Rick Owens Reworks the Weapon for His Latests DRKSHDW x Converse Collaboration

Design legend Rick Ownes and his DRKSHDW imprint will return to Converse for a brand new rock-inspired model, the DRKSHDW x Converse TURBOWPN, that takes heavy cues from a classic Converse creation.

The punk-fueled collaboration with DRKSHDW transforms another court icon: the Converse Weapon. With a rebellious mindset to challenge the ubiquitous and break convention, Rick Owens exaggerates the proportions and distorts the lines of the legendary basketball sneaker. The result is a distinct design that sits at the intersection of hoops style and subversive fashion, bringing the edge of DRKSHDW boots to an iconic ‘80s basketball mid-top. Delivered in two colorways, Ric prepares both in completely tonal options of clay and egret to kick off the new campaign.

Grab an official look at the new designs here below, and look for the duo to hit Converse.comand select retailers globally come May 3rd for $200 a pop.
