As part of their 1HUND(RED) Artists project, Converse now got together with Danish brand Wood Wood. They worked on the Chuck Taylor Hi and gave it a very clean look. The entire upper comes in a lavender premium suede, the lining features the Wood Wood star map pattern, the tongue comes with a Wood Wood logo tag.

Otherwise the sneaker comes with the usual Converse 1HUND(RED) details, such as the red lace wholes at the top. A fantastic monochrome take on this classic sneaker by Wood Wood.

The Converse 1HUND(RED) Artists Wood Wood Chuck Taylor Hi will be released on October 1rst at the following US locations: Nom de Guerre, Dave’s Quality Meat, St. Alfred and Undefeated LA.

Detailed images of the sneaker follow after the jump.

Wizards, and design inspiration from the crazy mind of legendary skateboarder, Mark Gonzales, éS designers worked some magical wizardry on the Prequel Mid and Square One models.
The Prequel Mid is a black mid-top featuring a gold and blue plaid pattern, while the Square One rocks some sharp black and gold stitching throughout, along with the Krooked eye’s graphic on the side panel.
