converse 80th All Star 91 Rick Owens and converse 80th working together would have been impossible to think. This is due most in shoes to the designer’s beloved Ramones 571376C, which is often likened to the Chuck Taylor. And prior to that, his Dunk — which was adorned at the side with a Swoosh-like shape — had earned only a cease-and-desist signed personally by Nike themselves.

If you’re familiar with its predecessor, then this latest capsule should offer only a few surprises. Design-wise, the duo is similar to the last, offering canvas uppers, elongated tongues, platform soles, and the like in both a high-top and low-top package. Their colorways, however, are flipped: the low is now clad in the more classic Black/White scheme, while the high contrasts in a near full-white make-up. Additionally, the cap toe Light the square mold, instead preferring a rounder, overproportioned shape.
