Converse sneakers and iconic outdoor clothing company Woolrich are once again teaming up to create a new winterized shoe release featuring bold plaid patterns.
The new release sees several Converse shoe silhouettes receiving a woolen update for the cold winter months ahead. Everything from the original hi-top 'Chuck Taylor All Star' to a redesigned winter boot are set to receive plaid pattern makeovers that harken to a heritage of form and function offered from Woolrich designed outerwear.
The 2015 holiday collection also comes with a customizable twist for a truly personalized piece of footwear. For a limited time, Converse will be allowing customers to customize their own pair of shoes with a Woolrich pattern through its online 'Converse Blank Canvas' program.
