Today we give you a first look at the Converse Chuck Taylor High "Leather Jacket", which is part of the Century Collection. 
"The appeal is obvious – bikers, rockers, greasers, straight edgers and even fashionistas will all want a piece of this nasty noir joint. Whilst the idea itself and link with rocking Converse heritage is credible, it’s the details in the development that make this one stand out as something much more than a simple idea done nice. This Leather Jacket has had a lot of love thrown at it – the sole is righteous in detail and the vintage moto-cycle jacket leather is locked down with finely stitched patching. There’s black anodized metal zips and deluxe waxy laces to complement the nylon quilted lining and to top it all off, there’s an embossed All Star patch and tuff-nuts buttons on the tongue of the left shoe." Via Sneaker Freaker.
The shoes will be released at premium retailers in July.
