3/15 11am Release: Converse 1HUND(RED) Chuck Taylor by Dr. Romanelli

    
Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Hi x Dr Romanelli 1HUND(RED) ($100)

This Saturday, March 15 at 11am, we will be releasing Dr. Romanelli's (aka DRx) Converse Chuck Taylor Hi, produced for the (RED) campaign as well as to celebrate Converse's 100th Anniversary. As a member of the (red) campaign, Converse contributes 10% of the net wholesale price of these shoes to The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and specifically fund HIV/AIDS programs in Africa that focus on the health of women and children.

With that in mind, Dr. Romanelli designed his Chuck with a band-aid theme in a manner similar to what he's become know for, taking vintage fabrics and stitching them together to create new custom pieces. However, the band-aids on the shoe are actually laser-etched, making for a beautifully detailed and intricate design. “The 1HUND(RED) Artists project really motivated me to create something unique and I choose the band-aids as a fix for positive change.”

This shoe is only being released in select boutiques, and we're proud to be one of them.
