Converse Teams Up With fragment design on Limited Edition Essentials
Earlier this year, Converse joined forces with Hiroshi Fujiwara's fragment design on a One Star '74 collaboration, and now the two have upped the ante further on their creative relationship with a new range of apparel staples.
Wardrobe lynchpins in the collection include a tee, crewneck, pullover and zip hoodie, pants, and a backpack, and just like the iconic Chuck Taylor baseball shoe, the items have been specifically designed to look better with age. Each piece utilizes fabrics which fade appropriately and are built for long-term wear, and also come equipped with a managed shrinkage fit that won't loosen or tighten with the lapse of time.
The limited-edition collection launches September 28 at Converse retail stores, select retailers and online via the official Converse website.
In other Converse/Fujiwara news, the pair has also been working closely on this very special Converse Jack Purcell Modern.
