The collaboration features fresh interpretations of two iconic silhouettes - the Chuck 70 and Chuck 70 De Luxe Squared - alongside a capsule of limited-edition apparel.

The collection incorporates Pan-African colors and quilted patterns throughout its designs. The Chuck 70 showcases black uppers with red, yellow, and green accents, complemented by shield logo stitching. Its counterpart, the Chuck 70 De Luxe Squared, maintains similar color elements while introducing angular design elements for a contemporary aesthetic. Both models feature custom details including specialized ankle patches, license plates, and outsoles that merge elements from both brands.

The accompanying apparel line consists of six pieces that extend the collection's visual themes. A quilted Malden Liner jacket leads the range, accompanied by a full-zip fleece hoodie, Gold Standard tee, wide-leg pants, cropped shirt, and cargo skirt with practical features such as welt pockets and an open seam slit.

Abderrahmane Trabsini, Co-founder and Design Director of Daily Paper, describes the collaboration as a celebration of community and self-expression. The campaign, shot in Senegal, contextualizes the collection within the country's rich cultural landscape, highlighting the intersection of fashion, identity, and cultural heritage.

The collection represents a meeting point between Daily Paper's contemporary design approach and Converse's established heritage, emphasizing themes of cultural diversity and creative expression. Both brands have historically focused on community engagement and inclusive design philosophies.

This collaboration arrives as part of both brands' ongoing efforts to create meaningful partnerships that resonate with their global audiences while honoring cultural heritage through contemporary design.
