CONVERSE x GOLF LE FLEUR* GIANNO SUEDE - LAVENDER / EVERGREEN
A bold new creation from Tyler the Creator and Converse, the Gianno silhouette is the latest to enter the GOLF le FLEUR* line-up. For many, anything outside of the Chuck Taylor All-Star does not look outwardly 'Converse', however, much of Converse's DNA and heritage was drawn upon to create the all-new Gianno. Drawing inspiration from Hiking, Skateboarding, BMX, and Basketball, the Gianno's chunky profile and outsole were designed for more than just aesthetics.
Seen here in two new colors - a washed-pastel Lavender purple, as well as a stark Evergreen, the GOLF Gianno sits atop a chunky off-white rubber outsole, with lots of tread throughout. An almost entirely suede upper on the Gianno sees a white gridded rubber panel on the heel, as well as supporting eye-stay straps securing the unique lacing system. The tonal sneakers are finished off with hits of reflective 3M piping throughout, and the GOLF le FLEUR* flower logo on the side panel, tongue, and on the insole.
Release Info: The Converse x GOLF le FLEUR* Gianno Suede releases 10:00AM (PST) - Oct 15th.

Inducted for his third collaboration with Vans, Rhuigi Villaseñor of L.A-based fashion imprint - R H U D E joins Vans once more for a new set of sneakers with a familiar theme. Adopting a custom 'Bandana' print, one of Rhuigi's favourites, Vans and RHUDE unveil new iterations of 2 rare silhouettes, the Acer Ni and Diamo Ni.
The Acer Ni, as vibrant as many of RHUDES designs, features a multi-colored patchwork-like suede panelling, composed of pink, green, orange, and purple. The eye-catching Acer Ni, also sees an all-over paisley print embroidered into the suede upper.

The Diamo, which features color in the form of hits of yellow only on the heel-tab and midsole stamp, was created for customization. Rhuigi intends for the the blank canvas of the Diamo Ni to be dyed by its wearer, creating a personalized piece of art, which will be highlighted by the white paisley embroidery, which will not adopt any color from dye.
