The brand new Converse Tokyo Fall/Winter 2018 collection is showcased through a minimalistic lookbook. The range sees a fresh selection of wearables with a dialed-in focus on approachable and understated items elevated with Japanese elements. There are branding details found across coach jackets, t-shirts, belts, hoodies, and loosely fitted sweaters and coats. The main detail is the clean cut lines and infused textiles deemed appropriate for a multitude of weather circumstances.
A key piece in the new seasonal range is the earthy fishtail parka as it has streetwear elements with padding components for warmth during the season. There are also oversized flannel shirts and relaxed bottoms. The women's apparel is a little more bold, with some all-over printed design patterns, cardigans, fur outerwear, and blazers with no collars.
