Sneaker culture is so wrapped up in hip-hop today that it’s never too surprising to see a brand work with an artist dominating the Bilboard charts. Whether that be the remnants from the early aughts sneaker boom or the holdover from Yeezy madness, it’s always a welcomed development when a brand deviates from the norm. Luckily we still have Converse to branch out and collaborate with some of the more iconic bands of past decades like their most recent pairing with Black Sabbath atop the ever-classic sneakers Converse hombre rosas talla 39.5. Converse & John Varvatos Collaborate On Coated-Leather Kicks Never Say Die! and Converse Run Star Hike Wheat, a third pair dons the ubiquitous grainy photo of Ozzy Osbourne front and center in concert holding up double peace signs. Be sure to check out more of this upcoming collaboration after the click and know that these pairs are available at select retailers today.
