Joe Freshgoods kicked off the year with his “No Emotions are Emotions” New Balance 992 collaboration, and now he is set to launch a new project with Converse.
For this collaboration, the Chicago designer will be working on the Converse Chuck 70 and Pro Leather silhouettes.
Using t-shirt-like jersey material, Joe stitches together his history with a patchwork collage of designs from different eras on the Chuck 70. Vibrant tie dye, bold lettering and airbrushed graphics converge and showcase the eclectic style mix he’s brought to his work. It’s a story of his past—and a statement of how far he’s come.
He puts a ‘70s spin on the Pro Leather, carrying on the silhouette’s legacy of soulful style that started in 1976. On this JFG edition, disco vibes and smooth finesse come alive with a luxe combo of suede, velvet and embroidered floral details. Corduroy patches on the heel and a purple glitter outsole complete the funky throwback look.
