Find out when and where you can shop the futuristic collaboration between Converse and AMBUSH.
Japanese label AMBUSH is collaborating with Converse for the very first time. Previously, the fashion label has worked with Nike on a collection and we were obsessed. Now, AMBUSH is taking the sneaker route and we love the new designs. Arriving in two different shoe styles, the capsule has a futuristic and totally utilitarian vibe.
Release date: 23 October.
Where to shop: Converse online and selected stockists. We love to shop Converse from Platypus Shoes, Hype DC and THE ICONIC.
What's included in the Converse x AMBUSH collection? The Pro Leather and Chuck 70 have been re-worked into some seriously cool sneaker designs. The Chuck 70 features white rubber layering (giving you some extra height) and also sporting bold AMBUSH branding on the heel. It's the sleek and stylish pair of the two, especially when compared to the dark tones of the Pro Leather.
This pair of kicks is unique, incorporating a black rubber upper with black laces. But there's a pop of colour, thanks to the yellow AMBUSH branding on the heel, making a serious statement in your sneaker rotation.
Yoon Ahn, the founder of AMBUSH, draws inspiration from the Converse archive, specifically an Extreme Cold Weather Boot first developed way back in the 1950s. Each of the upgrades arrive in a military yet futuristic vibe, and while it plays on the usual AMBUSH look, it's definitely something different for the Converse brand.
