Converse, a champion of creativity and self-expression, is encouraging fans to Discover their Edge of Style, as it adds elevated new styles to the De Luxe collection and rolls out a series of high heat collabs with female designers and creatives.
This Summer, Converse advances style, fit, form and function with the addition of two new elevated styles that go beyond the expectations of the Chuck, mixing classic with Luxe. Joining the recently introduced and immediate fan favorite, the Chuck 70 De Luxe Heel, is the Chuck 70 De Luxe Wedge – which offers up to four inches of elevation – and the Chuck 70 De Luxe Squared.
Both styles transform the brand’s iconic rounded rubber toe cap into one with angular, squared proportions for an entirely new dimension and expression, while evoking the Chuck Taylor’s notable DNA up top – featuring stitch detailing, octangular Converse patch and classic colorways synonymous with the brand.
To launch the new ‘Edge of Style’ campaign, Converse becomes the catalyst for discovery enabling you to explore what it means to push beyond style limits. The new De Luxe collection launches alongside a series of global high heat collabs with female creative collaborators including Martine Ali, Feng Chen Wang and Isabel Marant. Each collaborator is known for charting new paths and redefining the status quo, and Converse has offered the iconic Chuck Taylor silhouette as inspiration, and a catalyst for creativity to define the future of fashion.
