Converse x Shoes Inside Books
Converse is an interesting shoe company. It’s definitely one of the originals, and while it’s the go to shoe for every hipster minimalist out there, it also appears to sneakerheads with their play on materials, colorways, and collaborations (Varvatos, anyone?). Always one to extend the party, Converse continues it’s 100th year with the announcement of the “Shoes Inside Books” pack. At first glance, the Chuck Taylor Hi’s look like your run of the mill Converse, but the packaging is what sets shoes apart. The company — now a subsidiary of Nike — has created a limited edition of 1000 books, each of which contain a pair of shoes inside. The book details the history of the brand and features 100 interviews with a veritable who’s who of today’s biggest stars. There’s no word on a drop date, but there will be three colors (white, black, red) and two sizes (24 and 27cm). Keep your eye out for this unique packaging idea.
