Converse works in collaboration with Hiroshi Fujiwara's FRGMT to launch the Converse by You collection that allows customers to add their own personal spin on the classic footwear. They will get the chance to choose between the low and high-cut silhouettes of the Chuck Taylor 70 beginning tomorrow.
Consumers will have one week to custom their own personal sneakers with the option of five different colors or a houndstooth print. The options include solid colors, mixed prints or shades, or for those who want to be bold, color blocking their ideas. Additionally, there is also the choice to add FRGMT's logo of the lightning bolt emblem, additional branding of Converse or FRGMT, pinstripes, and much more.
