Italian knitwear experts Missoni teamed up with Converse to release a series of co-branded knit sneakers.
Known for knits in bright colors and bold patterns, this sneaker remix seems to be the collaboration that best reflects Missoni as a brand. With a zig-zag knitted Chuck Taylor All Star II Hi Top in orange, yellow, purple and red and a Low Top model in a black, red and grey, these co-branded sneakers are a fun way to blend the two fashion staples. These co-branded knit sneakers are made for comfort as they are outfitted with Nike's Lunarlon cushioning.
The most recent Converse X Missoni collaboration will be available at select retailers on Friday June 9th.
