Patta and Experimental Jetset are collaborating for yet another time, as they are set to release a full collection of designs representing ‘psychogeography’. Uniting with Converse to offer a fresh take on the highly respected Chuck 70 silhouette, this three-way collaboration reminds us that it’s okay to sometimes drift in life and carve your own path in the process.

Nearly everyone has owned a pair of Chuck Taylors at some point in their lives, and regardless of where you were raised, the brand has played a significant role in culture and continues to do so. Converse, who continue to champion its recent multi-format campaign, “”Create Now. Create Next”- bringing together seasoned and up-and-coming artists from more than 18 cities worldwide.

Therefore, this global Converse campaign makes perfect sense along the Patta x Experimental Jetset x Converse Chuck 70 to be released later this week. The dynamics and adventure rooted in this sneaker, encouraging aimless city exploration – perfect for the nomad.

As one explores, the red and blue arrows suggest a sense of free-flowing anti-direction. The arrows, which evoke the energy of making your own way in life, don’t follow the conventional rules for clear directions, giving typical city maps a psychogeographic twist instead. The side and tongue are then covered in black-dressed symbols, cardinal directions, and writing, with the latter bearing the messages: “…to walk is to read — to read is to walk” and “the city is an infrastructure of language.”

On November 10, the Patta x Experimental Jetset x Converse Chuck 70 Hi will be available for purchase at Patta’s Chapter Stores worldwide, as well as online and on the Patta App.
