PLAY It Again: Celebrating 15 Years of COMME des GARÇONS PLAY x Converse

The much-loved collaboration between COMME des GARÇONS PLAY x Converse hits a major milestone this year. It is celebrating its 15th anniversary with the return of the beloved Single Hearts design. Rolling out on Thursday, July 11th 2024, the original 2009 creation makes a grand comeback, inviting Converse fans once again to wear their hearts on their shoe.

The collaboration, which kicked off in 2009, first introduced the cutesie ‘Hearts and Eyes’ logo onto the Chuck Taylor All Star, sparking a series of over 20 sought-after designs that have left an indelible mark on the sneakerverse. This milestone edition revisits the classic cartoonish heart tooling and brings it to life on the premium Chuck 70 and Chuck 70 Ox for the first time.

Captured through Jamie Hawkesworth’s vision in “SPRING FIELD” and available in kids' sizes for the first time ever, these whimsical kicks will now be available to the whole family. This heart-stealing collection stays true to its roots, featuring the unchanged heart-and-eyes logo from the 2009 original. The OG Single Hearts pack includes four styles in classic “Milk” and “Black” colourways, with white foxing and toecaps. The Chucks offer co-branded sock-liners and OrthoLite cushioning for all-day comfort in premium canvas for an elevated feel.

No matter whether you’re a big or little sneakerhead, there's no better time than now to start wearing a pair of Converse with the hearts. Don’t miss the launch of this celebratory collection at select retailers on July 11th 2024!
