Fans of 2-D, Murdoc, Noodle and Russel will be thrilled to hear that the gang will be making their way through fashion in the Gorillaz x Converse Sneakers.
The Gorillaz x Converse Sneakers are the latest collaboration that the latter is going into and it's definitely one I'm looking forward to. The brand has enlisted the help of the cartoon band's co-creator Jamie Hewlett to design a few new kicks for fans. The sneakers will be in the iconic Chuck Taylor style, which will feature the eye-popping artwork that Hewlett has brought to Gorillaz. The first model unveiled features the high-top in a green camo upper with detailed prints in the insole. There will also be a music collaboration to go with the launch of the sneakers.
