Converse And DRKSHDW Raise The Stakes With The New DBL DRKSTAR

Grounded by a partnership built on bold design and constant experimentation, Converse and DRKSHDW unite once again to launch the Converse x DRKSHDW DBL DRKSTAR Chuck 70 – an elevated take on the duo’s original silhouette featuring a double-stacked sole on a Chuck 70 inspired silhouette.

Through boundary-pushing design, Converse and DRKSHDW aim to liberate style from the confines of ubiquity by igniting alternative forms of creativity and expression. Reflecting Owens’ innate sensibility to play with and evolve form, the subversive design of the DBL DRKSTAR distorts proportions with an elongated tongue and raised platform, while celebrating iconic Chuck elements with the toe, heel and foxing tape. Clean lines and a neutral color palette maintain Owens’ minimalist and contemporary style for emphasis on the dramatic shape.
