We’ve seen Converse push out a superfluity of compelling collaborations in 2021 thus far including that of a new Chuck 70 Hi with Tyler, The Creator’s GOLF WANG imprint and a striking Rick Owens DRKSHDW x Converse TURBODRK Chuck 70 Ox. And now to ring in the Fall/Winter time — where the weather tends to get slightly more inclement — the One Star brand is linking up with F/CE. for a QAK CP GORE-TEX Hi boot that’s fit for the seasonal transition.

The high-cut silhouette boats heavy technical design sensibilities and is reinforced with GORE-TEX uppers to keep your soles cozy and dry in wetter conditions. Various shades of alternate among its base layer paneling, the darkest area begin the collars while the lightest sections are found on the quarters. The latter is punched out with a Converse logo and abstractly-shaped holes. Out back, there’s a cage that holds the top of the laces in place and features a debossed “Converse Camping Supply” spell out. Charcoal tabs are present down the throat and the heels, the latter of which hosts a black “GORE-TEX” tab. Hiker-inspired sole units are packed with EVA foam and doused with a medium gray paint job.

Be on the lookout for these to hit select Converse retailers in September ¥24,200 (approx. $222 USD).
