Detroit-based creative agency The DISTINCT LIFE has taken on Converse‘s Chuck Taylor silhouette for a new limited-edition collection. The capsule features three new takes on the silhouette, with each colorway featuring the agency’s signature gold shade prominently.

Two of the sneakers feature a version of DISTINCT LIFE’s ghost camouflage pattern, with one coming in a tonal gold upper, while the other features an outlined iteration of the print. The third and final sneaker is more understated, coming in black suede with a gold heel stripe. All three of the colorways feature embroidery of the word “INSPIRE” down their heel. Each sneaker will be handmade to order, for more information head to the agency’s Instagram.

In related news, Converse’s chief marketing officer has reportedly joined Supreme.
