Converse One Star Ox Comme des Garcons PLAY Black

The Converse One Star Ox Comme des Garcons PLAY Black is a re-imagined version of the classic Converse One Star, designed by Converse in conjunction with Comme des Garcons, a Paris-based Japanese fashion label.

This low-top sneaker maintains the canvas upper build of the original. Its black upper is detailed with Comme des Garcons’ signature red heart logo on the lateral side, two Converse star prints (one right next to CDG’s heart logo and another on the medial side), and white stitching. Beneath the upper of the Comme des Garcons Converse One Star Ox PLAY Black is a flat rubber sole patterned for underfoot traction, and inside the shoe is a branded insole with foam cushioning for comfort.

The attention to detail paid on the Converse One Star Ox Comme des Garcons PLAY Black is what we love most about the shoe. Everything on this shoe, released on July 28, 2022, for $140, from its well-done stitching to its decisively placed branding, is well executed.
