New Release: Converse St. Hounds Hi

October 12th, 2009 by sherylem Stored in: Converse

converse_hounds-tooth_hi-top

Based on Converse’s own Weapon silhouette, these new releases from Converse consist of two colorways. It features a hounds tooth print in the uppers and shiny accents that vary depending on the colorway you prefer.  All the elements in this collection have been well-thought and well-placed. The overall look have been unified by the black/white accents of each colorway. Clean and classic, this collection should have no difficulty becoming a hit. Although I think Converse is not handling gold colorway as good as other brands have, the silver/white colorway on the other hand is to die for.

This will be available soon at Converse retailers in Japan for about $125.
