Matt Varga It’s already been a massive year for Billie Eilish. Just under six months after its release, her “Hit Me Hard and Soft” has already gone platinum and is a lock for heavy awards consideration. After squarely conquering the charts, Eilish has her eyes on the footwear world again. Fostering a healthy relationship with Nike, Inc. off the back of collaborations on silos from the Air Force 1 to the Jordan 15, the multi-hyphenate is shifting focus, announcing customizable Converse set to launch on October 17th.
The classic Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star and the elevated retooling of that shoe, the Chuck Taylor Lift Platform, are in focus here. Each panel and piece of hardware is customizable between shades of pure white, off-white and jet black. From there, you can adopt a litany of Billie Eilish-centric imagery.
A selection of lyrics from smash hits “Chihiro” and “Blue” are available for the midsole, a star pattern can be printed on the quarter, and her BLOHSH character highlights a crop of embroidery options. You finish your design by opting between flat and chunky laces, while the outsole across both silhouettes presents an icy blue with the album’s name over top.
Retail is set at $110 for the Billie Eilish Chuck Taylor Lift Platform, while the Chuck Taylor All-Star stands at $100. Though you won’t be able to check out until 10 AM EDT on October 17th, use the link here to pre-design your pair of platformed Chuck Taylors and this link to customize the OGs.
