First previewed back in November of last year, jeffstaple lands his signature Pigeon colorway onto another platform. Teaming up with Converse, the famed New York-based designer works up a nice blend of materials amongst a well received gray backdrop and pink accenting on the Sea Star Hi model. Rumored to be an exclusive to Parisian boutique colette, they are now available in limited quantities via their online store.

    UBIQ PHILLY had them but they are “all gone.” I like the theme. I wanted the dunks but of course I could not get them. Then the New Balance ones came out and I could not get those. Now these converse boat shoes are already sold out before I even knew about them. I guess I need to step up my game if I want to cop a gray pair of shoes with a pigeon on them. This limited edition thing is way out of hand. I will give props to any person I see actually wearing them.

    ill start this comment by saying ive never been a fan of the pigeon SBs. A buddy of mine had em and ive never liked em. With that being said, this shoe is pretty dope. The laces are over done, yes, but when youre wearing jeans, most of em will be covered. Just enough will be left to complete the color way, the “pink” on gray is hot. The one thing i dont like about this shoe is the fact that when im rocking em out and i wanna pop the tongue a little bit, do i seriously need to have a fat pigeon sticking out? completely ruins the shoe.

    seriously…just get rid of those red laces on the side.
    unnecessary.
