JW Anderson x Converse Chuck 70 'Felt' Collection

Prolific British designer JW Anderson has cemented himself as one of the most eccentric collaborators of Converse’s expansive archive. The JW Anderson x Converse Chuck 70 “Felt” collection plays on the designer’s lifelong obsession with arts and crafts. He continues to explore colours and materials, as is ever-evident in this latest collab. Each iteration then boasts construction from felt, through matting, condensing, and pressing.





JW Anderson is a master of reimagining the classic Converse Chuck Taylor. Having embellished the timeless sneaker with everything from all-over branding to toy-inspired uppers in the past, Anderson’s meaningful touches nod to both his personal history and his rich well of design inspirations. His latest take on the Converse classic? A “Felt” pack, offering a look that’s simultaneously simplified and refined. The shoes offer a deconstructed look and feel — as the soft felt upper touches the foot directly — and arrive in colours both sophisticated and whimsical. A tonal Khaki Green pair provides a more elegant look, while two multi-colour iterations — a Fluorescent Orange and a combo of pink, blue, and green — offer a much more colourful and playful vibe. All of the colourways are finished with lasered-in details on the tongue and heel.
