When it comes to iconic and legendary sneakers, there are few options as classic as the Converse Chuck Taylor. So named because of the similarly named basketball player also gifted with marketing experience, this particular sneaker would go on to garner international acclaim for centuries. While it’s a great sneaker, the traditional canvas and rubber option is not built for all-weather options. Unless you’re wearing the new limited edition collection between Converse and A-COLD-WALL*, the luxury British brand designed by Samuel Ross. The Virgil Abloh collaborator was influenced by Britain’s underground street culture and vivid landscapes, fusing the worlds of basketball, Brutalist architecture, and natural environments with fine tailoring and precise construction to create a rare and rugged iteration of the Converse All Star with all-weather materials like nylon, reflective zig-zag stitching and a thick rubber outsole so you can wear it literally everywhere. The Converse & A-COLD-WALL* Chuck Taylor All Star Lugged Boot drops on 10/8 at 10am EDT.
