Converse × John Varvatos

Rock ‘n’ roll menswear label John Varvatos debuted its long-running and influential collaboration with global footwear giant Converse in 2001. John Varvatos Converse reimagine classic Converse designs such as the Chuck Taylor All Star and One Star Low in the New York-based brand’s signature edgy distressed look. Converse John Varvatos Chuck Taylors look perfectly worn straight out of the box. Angled zippers on both sides feature leather fringe pulls. Low-top Chuck Taylor x John Varvatos All Star come in a variety of distinct heritage-inspired compositions including white canvas, textured gray and dark navy denim. Other Converse Varvatos feature exposed stitching, leather uppers and updated Converse star and logo patchwork emblems. It’s not often when a designer sneaker collaboration changes fashion history forever. The Converse x John Varvatos collab is credited with releasing the first-ever laceless Converse Chuck Taylor slip-on. Meticulously crafted, long-lasting and comfortable Converse John Varvatos limited edition styles add a touch of music and fashion history to otherwise everyday ensembles. Meticulously crafted, hand-finished John Varvatos Converse shoes ushered in a long-standing partnership between the two brands. In 2006, Converse by John Varvatos marked Converse’s first ever ready-to-wear clothing collection.
