Converse Nom De Guerre Skid Grip Cvo 1

The latest collaborative effort from Converse takes its teammate’s French name quite literally, especially when you see the accompanying video directed by Zach Gold. The Nom de Guerre for Converse Skid Grip CVO is as simple as it gets with a black rubberized canvas upper riding a white sole, but reveals some complexity as NdG (English: ‘War names’ or ‘names of war’) says the video “Explores these themes with a lens on group solidarity, tension, and ideas of fraternity and sublimating one’s identity to operate within a group.” The full video will hit Nom de Guerre’s website on August 2nd to coincide with their Fall/Winter 2010 collection dubbed ‘Countdown to Violence’, while the Skidgrips are set to drop on Friday, July 30th. via FRESHNESS
