The Converse x Marimekko Fall 2011 Collection Gives Colorful Vibrancy

— June 9, 2011 — Fashion
With these colors, you'd think that the Converse x Marimekko Fall 2011 Collection would be reserved for a Spring/Summer series, but surprisingly, both brands have implied these beautifully patterned footwear are reserved for the colder season.

The brands continue their successful collaboration and it's no surprise considering how impressive the Converse x Marimekko Fall 2011 Collection is. Whether it's the Chuck Taylors or the Jack Purcells models, all the sneakers are a mosaic of vibrant colors that are extremely pleasing to look at. From intricate patterns, floral designs to speckled designs, there's something here for everyone to enjoy. This also marks the comeback of Marimekko's most popular design the Unikko from Maija Isola in addition to the newer ones that are in the collection.

The sneakers are set to launch on June 23rd, 2011, so perhaps you don't have to rock these only in the fall after all.
