Not long ago, Brain Dead and Converse teased an all-new collaboration centering upon the Chuck Taylor All ’70 silhouette. The LA cohorts executed a multi-pattern motif for the classic sneaker, boasting an eclectic mix of prints such as zebra stripes, duck camo, polka dots, alongside stars and stripes that reference the American flag. Topping off the design is a Brain Dead rubber patch on the lateral sides coupled with revamped off-white midsoles.

Ahead of the launch this October 26 at select retailers such as Sneakersnstuff, we offer an exclusive on-foot look at the collaborate Chuck ’70. Peep the photos above and let us know your thoughts on this iteration. Elsewhere in footwear, take a closer look at the Ronnie Fieg x Vasque Fall 2018 collaboration.
