Civilist and Converse CONS Do It For BerlinRelease: 21 November 2017
Tapping into the heart of Berlin’s skate scene, Converse have partnered with Civilist and created two shred-ready CONS.
A reflection on the city’s influence on the global skate, the collaboration features a white One Star Pro and black CTAS All Star Pro, both of which draw inspiration from two of Berlin’s preeminent landmarks: the TV Tower in the east and Radio Tower out west. The black and white contrast represents the Wall-era geopolitical divide, while the shoes come together under the same banner in recognition of a modern-day unity.
They come complete with Nike’s Lunarlon cushioning and traction rubber, as well as sturdy leather uppers built to take a beating.
