CONVERSE X UNDFTD (POORMAN’S WEAPON)
Inspired by the classic military bomber jacket, this Poorman’s Weapon was designed by LA’s Undefeated crew. What seems like a simply nice black nylon shoe is loaded with top gun details including a removable Velcro Converse chevron, signature ‘War is Big Business’ embroidered patch and a manila inventory card. This is a great example of creating a themed story round a shoe that is neither corny nor unwearable and both parties should be well pleased with such a maverick result! Exclusively at Undefeated in January and at www.undftd.com
