Converse Celebrates the Holiday Season With Two Chuck 70s
Presented in gingerbread man and reindeer-themed looks.
As Kendrick Lamar and David Free’s pgLang label launches its collaborative takes on the Converse Chuck 70 tomorrow, two new holiday-themed Chuck 70s have appeared.
First, a “Gingerbread Man” colorway of the Chuck 70 combines a festive forest green with hints of chocolate brown at the shoe’s upper. Equipped with ribbon laces in green, this special pair prominently displays a tree around the heel, with a gingerbread man plush figure sporting a Santa hat and Converse-branded bag at the left shoe’s lateral heel. On the right shoe’s lateral heel, this character is attached via Velcro. Golden stars rest at the heel of the collar while the medial’s All-Star patch has a gingerbread man hanging onto it.
Pivoting to the “Reindeer” pair, it favors an all-brown upper that is accented by a golden brown at the ribbon laces. A Velcro-backed reindeer is spotted at the lateral heel while the cut-out star found within the All-Star patch at the medial depicts the head of a reindeer.
At the time of writing, Converse has not revealed release details regarding these holiday-themed Chuck 70s. However, select retailers such as BSTN have launched the sneakers at a price of $105 USD.
