Tyler, the Creator together again for Converse "Artist Series"
A new collection exclusively for Foot Locker
November 22nd, 2018
Converse is a hotbed of ideas and creativity. After launching the collection only yesterday in collaboration with Don C, back today with Artist Series, a special project exclusively for Foot Locker curated by Tyler, the Creator. The rapper, Jaden Smith's new boyfriend (?) has selected, catching up with his friends and surfing the net, two young people, who have accumulated talent and passion for sneakers, and has reinterpreted the iconic One Star and Chuck 70, giving life to a hyperchol capsule. The first name chosen is that Wyatt Navarro, who, for his parchment canvas shoe, was inspired by the street art culture of Los Angeles. The boy, a member of Tyler's crew, has made colorful doodles, drawings of cartoon faces, planets, chains and writings, made even more vibrant by orange and blue accents applied to the midsole. A different mood for the Scandinavian Øyvind Lauvdahl proposal. His One Star decorated with black and white illustrations fully reflects the melancholy of Norway in the dark winter months. Together, the two artists then worked on a rainbow Chuck 70 that combines their works of art in a captivating way and shows both their creative visions. The perfect compromise if you do not know which sneaker to buy.
The Converse Artist Series will be sold worldwide, exclusively by Foot Locker starting from Monday 26 November and each piece will have a price of € 100.
