HAVEN and Converse Share an Appreciation for Craftsmanship on the Chuck Taylor 70
With Herrill and Timberland fresh in our minds, HAVEN continues its 20th anniversary celebrations with Converse on the Chuck Taylor 70, combining a shared appreciation for craftsmanship and materiality.
The collaboration puts the Chuck Taylor 70 front and centre, amplifying its heritage status through a considered approach to utility, offering the shoe in two colourways: black and khaki. The shoes retaining its familiar porportions while introducing a tonal, tactike interplay between smooth cashmere suede and cobtrasting hairy suede. Alongside the usual lacing system, a lateral side zip adds functional ease without distrupting the understated design. In the end, a familiar footwear archetype is tweaked through subtle intervention, where traditional craftsmanship and utility exist in balance.
