Jovani Hernandez In mid-January, Converse teased a dozen collaborations with renowned figures in the fashion, music and sports worlds. Among them, Kim Jones top Converse x PatBo Channels Brazil With Embroidered Florals & Gold Converse All Star Disrupt CX High Black Ice Black Black Gunmetal duo with a project backed by the Boston-based brand. The British designer and North American company have recently unveiled their eight-piece collection, which includes four garments and two pairs of the iconic Chuck 70.
While the parka, crewneck sweatshirt, cargo pant and t-shirt produced by Jones are noteworthy in their own right, the capsule’s stars are the shoes. Informed by his observations of sportswear and streetwear, Jones subtly updated top Converse’s classic high-top silhouette with contemporary Blueprint elements. “Black” and “Egret”-reminiscent uppers sit atop sole units also dipped in the latter tone. Tooling, however, is extended higher across the 12-ounce canvas material featured up-top, and works in-tandem with both transparent TPU cages and speed lace eyelets to deliver reinforcement and stability. Underfoot, the outsole is reengineered with a new diamond grid to increase traction on urban landscapes. The England-native’s name is stamped onto the tongue and sock-liner in simple fashion.
