[Converse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adererror) Japan returns with a new [Chuck Taylor silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chuck-taylor-1) in the form of the All Star Musenshoku as the second contribution to the eclab series. The design is approached in an eco-friendly manner and features a construction that blends together environmentally conscious textiles.

The eclab line is full of eco-friendly elements and the latest takes on a cream tonal finish, which is entirely organic. It is informed with undyed elements with canvas textiles paired with cotton stems and leaves that give the entire design its special texture. To produce the sneaker requires a limited amount of washes, cutting down the water consumption significantly. It also comes with an Ortholite Eco insole and [recycled rubber outsole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/refound-collection).
