Japanese imprints UNDERCOVER and WTAPS work in collaboration with Converse to continue growing the ONE ON ONE collection. This time, the three-way collection updated a range of classic Converse silhouettes designed with premium quality.
The special edition of the Chuck Taylor High features a construction of eight eyelet cotton canvas throughout the upper and boasts classic white at the Converse sole unit. All of this rests on top of a black Vibram outsole unit with collaborative details in the form of the diagonal zipper on the lateral side of the shoe. This rests right next to the 'UNDERCOVER x WTAPS x "ONE ON ONE" collection branding detailed in white for a pop of contrast against the black base.
