Converse Taps Sage Elsesser for the 'Fastbreak Pro' Silhouette
Sage Elsesser and Converse are collaborating on the new 'Fastbreak Pro' silhouette that embodies Elsesser's past and present as a skateboarding icon. The silhouette comes with white leather overlays that are contrasted by dirtied off-white counteracts, dark blue accents on the Converse logos, and references to Elsesser's musical past on the ankles. A flower emblem decorates the rears of the shoes, while the off-white shade returns to finish the toe boxes and medials.
The off-white color decorates the lacing system and heel counters, while the rest of the shoe rests on a CONS traction rubber outsole for additional grip when exploring the outdoors. The Sage Elsesser x Converse 'Fastbreak Pro' launches on September 2 via Converse and select retailers for approximately $110 USD.
