Converse Chuck 70 Hi Upcycled Egret For Sale

Both styles use a upcycled raw canvas upper with an unaltered “Egret” shade. This material is 40% virgin cotton and 30% organic cotton, and its natural demeanor is furthered with rough raised seams around the eyestays, toebox, heel strips and the Hi’s signature medial collar badge. Even the eyelets and toe cap are altered, trading out their metal and rubber builds in favor of thickly stitched thread and more canvas, respectively.

Midsoles do away with foxing and stripes, opting instead for an entirely monochromatic look. The only divergence from this single-colored construction is served up by the heel badges, which add black text and a direct nod to the Renew line. Brown rubber outsoles are recycled as well, with a speckled pattern provided by reused materials. The simple-yet effective palette presented by both of these Chucks can tell a story as well: as it gets dirty, it’ll present a unique, worn-in patina.
