Converse celebrates the street-inspired work of Jean-Michel Basquiat. The collaboration translates some of his most influential pieces to the canvasses of Converse classics.
Converse x Basquiat Chuck 70
This premium Chuck 70 features the “Kings of Egypt III“. The design uses a digital print and embroidery details to recreate the artwork, which features signature Basquiat elements like the abstract face, cryptic type and crown motif. Suede overlays and a tonal patch elevate the look but keep the focus on the art.
Converse x Basquiat Skidgrip
The “Kings of Egypt II” is also featured on the Skidgrip. The explosion of abstract text and distorted iconography pops off the archival canvas, creating a vibrant visual language that’s influenced by Egyptian history but firmly rooted in street culture.
Converse x Basquiat Chuck Taylor All Star
The instantly recognizable dinosaur and crown imagery of Jean-Michel Basquiat’s “Pez Dispenser” translated on classic Chucks. The artwork’s instantly recognizable dinosaur and crown visual is adhered to clean black canvas through stitched-down applique.
The Converse x Basquiat Collection also includes the Pez Dispenser Tshirt in black and white, the Basquiat Crown Fleece Crew in black as well as the Basquiat Kings Of Egypt Tshirt in black.
