Converse's modernist evolution according to A-COLD-WALL* Samuel Ross reinterprets converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lugged and ERX with utility aesthetic
Asymmetry, material research and the exploration of neutral tones have always been the pillars on which Samuel Ross has built the identity of his brand, A-COLD-WALL*. In his latest collaboration with Converse, the British designer wanted to express the evolutionary parable of his career as a designer by reworking two classic silhouettes of the brand that appeared in the SS20 show of A-COLD-WALL*, the Chuck Taylor All Star Lugged and the ERX, pairing them with two tracksuits that represent the different joints of his personal aesthetic. Describing the concept of the collaborative capsule Samuel Ross said:
«If volume one of A-COLD-WALL* had a linear approach, now the psyche is applied to wearable form. The extremes are filtered through humanity».
