Baltimore-based band Turnstile is teaming up with Converse, channelling their passion for skateboarding into a two-sneaker capsule featuring a Converse Chuck 70 and One Star Pro.
The silhouettes channel Turnstile's raw energy and distinct aesthetic, touting custom details inspired by their album and tour art. The 'BLACKOUT' Chuck 70 touts a monotone black upper with graphics that take cues from the band's album Glow On. The canvas upper is paired with translucent details, a custom licence plate, prints on the outsole and sockliner, and a reflective design floating orb graphic.
The leather 'ONLY ONE STAR' One Star Pro features a multi-star logo on the quarter panel. The design epitomises the crossover between hardcore punk and skateboarding, with details also inspired by the band's album artwork. The silhouette features bold, co-branded details on the tongue and licence plate, a CX foam liner for enhanced comfort, a CONS traction outsole and elasticated tongue gussets that help create a locked-down fit. The foxing tape is also embossed with the lyrics "Can't Be The Only One".
The Converse x Turnstile collection will be released globally on 25 January at converse.com and selected retailers.
