Announced at the midway point of 2021, the Converse CX lineage is a special collection of classic designs reimagined for the modern market, with a heavy focus on contemporary design and superior comfort — both elements that retro models lack severely. The latest design to arise from the CX series, the Converse Weapon CX, does just that, bolstered by upgrades to its cushioning and comfort, paired with a design refresh.
Just moments after Rick Owens remixed the silhouette, the mainline releases will begin to appear, including this new black/white option that’s scheduled to release today. It sees a new, chunkier midsole comprised of innovative Converse CX foam for improved stride and comfort, while heritage leather builds in keeps the retro aesthetic intact. There’s also an aged-look aesthetic applied to the two debut pairs, with egret-tinted midsoles hamming up the Instagram-worthy trend.
Grab an official look at the two new Converse Weapon CX colorways here below, and look for these to become available from Converse.com on September 2nd from 10 am ET.
