In the first drop of an ongoing collaboration with DRKSHDW, fashion designer Rick Owens rebels against the usual appearance of the Converse Chuck 70. With a punk mindset and modern minimalist aesthetic, he distorts the classic lines of the most iconic silhouette. Break from convention with the Converse TURBODRK Chuck 70 – it’s only the beginning for Converse x DRKSHDW.
Created by one of fashion’s essential iconoclasts Rick Owens. The subversive design both celebrates and distorts the lines of Converse’s best-ever silhouette —literally stretching the possibilities with an elongated tongue and applying the first square-toe execution in its century of existence. It’s the bold reinvention of a street classic.
