Custom-Friendly Duo-Layered Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Customizable Converse Grant Sizable Creative Freedom

— June 21, 2019 — Fashion
These customizable Converse are perhaps one of the bigger DIY projects that the global company offers. Expected to hit retail stores sometime in July, the shoes will be available for consumers to purchase at $75 USD.

Converse has made a name for itself through its timeless silhouettes — the Chuck Taylor All-Star is one of the most recognizable. The minimal aesthetics of the shoe effortlessly lends itself to heavy experimentation and as a result, the brand has one of the richest collaborative portfolios in the industry. In 2019, however, these customizable Converse take it to the next level.

Consumers can cut the double-layered canvas body of the shoe and tailor the height to their liking. In addition, the customizable Converse offer a friendly pop of color as well, which owners can choose to embrace or keep hidden.
