Just mentioning Hawaii typically conjures images of pristine beaches, hula girls and just an all-around good time, but the fiftieth state was originally annexed due in large part to its military strategic value. One of the island state’s best known boutiques reminded us of that power with a tiger camo Chuck Taylor last year, and since it worked so well in olive, they’re back again for 2012 with a black-based edition. This new Kicks/HI x Converse First String CT Hi features the store’s signature orange on the outsole of an otherwise monochromatic canvas build, and you can see more below before grabbing from their flagship, the Guam location or at St. Alfred in Chi-town this Saturday, November 10th .
