Californian fashion brand [Midnight Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plumtox-by-le-prunier) works in collaboration with [Converse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adererror) on a unique iteration of the iconic Pro Leather sneaker silhouette. The update takes on an approach that explores the look of an 'inside-out' shoe design and the Converse Pro Leather features a blend of white, egret, and black as the color palette.

The construction features an exposed sizing and the information tab is openly showcased on the tongue along with additional reversed accents to add to the overall look. There are also some material markers that are found on the side by the rear quarter and a stamp on the mid-panel. The [entirely suede sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weapon-suede-ox-ne) features black stitching accents on the mid-panels as well, rounded out with branded lace locks and laces that reference both brands.
