th May and remain open until 5pm on Friday 11th of May. Winners of the in-store raffles will be notified on Saturday 12th May and will be able to purchase and collect their sneakers between Sunday 13th May and Monday 14th May. Any pairs not collected on the allocated collection dates will be redrawn and offered to another raffle entrant.
