In today's fashion scene, collaborations are being made in a million different ways. Sometimes brands join forces with each other in ways that are unimaginable, while other times, combinations that make you gasp in surprise are just as exciting.
It is the latter kind that I will introduce here. They are an indispensable part of the street scene,UNION.and[CONVERSE SKATEBOARDING].These sneakers are a collaboration by
BREAKSTAR SK OX + / UN ¥13,000+TAX each
The owner of "Union LA", Chris Gibbs, is in charge of the design of this pair, which is a special order by "Union" for the "+ SERIES" real skater line. The base is the updated "BREAKSTAR" model of the "ALL STAR Ⅱ" and features the iconic chevron & star logo and taping throughout the upper.
On the back is the "UN/LA" label that symbolizes the collaboration.
Edged outsole for excellent grip.
Eyelets are arranged from silver to matte white.
REACT HD, a multi-layered insole that guarantees a comfortable fit.
Like the original, they are equipped with the REACT HD cup insole with excellent stability and resilience, and an inner hold system that supports powerful action. The skateboarding scene has been well thought out to create a pair with authentic specifications.
See also the image of the model wearing it. It goes perfectly with denim and chinos.
The finish is typical of "Union" and "Converse Skateboarding," who are well versed in skateboarding culture. The choice is between the steel-plated black and the tasteful yellow. It's really a tough choice.
