The Converse x Collina Strada collaboration expands with a chapter destined to redefine the boundaries of contemporary streetwear. Officially unveiled on the runway during New York Fashion Week, this capsule collection combines the historic courtwear DNA of the Boston brand with the eco-conscious, radical, and maximalist approach of the New York label led by Hillary Taymour.

The beating heart of the drop explores the infinite potential of the legendary Chuck 70, designed for the female universe in four variants with strongly contrasting volumes divided into two distinct visual themes. On the dark, essential, and nocturnal side, the dark versions stand out, wrapped in a refined ton-sur-ton jacquard fabric upper with floral patterns: the sophisticated low-top Chuck 70 OX x Collina Strada in black and the monumental Chuck 70 XXHi, an extra-high knee boot featuring a functional rear zipper. In contrast, the collection’s more pop, bucolic, and deliberately chaotic soul is expressed through a checkered pattern inspired by picnic blankets, featured on the lively Chuck 70 OX 'Mellow Yellow' and the romantic Chuck 70 Hi 'Mellow Rose Fir Green.'

Fresh and rebellious energy is infused into the footwear through maximalist jewelry details, such as an extra-long deconstructed tongue with co-branded logo, removable charms, and custom star-shaped metal eyelets. Despite the radical style statements, each shoe remains firmly anchored to the sturdy vulcanized rubber sole with the unmistakable reinforced toe, ensuring the perfect balance between authentic heritage and avant-garde.
