First Look: Golf Wang x Converse Tri-Panel Chuck 70

Tyler, the Creator has become one of the largest influential figures in pop culture, many adoring fans looking to emulate the artist through his Golf Wang label and its many releases with Converse. After a small hiatus, it looks like said partnership is picking back up where it left, presenting a tri-panel Chuck 70 that bears all the aesthetic influences of the Flower Boy himself.

Branding, though typical minimal, is delivered loud along the lateral canvas — the typically blank panel now sporting a dark blue heart, yellow daisy, and a calligraphic 'GOLF' type to match. Its backdrop, which makes use of bright yellow in complement to the aforementioned floral, ends along its edge as the tongue, heel tab, and opposite side alternate for hits of red, white, and navy, respectively. Among the changes, Converse’s star patch is still intact just as the heel tab, though the latter does feature an entirely achromatic finish in match of the midsole and its near invisible foxing stripe.

The Golf Wang x Converse Tri-Panel Chuck 70 is available at selected retailers.

First Look: Converse x Brain Dead One Star

The sneaker features animal prints and polka dots for a design inspired by skate and street culture’s adoption of Converse products.

Using an asymmetrical yin and yang of black/white and white/black polka dot panels on the left and right sneaker, each shoe then also calls upon the aforementioned animal prints — zebra and cheetah — for even more wild detailing.

The Converse x Brain Dead One Star drops on Wednesday the 13th of February at selected retailers.
