Innovation and distortion have been throughlines of the ongoing Converse x DRKSHDW collaboration, and they come together again in the partnership’s latest offering—the Laceless TURBODRK Chuck 70. This update to the iconic silhouette features an elastic gore insert along the tongue that offers a snug, secure slip-on fit, giving consumers the option to ditch their laces.

First introduced in 2021, the TURBODRK Chuck 70 follows Rick Owens’ practice of confident contortion of cultural signifiers, which is reflected in his decision to bend and reshape Converse’s iconic canvas shoe. Now, Converse x DRKSHDW introduces Converse’s “Max Grind” process to the TURBODRK outsole for the first time. This process incorporates up to 40 percent reclaimed and reused rubber scraps from Converse’s footwear manufacturing process back into the outsole. A molded grind rubber toe cap and heel atop a Gum rubber outsole completes the design.

Should you buy a size down in Converse?

The Converse website recommends customers size down in their All Star and Chuck 70 silhouettes however we would still recommend staying true to size. Unless you have narrow feet, we don’t recommend sizing down in Converse.

For this collab, the American fashion designer and Converse have revamped the latter’s iconic ‘80s basketball high-top into the TURBOWPN. Of course, the Rick Owens DRKSHDW x Converse TURBOWPN is heavily injected with Owens’ design cues as seen in the exaggerated portions and distorted lines. The result is an elevated take on the basketball silhouette.

On the TURBODRK Chuck 70 Hi, zebra jacquard prints adorn sherpa fleece uppers, replacing the traditional choices of canvas as seen on the previous releases. Equipped with an elongated tongue and squared toe-cap that screams the name of Owens, a distorted aesthetic has been granted to the classic offering of Converse.

On the TURBOWPN, a classic take of black and milk leather panels outfits the spoken silhouette, reflecting an outlook that resembles his all-time signature Geobasket sneaker. Added with pentagon shaped cutouts on the sides, tonal laces completes a versatile look that matches well with any of his apparel offerings.

Last but not least, a range of accessories arrived in the form of Go Lo and Go 2 backpacks, finished in matching prints and materials as found on the TURBODRK Chuck 70 Hi.

Rick Owens and Converse are back with another collaboration as they’ll be releasing new Clay and Egret colorways of the TURBOWPN model, a reimagined version of the original Converse Weapon. The TURBOWPN represents what can happen when a true modernist minimalism and contemporary luxury design is brought to a performance icon. The near monochromatic takes on the silhouette arrive in an era when the link between sport and fashion is stronger than ever.

The TURBOWPN continues as a bombastic take on the Weapon, elevated through Owens’ minimalist yet maximalist footwear aesthetic -most notably distorting and exaggerating proportions. Conjugating the iconic outsole of the Weapon, the TURBOWPN sits on a revamped tread. The outsole nearly doubles in proportion to create a platform stance, while the interior of the silhouette hosts a CX foam drop-in for comfort. Crafted in premium cowhide leather, with a subtly reinforced toe box and wide lace, the TURBOWPN also continues design articulations from Owens and Converse’s prior collaborations –the TURBODRK and DRKSTAR –with an elongated tongue and with stitched detail.
