The latest Converse collaboration was just announced this morning, and it’s a big one. Drumroll please….Comme des Garçons' Rei Kawakubo has created PLAY for Converse, launching at the end of the month (click here to shop the Converse/Woolrich collaboration). The designer took a look back into the Converse archives, borrowing a Chuck Taylor silhouette from the ‘50s that was originally produced for the U.S. military. Here are the details: the four styles are available in black or white canvas, in high or low-top. Each pair features the Comme des Garçons PLAY heart emblazoned on the side. Bottom line: A chic sneaker by one of fashion’s most innovative minds for $100.
