The latest project from iconic shoe label Converse is a Toy Story collaboration that offers a three-piece capsule surrounding beloved cartoon characters. The collaborative series reinvents three classic Converse silhouettes with details of the Pixar characters. The three reworked silhouettes include the Jack Purcells, the All Star 100 Highs and the All Star 100 Low shoes.
The brand's newest Toy Story collaboration incorporates the cartoon's details and characters into graphic prints and colorways. Colors from Buzz Lightyear's spacesuit form the colorway for the Jack Purcells -- with a white and green canvas, with purple- and red-accented details. The All Star 100 Lows take on a collage pattern with monochromatic sketches of characters such as Woody, Jessie, Mr. Potatohead, Ham, Alien and Slinky. The All Star 100 Highs also boast the collage style, but with a multi-colored prints.
