Converse and Rick Owens continue to push boundaries with their latest collaboration, the DRKSHDW TURBOWPN, which drops on December 17th. Known for his bold approach to fashion, Owens brings his signature punk-infused aesthetic to the iconic Converse Weapon, a classic ‘80s basketball sneaker. This limited-edition mid-top sneaker reinvents the silhouette with exaggerated proportions and a distorted design that blends the rebellious edge of DRKSHDW boots with the heritage of hoops style.
The design features a sleek leather upper paired with an elevated platform midsole. The CX foam midsole is enhanced with supportive midfoot side pods, ensuring comfort and durability while maintaining a fashion-forward look. The most striking element of the TURBOWPN is its oversized, blown-out midsole and elongated tongue, giving the sneaker a distinct and avant-garde silhouette.
Rick Owens’ custom wrap-around woven label adds an extra touch of exclusivity to the design. The collaboration challenges convention and offers a fresh take on an all-time classic, making it a must-have for sneakerheads and fashion-forward individuals alike.
The Converse x DRKSHDW TURBOWPN "Grey/Egret" is set to release on December 17th, available in limited quantities. With its unique blend of basketball heritage and avant-garde fashion, this sneaker is sure to make a statement.
