Robert Indiana’s infamous pop art ‘LOVE’ sculpture makes its way onto the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star in this collection of both high and low top models. Originally intended to be the cover for a Christmas card, the iconic nature of the sculpture is amplified by the use of the similarly influential Converse sneaker. A direct collaboration with the artist, his work can be found on the midsole and upper, along with his signature on the tongue/insole. Set to release in the Spring of next year, you can check out some more detailed images of the collaboration effort after the jump.
