After the TURBODRK model which is remembered for its square tip, Rick Owens creates its successor, the DRKSTAR version.
In the DRKSTAR model, the tip of the shoe becomes rounded again, despite the fact that the silhouette and details remain oversized.
The DRKSTAR was released in two versions, high and low. The upper has been made of heavy cotton twill in two colors: white and black. The choice of shades turned out to be minimal as for the previous model.
The platform midsole is white with the classic lines of the original model ending in a black rectangle. The tongue, whose length far exceeds that of the sneaker, bears the converse logo followed by the capital DRKSTAR name.
For the third collaboration with the artist Rick Owens, Converse has also released accessories, in particular a cap in the black and pearl-colored version, combined with a functional black backpack. They are also minimalist in solid color with the Converse logo embossed.
The collection will be available from November 16th on the Converse official website.
