Textural Collaborative Slip-Ons

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

GOLF le Fleur* and Converse Design the One Star Slip Pro

— January 28, 2025 — Fashion
GOLF le Fleur* works in collaboration with Converse to launch a new iteration of the One Star Slip Pro silhouette for the Spring season ahead. There are three colorways to join the series, each one is dubbed “Forest Elf,” “Forget Me Not,” and “Black Beauty.”

The three models are complete in a hairy suede material with simple tones, elevated by its textural look. The branding is kept minimal with a small touch at the cut-outheel star motif joined by the Converse Cons heel plate just underneath. Each pair also rests on top of a white midsole unit and continues with a rubber outsole, providing seamless traction for grip. The three colorways are green, light blue, and black.
