UK-based sneaker retailer Offspring introduces its new collaboration with Converse in the form of the Flip pack. The pack features a Chuc 70 Low sneaker model and the Chuck 70 High. Respectively, the shoes arrive in a cream colorway with a suede material and a black colorway also informed by suede materials.
The perimeters of the shoe are stamped with branding details reading "Offspring Community HQ" on the sides. Notably, both of the shoes have a milky tonal midsole that boasts a semi-translucent finish. Additional details include the lightning bolt motif that was also seen in the previous iteration. This time around, the emblem is embroidered onto the shoe and can be seen on the vamp and laces.
