Converse Is Now Wrapping Its Sneakers In Andy Warhol's Art

Converse Is Now Wrapping Its Sneakers In Andy Warhol's Art
Taking inspiration from the artist who once screen-printed his own custom pair of Chuck Taylors, Converse has just announced its new 2015 All Star Andy Warhol Collection featuring a series of high-top and low-cut kicks wrapped in some of his most iconic soup-inspired pieces.

Available starting on February 7, Converse’s Andy Warhol collection will range in price from $US35 to $US90. And before you cry foul of the company taking advantage of the artist’s legacy, keep in mind that a portion of all the proceeds will actually go directly to the The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. So you could be helping a struggling artist who might one day find their own creations wrapped around a shoe.
