Vaquera is collaborating with Converse to reinterpret the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star, infusing it with the designer brand’s rebellious spirit and radically transforming the classic silhouette into the new XHi and XXX Hi models.

The design of the collaboration retains the fundamental characteristics of the All-Star silhouette, while introducing some significant compositional reinventions. For the XXXHi, the original waxed canvas upper is reimagined as voluminous, waxed collars that extend to knee-height. A Chelsea wedge insole further contributes to the silhouette’s provocative new stance. A shorter, calf-length version is also available, offering a less exaggerated look for greater styling versatility. Both versions feature top lacing and elastic webbing, complementing the baggy canvas for a versatile aesthetic.

Adhering to tradition, the collection offers two timeless color options: a black pair and a white pair, reflecting the enduring colorways that have defined the Converse catalog for generations.
