By now, those of you that follow our journal regularly will realise that we’re perfectly happy to show you great looking gear whether we stock it or not – we’re nice like that, sharing the love and all that…anyways, it’s happened again, but this time we’re sharing these trainers not just because we love them, but because the silhouette is so good we wouldn’t be surprised if you see it cropping up in other collections in the near future.
This new Comme des Garcons trainer obviously takes inspiration from the classic converse Chuck Taylor design but has been given CdG’s usual spit and polish with the quality of the finish firmly turned up to eleven. It will come in three colourways – navy, white and black – but the big twist comes with the double layered upper which adds a great new dimension to the design, especially with the added bonus of the two tone finish. It’s such a simple idea but has created a look that will everyone looking at your feet asking you wear you got them. We’ve seen them laced using both the outer eyelets and inner eyelets (pictured) which adds yet another element of variation to an already excellent design. So, can you tell we like them or what?!
