Union works in collaboration with Converse on a pair of the Chuck Taylor All Star Hi sneaker model in a captivating new design for the season. The duo adorns the familiar silhouette with a heritage tapestry illustration design to deliver a striking design overall.
The base foundation of the sneaker is a cream tonal base detailed with graphics that include roosters, or horses galloping around. There is also a special graphic of a man and woman standing right in front of an arch while dancing to music seemingly coming from a boom box. The branding detail can be seen in the form of the Converse All-Star badge found on the medial side of the collar area complete in white leather materials.
