Following last week’s now-sold-out collaborative duffel bag, Converse and Telfar have returned with a second installment to their partnership featuring a range of apparel and, most notably, footwear, marking the latter brand’s latest step into the world of sneakers.
Opening the line, the Converse x Telfar Pro-Leather Slip-On deconstructs a court classic into a unisex ballet flat with a white sneaker sole, slicing through Converse’ signature star emblem while doing so. Building on that blueprint, the Pro-Leather Mary Jane model features the same low-profile cut atop a vintage tonal white colorway and nylon toe box, except this time employing a strap at the arch with dual iconography.
Rounding out the footwear offerings, the Converse x Telfar Slides, which arrive in black, navy and khaki, feature a Telfar Star logo-embossed strap that rests atop a rubber, pebble-textured base.
Elsewhere in the collection, the same star-and-logo motif plants itself on t-shirts, ringer tanks, shorts and a lightweight jersey hoodie with hidden side pockets, each of which play with the same white-grey-navy color scheme. The designs are straightforward, but as with all pieces adorned with “Telfar,” the apparel calls back to the brand’s “For Everyone” ideology. Take a look at the full range in the campaign imagery above.
The collection is now available to shop on both Converse and Telfar’s websites. Prices range from $60 USD to $140 USD.
