pgLang x Converse Chuck 70 & Pro Leather

The legendary brand CONVERSE continues to offer us eye-catching projects. While a POKEMON pack should be released in the coming days (article available HERE), the Massachusetts-based label presents a collaboration with pgLang based on 2 iconic models, the Chuck 70 and the Pro Leather.

pgLang was founded in 2020 by artist Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free, the former president of Top Dawg Entertainement. The agency aims to support young talent, break pre-set codes and connect people through shared experiences. It’s a platform for artists of all kinds.

The founders define it as « a service company designed to support creators and projects that speak altruistically about shared experiences that connect everyone. It’s not a label, a film studio, or a publishing house. It’s something new. Curiosity, accessibility and inventiveness are at the heart of pgLang’s identity. »

This collab with Converse comes in conjunction with Kendrick Lamar’s return to the hip-hop scene. The Compton rapper will make his comeback on May 13, 2022 after 5 years of absence with a new album entitled « Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers ».

Regarding the sneakers, pgLang has revisited the Chuck 70 and the Pro Leather. They appear modernized while retaining their strong DNA.

These special versions feature a white blocking color scheme enhanced by metallic silver hiking eyelets.

The Chuck 70 features its famous Star logo on the ankle, appearing in gold with matching pgLang branding. Gold stitching, a special left heel badge and red/blue lines on the white vulcanized sole complete the look.

The Pro Leather consists of an updated white suede upper featuring blue stitching and an informative tongue tag. The iconic Chevron logo on the side appears off-white and the insole is presented in red with white « pgLang for CONVERSE » collab affirmation. An off-white sole refines the design.

The pgLang x Converse Chuck 70 & Pro Leather were released on May 2, 2022 on pg-lang.com and converse.com. Some sizes are still available, go for it !
