#TREND MEN - Converse "Made By You"


Sneakers are one of those timeless items of clothing - they never go out of fashion. However, Alan has always battled to get his head around the idea of incorporating less-formal footwear into his more formal daily attire.  In the past, Krishen has tried to convince him otherwise but with little success.

Then the unexpected happened.  We were invited to attend an exclusive Converse "Made By You" dinner and, along with the invitation, two pairs of new All Star Chuck Taylors arrived on our doorstep.  We couldn't wait to try them out and, guess what? Alan has subsequently been seen wearing them on more than one occasion. It's what Krishen refers to as "a miracle breakthrough"!


The "Made By You" dinner was a mouthwatering occasion where
we got to catch up with our fashionable friends Kevin McLennan,
Irina Doman and Kelly Fung.

“Made By You is a global celebration highlighting Converse Chuck Taylor All Star, and those who wear them. Converse has curated a collection of Chuck Taylor All Star portraits, showcasing endless diversity and self-expression of individuals past and present who choose to wear Chuck Taylor All Star – from musicians to artists, skaters to fashionistas. While we dined in style, our very own "shoe portraits" were taken and later sent to us.


The idea behind the latest Converse campaign is to celebrate
fans of the Chuck Taylor All Star sneaker. Their sneakers are defined by
those who wear them. Their portraits offer a view into the worlds they
inhabit.


Getting into the swing of things.

portraits.
 


Krishen has always preferred a more casual, urban look.
Clearly Alan is now a convert too!
