i got the opportunity to participate in Converse's 1Hund(red) project and somehow ended up being the only canadian designer selected. my shoe comes out in february here in vancouver and i'm having a charity event/launch party here on the 19th with a shop called Livestock .
All profits from the shoe sold at the event will also be donated directly to the Global Fund by Livestock (this is in addition to the donation already made by Converse for every shoe sold wholesale).
Anyways yea just wanted to share! really excited to see people get to wear them, and support The Global Fund doing it.
here's a couple flicks of the production sample:
