Converse and COMME des GARÇONS continue to work in collaboration as the duo adds more silhouette options when it comes to footwear -- this time, spotlighting the signature One Star sneaker model. It is seen adorned with graphic details such as the CdG Play heart emblem, which was originally designed by Filip Pągowski.
It has big eyes and a red body -- the shoe is also paired with red stars to really elevate the overall look. It comes in the colorway options of black or white as the base founation. The same stitching details are seen on these shoes as well for a touch of contrast along with black foxing and a reinforced rubber toe cap that the original silhouette seen in 1974.
