Upscale fashion collides head on with old school classics on this new collaborative footwear collection between Converse and Maison Martin Margiela. Adding a signature spin to the iconic Converse All Star and Jack Purcell models, this limited edition line ties-in the French fashion house’s obsession with white while adding a fresh coat of paint to the classic canvas kicks. By introducing an incognito layer to both styles, the sneakers feature a crisp white appearance at first glance, but naturally crack over time while shedding the outer coat of paint, thus revealing the original colors underneath after a little wear and tear.
Take a closer look at the Converse x Maison Martin Margiela Footwear Collection below, followed by a short video that shows both styles receiving a fresh coat of paint courtesy of the French fashion label. Watch for these to drop globally at Margiela stores, as well as select Converse First String retailers including Fred Segal, Barneys, Concepts Cambridge, Canvas Malibu, Just One Eye and Five Story NYC.
