The new Carhartt WIP x Converse CONS capsule sneaker.
Two sneakers to celebrate the heritage of both brands in the world of skateboarding
March 23rd, 2022
For the SS22 season, Carhartt WIP has collaborated with Converse CONS to create two designs designed for the skate world that both have their roots in skateboarding. The images accompanying the collaboration were shot by various photographers in different cities, including London, Paris, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The collaboration consists of two silhouettes, the low-cut Onea Star Ox Pro and mid Fast Break Ox Pro, which combine fabrics such as suede, canvas and leather in their technical construction simulating the aesthetic of classic Carhartt WIP garments. Both styles feature a CONS traction rubber outsole and a CX foam insole, which offers enhanced cushioning. Additionally, the One Star Ox Pro design includes rubber toe detailing applied in a contrasting honey colorway. In both styles, branding has been kept to a minimum, with subtle details on the tongue, insole and lace eyelets, as well as an embossed iteration of the Carhartt logo on the heel.
