Nike 6.0 is catching up to big brother Nike SB, but the vaunted Swoosh skate division had better look outside as well. Well, not exactly outside, as Converse and hence Converse Skateboarding is controlled by Nike. Perhaps that’s why this collection of releases for the spring season is so sastisfying.
Starting on the top-right and working clockwise, we have the Anthony Pappalardo pro model, followed by three pairs of CVO Lows. Pappalardo’s is somewhere between the One Star and CTS lowtop, whereas the CVOs look like an aggressive take on the Vans Authentic design. Also similar to an Off the Wall look, two Sea Stars round out this group. Solid stuff here, especially if you’ve had your fill of Swooshes. Cop any or all of these today at select Converse Skate retailers. via StyleWiz
