With Black History Month just around the corner, it seems the entire Swoosh umbrella is rapidly preparing for celebration. After revealing an expansive five-part pack of basketball PEs earlier Top, the imprint is now directing spotlight to not only its Nike offerings but also its accompanying Converse staples. Of the latter, both the Chuck 70 Converse Ctas Hi Midnight Navy White Black Pro Leather take steer with execution heavily distinct from one to the other. The cap toe offering is unequivocally the louder of the two, patchworking with colors of faded yellow, green, and blue in nod to heritage signatures; its second, however, prefers to play solely with olive shades, using it to further separate the materials of suede, canvas, and mesh that outfit the entire construction. “BHM” logos then embroider onto the tongue, translating over to even the CONVERSE Fall Winter 2012 Collection, though it opts for neutral embossing. Presentation-wise, it also lies a bit lower on the radar, with vibrant tones only lying on overlaid accents such as the swoosh, eye stay, and heel; and as the stitching pokes out from the check, the toe box distresses somewhat similarly, tearing away to reveal a metallic shell. Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Platform High Vapor Mauves, alternatively, keep things relatively clean with the layers maximally cascading downwards in a palette of loud pinks to deep orange.
Though release dates are still currently unannounced, expect to find the entire pack at Nike.com as well as select shops as we hit February.
