Converse and DRKSHDW collaborate once more, launching the Converse x DRKSHDW DBL DRKSTAR Chuck 70. This revamped design showcases a double stacked sole, elevating the original silhouette with a Chuck 70 inspiration.
Their partnership thrives on bold design and ongoing experimentation. By pushing boundaries, they break free from conformity, sparking fresh creativity and self-expression. Rick Owens’ knack for reshaping and evolving form shines through in the DBL DRKSTAR’s subversive design. An elongated tongue and raised platform distort proportions while iconic Chuck elements like the toe, heel, and foxing tape are celebrated. The minimalist, contemporary style with clean lines and neutral hues highlights the striking shape.
Converse and DRKSHDW’s collective pursuit of innovation led to the incorporation of Converse’s “Max Grind” process. This forward-thinking technique reintegrates up to 40% of rubber scraps from Converse’s manufacturing process into the outsole, reducing waste.
The Rick Owens x Converse DRKSHDW DBL DRKSTAR Chuck 70 arrives in two colorways: “Black” and “Natural Ivory.” On September 8th, both versions will be available at Converse.com, RickOwens.eu, Rick Owens stores, and select retailers.
In summary, the collaboration between Converse and DRKSHDW results in the Converse x DRKSHDW DBL DRKSTAR Chuck 70. This innovative shoe merges design prowess with sustainability, offering a distorted yet iconic silhouette that challenges norms and sparks creativity. Don’t miss the release of the “Black” and “Natural Ivory” options on September 8th across various platforms and stores.
