JW Anderson and Converse Adorn the Run Hike Across New Models
Designer JW Anderson works with Converse once again to adorn the duo's collaborative Run Hike across new sneaker silhouette. The rugged design is versatile and arrives in two new colorways of the Grid 70s -- the main influence behind these tonal updates are highlighted by the American flag.
The Grid 70s' new iterations sit atop a rugged sole unit, with one iteration plastered with "JW ANDERSON" branding in an all-over manner. The left foot is completed in a blue canvas adorned with white stars, whereas the right foot features red and white stripes, together making the visuals of the American flag. The other is predominantly black throughout the uppers and it features white contrasting stitches and a pull tab with the bulky EVA midsole and gum soles.
