With the Chuck 70 as its base, the Converse X Martine Ali Chuck 70 XXHi features an elongated upper that reaches the knee. The designer’s personal style is reflected in the seven straps and buckles that personalize the pair, reminiscent of the exaggerated accessories that defined fashion in the 2000s, in addition to allowing adjustments in the silhouette’s width and a zipper at the back guarantees easier putting on. .
True to Martine’s DNA, the creation has an impactful look, serving as a blank canvas waiting to be conceptualized. The sneaker is structured with a washed, monochromatic black denim upper, with the famous star patch on the side. The midsole and toecap remain consistent with the Chucks configuration. Additionally, five snap buttons and four zigzag stitching details represent the essence of the creative’s versatility, allowing for personalization through complementary chains or jewelry from her line.
