Converse and Brain Dead officially release their second collaboration featuring two significant silhouettes.

Kyle Ng and Ed Davis, founders and creatives of Brain Dead, who have always been closely associated with the Converse brand, have never shied away from a second sequel collection which was a natural progression from the successful previous collaborative experience. Brain Dead has always been an alternative brand that continuously seeks ways in which design can alter expectations and explores new interpretations of past classics.

Visually distorting a distinctive detail of the Chuck 70 design, the laces, the team has altered proportions: elevating the sole construction with EVA foam and optically altering its height with non-consecutive lines on the rubber edge. Like the first collaboration, the upper features a “COW” print on canvas complete with Converse and Brain Dead co-branding.

The Bosey MC, a modern interpretation of Converse’s 1940s Lakestream shoe, accompanies the Chuck 70 Hi, with Brain Dead also offering a low version, reimagined as a means to explore the utility world unconventionally.

Converse x Brain Dead is available on wearebraindead.com, Converse.com, DSMLA, DSMNY, Brain Dead Milano, and other select retailers worldwide.
