PERFECT PICK: CONVERSE X JOHN VARVATOS SNAKESKIN ALL STARS

$145 FROM SSENSE

                From the SECOND I laid my eyes on these, I HAD to have them (and ended up buying them last week :D). I don't believe it's actual snake, but for the price its definitely worth it. In person it has phenomenal snake-print details and the rubber cap toe and sole has a worn look to give off the Varvatos look. The scales are etched on, so I'm sure as time progresses they'll slightly peel to give off a more snake feel. Perfect for ANY wardrobe, and for the price. They also have them here in a dark snakeskin.

CONVERSE X MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA COLLECTION

 

 

CONVERSE COLLABORATION X 2

   So, two new collaborations are on the way to atoners store near you. The first is the Chuck Taylor All Star San Francisco Moments collaboration (thats a lot of "title"). Detailing some of the most historic moments in the city of San Fran (the Gold Rush being on the bottom and the 1906 earthquake on the top), the collection evokes a very handmade, original feel, and I'm getting attached to the Gold Rush style already. The best part about this collaboration is 100% of the proceeds goes to Compass Family Services, helping underprivileged families in San Francisco. The collection drops Friday and is available on www.shoebizsf.com.
