The latest GOLF le FLEUR* from Tyler, The Creator and Converse

Tyler, the Creator is audacious. He is loud. He is particular. And 2017 was a big year for the artist.

He received his first Grammy nomination for his  fourth studio album Flower Boy and  a  series of collaborations with Converse ranging from a creative interpretation of the One Star to the release of his own GOLF le FLEUR* sneaker were largely regarded as some of the most unexpected and refreshing. 

Jump into 2018 and the 26-year-old shows no signs of this vibrant energy burning out. Neither does the GOLF le FLEUR*. 

Bold pastels offer a fresh take on 2018 







Today, after much anticipation, Tyler, the Creator and Converse reveal the latest iteration of the GOLF le FLEUR*.  His signature suede sneaker comes in three bold pastels to kick off the year– geranium pink, bachelor blue and jade lime. The GOLF le FLEUR* is available for a retail price of Php 6,550 at Converse Glorietta, Converse Greenbelt and Commonwealth Greenbelt.

The collection also continues to see Converse Essentials apparel delivered from the two brands. 

The legacy French Terry Converse Essentials Hoodie, which retails for Php 4,910 features the GOLF le FLEUR* logo and is available in four complementary color ways – jade lime, peach pearl, clear water blue and egret





Cotton Jersey Converse Essentials tees come in Hawaiian ocean blue, black, peach pearl and white for Php 2,110 exclusively available at Commonwealth Greenbelt.

TYLER THE CREATOR x CONVERSE SECOND GOLF LE FLEUR* COLLABORATION

Several years ago, Tyler the Creator had a vision to launch a line of sneakers to go with his Golf Le Fleur* brand. Converse and Tyler talked about joining creative forces to create unique ideas of ownership and identity and everyone thought it was a good idea. From there, the Golf Le Fleur* collection was born.

Together, Converse and Tyler celebrate freedom of expression and choice through collaborative design made for the street.

Building on the energy and excitement of a successful partnership this past Summer, which celebrated the heritage of culture and sport in the Converse One Star silhouette, Tyler brings his imaginative design, aesthetic and bold spirit to create something entirely new with the Golf Le Fleur* collection.


Tyler, the Creator and Converse unveil the new collection with Tyler’s signature flower design in Kasina, Seoul South Korea’s largest street wear concept shop. 

Tyler’s Golf Le Fleur* signature sneaker is a bold interpretation of the One Star silhouette. 





Incorporating the classic premium suede upper rendered in his unique flower design, it transforms the One Star silhouette into something never before seen. The outsole features Golf Le Fleur* graphics with exaggerated eye stays, comfort collar and tongue, heel counter overlay and Ortholite sock liner for cushioning.

It is available in three colorways: jolly green, solar power and vanilla.

The new Golf Le Fleur* collection is exclusively available at Commonwealth, SM Aura for Php 5,990.00.

Converse announces collaborative One Star Collection with Engineered Garments

CREATIVE DIRECTOR AND FOUNDER DAIKI SUZUKI OF ENGINEERED GARMENTS SET TO RELEASE SPECIAL EDITION CONVERSE ONE STAR 


Converse and Engineered Garments have come together to introduce a new collaborative line of One Star sneakers. Engineered Garments Creative Director and Founder, Daiki Suzuki issues a collection that reflects his personal journey and relationship with Converse and plays on his affinity to reinvent and reengineer, while keeping with the shoe’s iconic look. 

The Converse x Engineered Garments One Star collection is available in four iterations of the classic One Star logo including the Star Chevron, Stars & Bars, and two variations for the customary star. Suzuki recalls a specific era for each style all representing silhouettes of his personal favorites from Converse.



 

The collection is available in four premium leather colorways including Olive, Navy, White, and Black. Aligned with Suzuki’s ethos of conceptual design through experience, the collection provides a lense on Converse’s daring versatility through the years.

Founder, Daiki Suzuki says of the collaboration, 
“When approached with the project to work with Converse the idea came from wanting to tell a bit of the history of the company, first and foremost. Chuck Taylor, for us is a perfect shoe that we weren’t sure we could add or subtract to, its remained almost unchanged all this time. The One Star or rather the iterations after the “Leather All Star” was a canvas we thought could be mined to create something new. 
“For Nepenthes/Engineered Garments, we have played around with the idea of twisting ideas together, creating negative/positive’s in one pair of shoes. In attempting to create something new, we thought it would be best to start the relationship by revisiting the past and melding the first four (after that “Leather All Star”) models into one. Doing them all at once will have memories for some, seeing them come out when they did and for others it will be a lesson on how things can change subtly over time. For myself it represents my youth, memories I hold dear.”

The sneakers are leather-lined with an Engineered Garments branded logo illustrated on the shoe’s sockliner. Each pair are housed in Engineered Garments premium packaging with tonal cotton laces.

The debut Engineered Garments Converse One Star collection is exclusively available in Commonwealth, SM Aura for Php 5,990.
