Since 1993, accessories designer Jas Sehmbi been re-discovering the craft of mixology, not the sort you find in bars but in the skills of fusing needs in an urban surrounding with the classical skills of tannery from DJ bags to his re-interpretation of the city dweller’s staple, the messenger bag. Now comes the designer first collaboration with CONVERSE, more specifically the iconic Jack Purcell, for his Jas M.B. label. Wrapped in premium leather from Italy, of which Sehmbi painstakingly “antiqued” to create the crackled effect as if the Chuck Taylor has been worn thoroughly for a few decades, without the leather losing its integrity during the process. Currently available through Japan’s FLAUGE online store on ZOZOTOWN shopping network.

Here's something a little left field from the one star brand, aka Converse. Slimming down their Chuck Taylor Low silhouette and basting it with buttery leather uppers, the CT Ox Slim is reminiscent of the premium product created for the John Varvatos range. Looking well nice Connie! Thanks to Streething.

The Japanese are renowned for their oddball inventions, be they the handy ramen face guard or the personal rain saver (executive model). Sometimes though, it takes a little bit of crazy to come with something so obvious it just clicks. Take these new V-Plus All Stars, with extra beefy padding around the ankles and a fat street-savvy tongue. As the jingle says, they’re just like a Chuck Taylor… only comfy! Available in a trio of classic varsity colourways, get into them now over at Flauge.
