Back in September the Converse collaboration with Amsterdam based shop Patta and Dutch music group Le Le released in Europe. This week the pack, which includes the Converse Pro Leather Hi and Chuck Taylor High have begun to release across North America. In San Francisco, you can find them at Huf.
Yesterday, we posted the Converse Pro Leather Hi created with Amsterdam based Patta and Le Le, which are now available.
Today we have a look at the second sneaker from the Converse x Patta x Le Le pack, the Converse Chuck Taylor High. The sneaker features a grey quilted suede upper resting on a vintage 1960's sole.
You can find the sneakers now in Paris at Colette.
In Spring we got our first look at the Converse collaboration with American outdoor clothing brand Woolrich.
Two of the sneakers from the collection have now released. The Converse Chuck Taylor High comes in a flannel construction in two colorways, one in blue / black and the other in red / black. The two sneakers are now available in Paris at Colette.
The globally influential Amsterdam based sneaker shop Patta is turning five this year. The shop has marked the occasion with previous collaborative releases. As the month is nearing an end Patta has announced a project with Converse and Dutch band Le Le.
The collaboration has produced a letterman jacket and two sneakers. The Converse Pro Leather 76 comes dark burgundy and hints of grey accents in a corduroy construction.
The second pair from the collection is the Converse Chuck Taylor High. The sneaker is not your ordinary pair of chucks in a sole that is vintage 1960's. The upper comes in quilted grey suede with dark burgundy accents.
The collection is set to release on the 5th of September at Patta and will then later release around the globe at select shops.
As part of their August 2009 collection Converse Japan has released two Chuck Taylor All Star Highs styled in tartan. One of the Chucks comes in red wool tartan with brown leather detailing. The other pair comes in dark green wool tartan with black tartan. Both sneakers are available in Japan for about $106.
