From tripping around the festival circuit to just a damn good pair of shoes, the rebellious spirit of the brand has permeated youth culture for almost a century – transcending eras, decades and trends. The brand's latest project, Made By You, is all about embracing the creative art of wearing kicks, trading in on the shoe’s ability to act as a blank canvas. Reasserting Converse’s anarchic roots by featuring portraits of wearers, from iconic artists and designers such as Karl Lagerfeld, Andy Warhol, Patti Smith, and Dazed founder Jefferson Hack, alongside the general public, all proudly sporting their much-loved Chucks.
