The "FELT" collection of Converse and JW Anderson
The designer reveals another side of himself with this new Chuck 70
October 4th, 2018
The love between JW Anderson and Converse continues.
After upsetting the common perception of masculine and feminine with the glittery capsules GLITTER_GUTTER, after demonstrating his love for detail with the Chuck 70 XX Hi and making us come back children with the Toy line, the Belfast designer combines his forces once again with one of the biggest giants of sneakers for the launch of FELT.
The shoe has acquired this name because it makes premium felt its key element, a symbol of craftsmanship and refinement of materials. The collection also features a post-applied felt ribbon and a plate with lasered details. The first Chuck 70 is colored with bright nuances from deep green to pink, from blue to golden accents, for a unisex sports collection but never predictable.
It seems that the designer through his work with Converse wants to unveil what is his fashion personality at 360 degrees, a fashion that goes beyond draping, romantic cuts, beige and fringes of the SS19, but that dares and has fun with colors, different materials and some details outside the lines.
The second part of the FELT capsule includes a military green, orange and gray version of the sneaker, a little more JW Anderson, a little more Fall 2018.
Converse X JW Anderson "FELT" will be available online and in stores from October 11 at a cost of $ 130.
