With her very first collaboration with Converse, Shaniqwa Jarvis pulled out all the stops as she naturally uses the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star CX to effectively honor her late father. As a photographer by trade, Jarvis uses her own expertise as a method of expression, opting to sublimate one of her own photos onto the silhouette’s entire construction. This double-exposed image, which was taken on a trip to Mexico, pays respect to her father as it reminds of his personal, eclectic style and his taste for loud, statement pieces. This “unexpected flare” he would typically display is imbued into nearly every accent — paneling, translucent tooling, secondary laces, dust bag, box — as well as the accompanying hoodie which bears the piece of art in entirety. Grab a look at her work here and expect to see a release at Converse.com on August 13th.
In other news, Ruohan Wang’s Air Max 90 was just revealed.
