A gem in the Skidgrip archives shaped for the streets of today – introducing the Converse x Fear of God Essentials Skidgrip collab. With bold, vibrant colours, the Skidgrip Con-Rad was a go-to for surfers and skaters in the late ‘80s.
This collaboration reworks the original, keeping the loud colours but evolving the design for a more modern look. While the maxed-out pattern on the canvas isn’t the minimalism you expect from Jerry Lorenzo (designer), the clean profile and sleek shape place this updated classic firmly in the Fear of God aesthetic.
Key features:
- High top sneaker
- Digitally printed archival pattern
- Silver tone brass eyelets
- Padded collar
- Primary oval lace, secondary cotton flat lace
- Woven label with screen printed co-branding on tongue
- Fear of God Essentials and Chuck 70 vintage license plates
- Ortholite sock liner
The Converse X Fear of God Essentials Skidgrip launches exclusively at Shelflife, Lemkus and Converse Sandton City and online at www.converse.co.za from Saturday, 29 August 2020.
Price: R1699.95.
