Converse x Isabel Marant, here are the Chuck 70 with a nostalgic wedge effect.
Converse x Isabel Marant, one of the most anticipated collaborations in the sneaker and fashion world, will be available starting in September. This is a release that draws from the boho world of the iconic French brand and the timeless silhouette of Converse to propose various Chuck 70 adapted to the cult designs of indie sleaze. Let's discover all the details of the Chuck 70 Hi x Isabel Marant, including release date and price.
Two icons catapulted in 2010
The perfect combination of Marant's cool Parisian aesthetic and the iconic American brand, known for its timeless Chuck Taylor All Star, has given rise to a collection that is doubly iconic. This collaboration celebrates Isabel Marant 's passion for the legendary Chuck Taylor and marks the debut of her brand in the world of Converse. The collection features two silhouettes: the brand new Chuck 70 Wedge and a reinterpretation of the classic Chuck 70. The available colorways are vanilla white and black.
The Chuck 70 Wedge has an internal platform.
One must go back to 2010 to appreciate the bold and chaotic aesthetic of these sneakers Converse x Isabel Marant. Celebrating Isabel Marant's heritage - see all the it girls with the Marant Beckett - the model Chuck 70 Hi Wedge features a 6.3 cm high internal platform that keeps these wedge shoes true to the aesthetic of the 2000s. The contrasting laces and frayed cotton along with the jacquard elevate the design of the classic Chuck 70, creating a unique model designed for the beginning of this autumn.
The Chuck 70 Hi is the version without a wedge.
For those less nostalgic about the wedge shoe era of 2010, Isabel Marant and Converse have designed a more understated model while retaining all the features of the collaboration. The Chuck 70 Hi, available in black on our website and in-store, maintain:
- Jacquard upper in frayed polyester and cotton
- Cotton band
- Red marble stripes
- Frayed cotton logo on the outer side
- Printed and embossed Patch Chuck
- Label with Isabel Marant brand

Effortless Luxury is the motto of the collabo
Effortless Luxury is the concept that guides the collaboration Converse x Isabel Marant, as the creative director herself emphasizes: "I built my brand in an open and genuine way, step by step, to maintain complete freedom in my work. Lhe idea of 'effortless luxury' is authentic to me, to my creations, and to their meaning. The word 'luxury' is used in too many ways, and it can become boring. It is much more difficult to achieve something simple and effortless, something you never tire of."

Details that make the difference
The collection is not limited to the presentation of the Converse with wedge, but also includes effortless models designed for everyday wear. Isabel Marant also reinterprets the classic high Chuck 70, infusing her creative DNA and her laid-back French style that has made fashion history. The details that will make you fall in love with these limited edition shoes are the frayed jacquard cotton and polyester upper, the Isabel Marant logo on a raw canvas overlay, the multicolored stripes and matching laces, and the translucent outsole.
A piece of history at your feet
During the initial discussions with the Converse team, the idea of reimagining a Converse wedge came naturally to the designer.
"As a child, around eight or nine years old, I would cut pieces of cork and put them in my sneakers - those shoes were actually a pair of Chuck Taylors," Marant recounts.
"My intention [many years later] was to have a sincere collaboration between the two companies - to create something desirable while maintaining a classic element. Something uncomplicated that stays true to the vibe of the original Chuck Taylors."
