Converse X Martine Ali, Capturing the Y2K Generation

Street culture icon Converse is set to unveil a new collaboration with Brooklyn-based designer Martine Ali.

Well-known among music and fashion scene celebrities, designer Martine Ali is known for pursuing modular designs that allow for expression of diversity and originality, inspired by the style of the 90s and 00s, presenting jewelry and bags.

The Converse X Martine Ali collaboration presents an iconic Chuck 70 Hi design reinterpreted from the original Converse XXHi and an edgy apparel collection that offers various styling options.

The Converse X Martine Ali Chuck 70 XXHi reinterprets the beloved classic Chuck 70 hightops into knee-high designs, integrating Y2K style with custom metal materials and various buckle designs.

Washed twill material, back zippers, edgy metal details, classic outsoles, and the Chuck Taylor ankle patch are among the diverse elements that blend harmoniously with the classic Chuck 70 design.

Converse X Martine Ali has also unveiled an edgy apparel collection that allows for various stylings of the Chuck 70 XXHi.

Converse X Martine Ali jackets and skirts are styled with Martine Ali's modular approach, incorporating details for styling options. The skirt features detachable zipper closures for versatility in length, providing both style and functionality, while the jacket in all-black design includes a snap closure on the central placket for potential crop styling. Additional details include packable hoods, stitching, and collaborative embroidery, and both items are made from lightweight nylon material.

The hoodie features a crop design enhanced with heavyweight French terry material, while the T-shirt stands out with a bold V-neck cut and large graphic on the back, embodying Y2K style elements and collaboration details.

The Converse X Martine Ali collection will be released online on March 21st on the official Converse website and Musinsa, and offline at Converse Hongdae store and Casestudy Cheongdam.
