Converse Japan has teamed up with the avant-gardist Japanese fashion label 'beautiful people' to launch an all-new version of its popular All-Star sneaker dubbed the 'All STAR 100 GORE-TEX CHUNK Z HI.'
For the new silhouette, 'beautiful people' has brought its penchant for high-quality textiles and advanced design techniques to transform the All-Star sneaker via the application of GORE-TEX fabric. As a result, the high-top model boasts a chunky, technical aesthetic that appears to be inspired by styles typical of high fashion design.
Much like the OG model, the new shoe features a black and white colorway with a rubber midsole and a thick ridged outsole. For those interested, the 'All STAR 100 GORE-TEX CHUNK Z HI' is now available to pre-order on beautiful people's website before officially launching on March 12.
