Converse Just Released Converse Chuck 70 High Tops in 'Poppy Pink'
Katherine Pendrill — July 18, 2024 — Fashion
Poppy Prescott is the star villainess of the new 'Despicable Me 4' film and Converse is celebrating this pre-teen scoundrel with the debut of some custom Converse Chuck 70 high tops in a bright 'Poppy Pink' hue.
In the film, Poppy Prescott (who is voiced by actress Joey King) is a master villain who works with Gru to pull off her latest heist. Poppy is definitely a character who marches to the beat of her own drum, which is why the standout Converse Chuck 70 high tops are the perfect shoe for her. The new Poppy-inspired Chucks are finished in a Utility-nylon for durable wear and a black satin stripe running up the hell for a decorative touch. The bright Poppy Pink hue is also complemented by character-themed charms and black ‘Cat-fur’ laces.
