Converse has been going all-in for its latest sneaker collaborations. The sneaker company went goth with Rick Owens for its Weapon revamp and paired up with A-Cold-Wall* to bring a futuristic take to the laceless shoe. Its latest partnership, however, gives maximalism a break, as Converse teams up with Kendrick Lamar and his pgLang record label.
Titled “pgLang for Converse,” the collection takes on two classic Converse silhouettes, the Chuck 70 and the Pro Leather. Each is a breath of fresh air, understated and elegant, and opts for a clean, minimal approach that aligns with visuals about finding connections in lonely LA.
