ADER ERROR x Converse Chuck Taylor 1970s Ox

https://eukicks.com/ader-error-x-converse-chuck-taylor-1970s-ox/

Along with a high-top, the ADER ERROR x Converse Chuck Taylor 1970s Ox will release on the 1st of August. Find the sneaker through shops like UK based END or get the kicks directly through converse.com.

What could be a better canvas to showcase ADER ERROR’s “The new is not new” philosophy than the Converse Chuck 70? The classic pair get a bold revamp courtesy of the South Korean label, while remaining a symbol of fashion’s cyclical nature. Blue canvas uppers are overlaid with organically shaped canvas cut outs at the lace stays while that thought-provoking slogan is printed at the vintage-tinged rubber toe cap. A dramatically distressed outsole creates a stylish distortion that looks to both past and future.

END

Converse and ADER ERROR collaborate on a new drop inspired by the old. Using a unique layered approach, the Korean brand crafts a distinct Chuck 70 that celebrates the look of aged, well-worn sneakers. Founded in 2014, ADER ERROR’s slogan is “but near missed things.” It’s a philosophy that looks to the past to design what’s next—re-editing to create styles that are both nostalgic and forward looking. The canvas design draws inspiration from the iconic look of old Chucks, capturing the spirit of that aged aesthetic through an array of imperfect details, including roughed up canvas overlays and a burnished distressed effect on the foxing. Converse x ADER ERROR: Create Next—the new is not new.

WHY YOU SHOULD BE DOWN

• Limited-edition, low-top sneakers designed by ADER ERROR with graphic print “the new” on right toecap and “not new” on left toecap

https://eukicks.com/size-x-new-balance-580-in-green-cream-brown/

Inspired by the “huge gaming culture of the noughties” size? cooked up two colorways of the 580. In addition to the Purple, Plum & Sea Green colorway, the collection includes the edition seen here.

The size? x New Balance 580 in green, cream and brown is now available exclusive to size? for £130.

The New Balance 580 has seen a recent revival, and we couldn’t wait to give our take on the silhouette which has seen a huge surge in popularity following its 2022 re-released. Boasting a ‘Green/Cream/Brown’ colourway, this one’s inspired by the huge gaming culture of the noughties. Layers of premium leather overlay textile bases, whilst eye-catching tones pay homage to old-school gaming devices. Branding sits in the usual spots, while chunky rubber soles offer a contemporary aesthetic. Rollbar technology delivers stability to your step, plus ABZORB midsoles enhance comfort and signing the pair off is tacky tread. | MT580Z2

Advisory Board Crystals x Vans EVDNT EXT ULTI “Miracle Conditions”

https://advisoryboardcrystals.com/collections/abc-x-vans/products/copy-of-abc-x-vans-evdnt-ext-ulti-miracle-conditions?variant=42505857761475

Vans (1966) and Advisory Board Crystals (2015) is the convergence of two California based brands centered on the sport of creativity. All work we do with Vans represents the expressive creators of the counterculture movement. Nonconforming, anti, divergent thinking; while at a glance can appear negatively charged are in fact tentpoles of everything we have explored since our inception. Counterculture informs critical thought process and when oppositional forces reach critical mass, can trigger dramatic cultural changes.

Establishing the basis of countercultures importance in this work, the conceptual thought for our first collaborative project with Vans is the exploration of the intersection of miracle conditions and the pseudoscientific effect on human consciousness. The root ideals of Abc. rest within pseudoscience art and fact. Crystals in their purest form are part of the history and base material that is planet earth. Beyond the use for industry, the artistic context of their mystical aspects always function as a guiding light of thought process and overall meaning.

As a studio favorite, fire opals, ethereal in appearance, give almost a similar internal response. Staring into the blissful abyss akin to that of a galaxy, the colors of a fire opal can take your mind to an near super conscious place. Is this what is it like to question reality?

“Your love has passed through me and now I feel my mind something like an opal, that is, full of strange uncertain hues and colors, of warm lights and quick shadows and of broken music.” James Joyce wrote this of Opals a hundred years ago and his words capture some of the truest qualities of the almost unsettling beauty of an opal.

For our first shoe collaboration with Vans, we worked on a newer model, the EVDNT. The many aspects and technical construction of this model allowed us utilize layering, transparency, and the various materials necessary to transform the shoe into an abstract adaptation representative of a fire opal. The general idea is to feel the pseudoscientific energy of what it would be to wear a fire opal on your feet. Metaphysically, this stone is an amplifier and the fire property is said to spark personal creativity. The products we set forth are centered on supporting the bodies of the most creative minds and this shoe does just that.

Technically speaking, we developed an Abc. lace lock which turns our model of the EVDNT into a slip on. We worked with the Vans team on getting the gestalt of the lace just right in order to give the perfect nuanced arch shape over the top of the foot when worn. Checkerboard suede color blocking, mesh tones, transparent holographics, opal patterns, and reflective properties all contribute to the shoes sculptural feeling. The matte silver components and custom Swarovski crystal Opal eyelets work harmoniously with the intentional chaos of a man made ‘organic’ product. We took into account every single detail of the shoe, lining the inner with a vegan leather to give a super plush feel (making these comfortable Vans was a goal) and even sewed the custom developed jelly Opal holographic fabrication cover onto the foot bed insoles to ensure the collaborative branding never wears off. You’ll find our signature pull tabs on the tongue and back heel as a functional way to slide the shoes on and off, capped off by our signature authenticity hologram on the back heels. The holographic jelly Opal fabric can also be found underneath the toecap peeking out near the 3m lacing system, and on the varying Opal graphics on both left and right shoes. We manufactured the tongue labels in italy which include a specific serial number / clg code per pair of shoes that can be verified on our website allowing for a secure way to authenticate these shoes forever.

We wanted to keep the shoebox quintessentially Vans. Using the recycled cardboard box while adding the juxtaposition of a custom collaborative holographic security seal on both sides of the box. We were lucky to get the approval to flip the iconic turtle logo to have the ‘crystals’ verbiage inside. We reoriented the bottom of the box where to holograms are to ensure no information was covered. We also designed a ‘crystals’ tissue paper and collaborative information label sticker included with each shoe.

To accompany the shoe, we designed and produced an apparel and accessory collection using our own (Abc.) factory. The concept here was to build around the shoe. If the shoe is the mined opal worn to support the bodies of “The World’s Most Creative Minds,” the apparel is there to do the same. We thought the idea of “creative mining” was interesting. A play on the concept but also reality of who these clothes are for. The person who mined for the crystal but also for the thinker who mines for thoughts, inspiration, and progress. From the psychical to the mental. Mind, body, and spirit in alignment, always. The apparel caries across aspects of the shoes including Swarovski rivets and fire opal references and graphics, along with a specially developed multilayered holographic patch. Keeping to earth tones, the pieces feel as at home working on a sculpture, coding a website, giving a lecture, or digging for crystals. Also developed was a new take on our rapper necklace, instead of crystals using synthetic fire opal to create something we’ve never seen before. Cast in a matte silver to match the components of the shoe, the opal feels almost three dimensional in day to day wear.
