GIVENCHY x CONVERSE Addict Chuck Taylor All Star Hi | Release Info

In his fascination over Gothic theme, Riccardo Tisci, the creative director of both men’s and women’s collection at fashion house GIVENCHY gave raise to the extraterrestrial chic found on many of the label’s most recent runway presentation.  But his extravagant creativity isn’t limited to the haute fashion, but in more conventional existences like the cover art to Jay-Z x Kanye West H.A.M. single and this Chuck Taylor All-Star as part of CONVERSE Addict line.  Primal and wild, a leopard skin pattern in tonal black treatment covered the canvas high-top with an outsole in matching colorway.  A thin white piping strikes across the midsole as if to draw your attention to the heel tab, where a row of blacken studs runs down the middle.  Like many of Tisci’s creations, a dynamic showing of both subtle and wild, the GIVENCHY x CONVERSE Addict Chuck Taylor All Star Hi will be available in the range of sizes US 5 to 11.5 at a price of JP ¥29,400, or US $347.  The collaboration is set to launch on Wednesday, April 27th, at GIVENCHY retail locations in Japan only. via
