Feng Chen Wang and Converse Announce Another 2-In-1 Chuck 70 Collaboration
Coming in two monochrome colorways.
Now in their fifth year of partnership, Feng Chen Wang and Converse continue to explore and expand on their collaborative projects. The latest offering from the two brands sees the 2-in-1 Chuck 70 silhouette in two new monochrome colorways.
Earlier in the year, Feng Chen Wang already announced two collaborative 2-in-1 Chuck 70 Converse low-tops in a distressed and gradient look. The inspiration derives from “My Half,” Wang’s SS19 collection, where the London-based designer introduced the concept of creating a new silhouette by joining two existing halves together.
Boasting a much more clean-cut look, the new shoes are differentiated with a Feng Chen Wang-imprinted velcro strap over the laces. The uppers feature cut-outs, allowing its mesh layer underneath to peek through. The double-layered rubber outsoles complete the shoes with a deconstructed touch that’s synonymous with Wang’s design language and ethos.
The “Egret” colorway is presented in a two-tone look with accents of black as expressed through the quarters, tongue and heel counter areas. Meanwhile, the “Black” variant comes in a tonal look with subtle textural contrasts.
The new 2-in-1 Chuck 70 shoes will be available officially available to shop via Converse starting May 7.
