In this latest collab, Owens elevates the DRKSTAR Chuck 70 with a double-stacked sole, elongated tongues, and a distinct speckled texture on the rubberized platforms, toe caps and foxing tape. Opting for a rounded toe as opposed to the square design that was seen in the previous capsule.<\/p>\n
The high example features a black canvas upper with white contrasting stitching while the low features a \u201cNatural Ivory\u201d canvas upper with stitching to match. Both pairs boast chromatic Converse All Star logos at their inward-facing exteriors. Other shared details include \u201cDBL DRKSTAR\u201d branding on the tongues and on one of the rubberized heel logos with the other reflecting traditional Converse branding.<\/p>\n
The DRKSTAR Chucks maintain its dramatically long tongue and bulky bumpers on the heel and toecap while sitting up high on its exaggerated sole. Backing off from 2021’s square-toed Chuck 70, the model also keeps its rounded toe, thankfully making the shoe more wearable but still dramatic nonetheless.<\/p>\n
Simply put, Owens himself says he “FRANKENSTEINED THE CLASSIC CHUCK TAYLOR.” His unorthodox design codes, including the DRKSHDW SS14 Ramones, fuse with Converse’s timeless model to bring life to a new creature \u2014 that is, the stitched-up cotton twill DRKSTAR Chuck 70s.<\/p>\n
Once again, a new baseball cap and backpack join the mix, flaunting co-branded details in Rick Owens’ typical, edgy faded black and cream colors.<\/p>\n
