I am very excited to finally see the release of the Staple x Converse Sea Star Mid. The Sea Star never existed before as a mid, only as a low. We added the mid and the puffed out collar to give it a bit of skate/city appeal. But we kept the boating aesthetic for the most part. Even the outsole features nautical inspired terms in case you’re stuck out in the high seas. The exterior of the collar is water resistant as well. It drops this Saturday 2/7/09 at Reed Space.
To be honest, I’m not very clear as to who else got these. I heard 10 Corso Como has it in Italy. It’s already sold out at Colette. So any info you have, please, let other readers know in the Comments. Enjoy!
Staple x Converse Sea Star Midがやっとリリースされてとても嬉しいです。Sea Starはローのみでしか存在していなかったのですが、今回初めてミッドが出ます。僕たちがミッド部分と膨らんだふちを足して少しスケート/シティーっぽさを出しました。でも、大半はボートシューズの要素を残しています。アウトソールも航海に適していて、沖に取り残されても大丈夫。ふちの外側も防水です。今週の土曜日の2009年2月7日にReed Spaceで発売です。
正直、ほかでの販売は僕でもあまりよくわかりません。イタリアでは10 Corso Comoと聞きました。Coletteではすでに完売しました。なので、情報を持っている方はほかの読者にもわかるよう、コメント欄に書いてください!Enjoy!





these are amazing…job well done
where are these dropping. (besides reed space)
These look amazing; as a native Newport, Rhode Island-er I love the reinvention of the boat shoe steez. Good job!
i think huf in sf is carrying them.
best pigeons yet. I would consider braving a small, rioting crowd of 30+ year olds for these.
you can still get them at patta in amsterdam, i bought mine yesterday

[...] Earlier in the year, we dropped an entirely new style with Converse called the Seastar Mid and we blessed it with our trademark Pigeon motif. Converse asked used to revisit the style, but this time, for the CONVERSE 1HUND(RED) Campaign. This version helps to save lives in Africa. The Converse 1HUND(RED) initiative is a year-long global project celebrating our partnership and commemorating the brand’s 100th anniversary. They brought together 100 artists from around the globe to celebrate the artistic spirit and help eliminate AIDS in Africa. In keeping with the (RED) theme, we kept this version simple: Black, White and RED. And yes, if it feels a ‘lil “23″ to you, it ain’t a coincidence. Same features as the earlier Pigeon version are all present and accounted for. Mid cut puffed out collar to give it more comfort, warmth and protection. Outsole features nautical inspired terms in case you’re stuck out in the high seas. And the exterior of the collar is water resistant as well. The new Converse 1HUND(RED) x Staple Design Sea Star will premiere October 8th, 2009 and be sold exclusively at Reed Space in New York City. [...]
