Bohemian hotel company Ace Hotel (their first hotel was made from a Seattle halfway house) and Converse have teamed up again after their work together on two Ace Hotel x Converse Chuck Taylor Bosey releases, this time on another old school classic.
The Ace Hotel x Converse Pro Leather, set for a limited June 14th release, features a classic white and grey set-up, with the noticeable addition of tiny “A” cutouts throughout the upper. Premium white leather makes up the upper, while soft grey suede accents the shoe on the heel, lacelets, toebox, and the classic Converse chevron on the side of the shoe; however, that chevron is it for Converse branding, as the tongue tag and Converse star is noticeably absent on the tongue and heel, respectively. “Less is more”, maybe? The shoes come with a custom-packaged dust bag and box lid for that extra touch of class. “More for less” it is, then!
