MSRP: ¥25,300 JPY (approximately $162 USD)
Where to Buy: Dover Street Market
Since 2009, PLAY COMME des GARÇONS and Converse have been a dynamic duo in the world of footwear. Their iconic “Converse with the hearts” have become a staple in the sneaker community, known for their unique designs and collaborations. And now, after nearly two decades of partnership, they’re back with a new collection that is sure to make a statement.
For their latest collaboration, the two brands have taken things to the next level with a collection centered around extra-thick platform midsoles. Available in both low and high-top versions of the classic Chuck Taylor All-Star, these high-stacked styles come in two colorways: black with red accents and a red heart logo, or white with black accents and heart logos.
While the colorways may differ, the design accents remain consistent. Thin piping runs across the top and middle of the midsole, with a contrasting heel overlay and the signature Filip Pagowski-designed heart with eyes in the center of the midfoot. These details add a touch of playfulness to the otherwise classic silhouette.
If you’re looking to add these must-have sneakers to your spring and summer rotation, mark your calendars for April 13 when they will be released at select retailers, including Dover Street Market. The price is set at ¥25,300 JPY (approximately $162 USD), inclusive of tax. Don’t miss out on the latest “Converse with the hearts” collaboration – it’s sure to be a hit among sneaker enthusiasts.
