Footwear brand Converse introduces a new tonal iteration of the iconic Star Player sneaker silhouette for the season entitled 'Lotus Pink.' As the name suggests, the sneaker is delivered with a slew of pink hues for the season done with textural fabrication for a vintage look on the retro model.
The sneaker boasts an asymmetrical look throughout with a spotlight at the upper. There is a patch logo split at the very top of the shoe separated by reconstructed paneling with one color at the lateral side of the shoe and a darker pink at the medial side of the model. Over the forefoot as thin rounded laces for adjustment detailed with brass eyelets and rounded out with white topstitching and the logo accent.
