The F/CE. x Converse QAK CP GORE-TEX Hi Is the Ultimate Winter Essential

Summer is the best time of the year to rock those new high-heat kicks you won through a local store raffle, the Nike SNKRS app, or adidas Confirmed. But unfortunately, summer doesn't last forever, and we know that protecting your kicks from severe weather conditions take priority. So why not look into a more functional pair? Arriving just in time for the frosty season ahead is the F/CE x Converse QAK CP GORE-TEX Hi, and lucky us, we've got all the details you need to know about this offering from Converse Japan's Camping Supply division!

At a glance, we can already assume that the pair's design might not be appealing to you at first, but are you really planning to flex your new Air Jordan 1s or Nike Dunks out in the rain? Japan-born brand F/CE, renowned for its products with high functionality, has joined forces with American shoe company Converse to revisit the Quake; an outdoor silhouette from 1992 which features Cordura-woven materials delivering high levels of durability. So hands down these are the ultimate winter staple shoes.

The Converse QAK CP re-emerged last year with its OG low-cut profile—as most Converse fans would know. But this year, we're being blessed with a high-top boot rendition that calls in high-performance GORE-TEX materials perfecting the One Star shoe's outdoor setup. A technical blend of ballistic nylon panels, waterproof suede overlays, a detachable belt unit, TPU midsole insert, EVA foam cushioning, and rugged outsole ensure that these Converse boots are extremely waterproof, breathable, durable, and comfortable for all-day wear. As far as colour arrangement goes, a greyscale palette adorns the ensemble giving off a very similar outfit to Samuel Ross' A-COLD-WALL x Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star Lugged Hi.

Rounding off the forthcoming F/CE. x Converse QAK CP GORE-TEX Hi are cutout Converse logos on the quarter slabs and the text “Converse Camping Supply” debossed on the rear segments. We recommend that you keep it locked in right here at The Sole Supplier for all the latest Converse releases as this pair will get you through the winter without a doubt! While you're here, why not add some subtle style back into your fits with these fire Converse pieces?
