Converse and JW Anderson announce collaboration.

Converse have just announced their latest collaboration, with British fashion label JW Anderson - which is said to be the start of a long-term relationship between the two brands.

The new collection was debuted in Italy at JW Anderson’s SS18 show at Pitti Uomo.

Jonathan said about the collab: “From my very first pair, Converse have represented such a radical movement in style and culture. The contrasts and similarities between the world of Converse and the world of JW Anderson creates a space of culture tension that’s a dream to play within as a designer.”
