Converse's newest collab with Shrimps is one of its most stylish yet
Those. Shoes.
Those. Shoes.
There’s nothing quite like a classic pair of black Converse, but something you need to spice things up. That’s why when we saw that Converse had paired up with one of our favourite indie British brands, Shrimps, we had a little freak out in the office. They’ve teamed up for a collaboration that’s playful and utterly chic with a capsule of chucks and clothing, which you’ll definitely want to put on your Christmas list.
The collection dropped just this morning online at Converse and Shrimps and they’re going fast, so if you’re keen on snagging something you’ll have to move fast. With prices ranging from £35-100, it’s a great way to grab a Shrimps original without resigning yourself to their usually super luxury price tags. (We’d still shell out for one of their beaded bags though.)
Their shoes are undoubtedly the centrepiece of the collection, with a pair of pink and rose rose printed One Star shoes and another white graphic pair of Chuck 70 HI kicks available. The attention to detail is pretty awesome as well, given that the Chuck 70 HI features striking black contrasting details.

The One Star’s pastel pink hue continues onto the rubber sole and if you look super closely, you’ll also be able to pick out a bit of faux fur on its heel too - a total Shrimps staple.

Both prints carry onto the clothing as well, as there’s also a pink floral tee available.

And for those who want to lounge in style, they’ve also created a Faces print pair of trackies with matching lounge trousers and hoodies. We’re always down to spend all day in our pyjamas, but at least this collab will make lazy days a little more stylish.

Sadly one of our favourite pieces, a white tee which features their tiny logo, is already sold out. Fingers crossed it comes back in stock, but we wouldn’t get our hopes up. With these limited lines, once they’re gone they’re gone.
The Shrimps x Converse collaboration is available on Converse and Shrimps’ websites, as well as in store at Dover Street Market and select retailers.
