Issa Rae x Converse By You Collection | Available Now

Since the beginning of her career in media, Issa Rae has always vocalized self-expression, self-identity, and creativity. She continues those values with her newest project, a collaboration with Converse with a collection of customizable Chuck 70s. She also tapped graphic artist, Nick Fulcher, on the collection to further her mission of inspiring the next generation of creatives through her mentorship and activism.

For her debut collection, created via the By You platform, the line contains a full customizable palette with mix and match designs to inspire your own creative process. An assortment of graphic phrases and affirmations provides words of encouragement to keep you flowing from day to night. The Chuck 70 was built from the original 1970’s design and was considered the best basketball sneaker ever. Customize your own shoe by choosing from five upper canvas colors, four tongue graphics, two midsole prints, and your choice of eyelets, laces, and ankle patch.

“It was all about empowering the next generation to get up and do what it is they aspire to do. So the team took some of my personal affirmations and approaches to life, and put them into the design of the shoe.”

— Issa Rae
