Converse Sneakers Clash

Wednesday, May 14, 2014


This sight just brought me back to second year college while I was in the brink of insanity because of my AC/DC circuits subject. Though this one has very good load on it because CONVERSE just released their Spring 2014 collection. This is part of a worldwide release of an homage to the old Converse All Star '70 designed by Chuck Taylor. This is Sneakers Clash.


Included in this collection is the camouflage and zebra prints. It was first seen in the Converse All Star Chuck '70. They are bringing the nostalgia and put them into new styles now as seen above. This also contains a heavier, thicker canvas textile, a smaller toe box, reinforced stitched heels and strips, plus premium nickel metal parts, thicker and cushioned interiors.


They also introduced Michael Carandang as one of their endorsers. On this shot is the President and CEO of Filcon Manufacturing Corporation Ms. Margie Go. Carandang says Converse is like second nature to him and he can't remember not wearing them even in the US. Michael is the producer of shows like Jerry Springer, America's Next Top Model and the Tyra Banks Show. He's a full pledged Filipino and has decided to stay here now. I've seen him countless times in Philippine Fashion Week and shows from other brands but he looks happy here.

First CONVERSE Flagship Store Opens in the Philippines!

Friday, January 25, 2013

Ayala has become so hip I envy them that much in shopping choices and establishments. Another great store was opened last week at the new Glorietta wing which had local celebrities and fashionistas flock to an afternoon in Makati. This is Converse's First Flagship Store in the country!


Proud owners and executives were there too while all the guests had first dibs on the store's offerings. We were like a kid in a candy store and saw some must haves on the shelves!


Fancy something easy to wear while wearing shorts on a summer day? Here are some Jack Purcell classics. You can mix and match your footwear with your clothes. You don't need to stay with those boring shoes anymore, just grab a Converse pair and you'll get something more than what you bargained for... plus a lot more in this new store!


College or high school must haves are these awesome bags. I specifically love the plaid one which strikes me as the more classy choice. The other two would probably fall to a younger demographic. I like them too!
