For his design, Abloh applies his idea of “GHOSTING” to the Chuck 70, which employs a translucent upper to expose the details of the silhouette’s original 1970’s design.
The Converse x Virgil Abloh Chuck 70 will first release exclusively on Converse.com and at Off-White. Sign up at Converse.com to be notified of when the shoe will be available for purchase.
