Converse x Telfar

The Converse x Telfar collaboration debuted at the Telfar spring/summer 2020 show during Paris Fashion Week. The collection included footwear, apparel, and accessories. Inspired by the designs seen in a trip to the Converse archive, Telfar crafted a collection that reinterprets Converse’s basketball heritage and taps iconic silhouettes, like the Pro Leather, ERX and Chuck 70, as his canvases.
The apparel silhouettes are also a product of Converse heritage designs – which often featured iconic athletes of the time – but now, Telfar casts figures in his world for contemporary graphic and textured iterations of jersey sets, track suits, shorts and tees.
