Images of Converse Japan’s November collection hit the web this week, the preview stirring up a fair amount of anticipation. Featuring classic silhouttes like the One Star, Chuck Taylor, and Jack Purcell, the collection plays with this season’s winter patterns, with reoccuring motifs of nordic sweater print, quilted fabric, and flannel plaid that can be seen through the release. Set to release next month, you can check out the comprehensive collection in its entirety after the jump.

A little over two weeks ago we showed you the result of a collaboration between Converse and Japanese brand Victim: a low-top Jack Purcell boasting blue leather material. We now have pictures of another Converse release that might very well remind sneakerheads of the aforementioned collaborative efforts. The Converse One Star Ox pictured here is cleverly nicknamed “Sturdy,” which could be a result of the help it may provide you in staying well-dressed during the cold season. One pair of “Sturdy” Ox previewed here comes in a black leather upper, with white Converse star on the mid-panel, white stitching, and a white vulcanized rubber sole. The second pair comes with a brown leather upper and is accented in the same way as the black pair. However, the brown pair comes with yellow/brown laces for added flavor. Having begun to pop up at select Converse retailers, what do you think of this limited edition, low-top Converse product?

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.

Sneakerheads showed Converse a lot of love and respect for what they did with a low-top Chuck Taylor on which they applied a “stone” color palette. Now, Converse turns its attention to the mid-top cut of the Chuck Taylor Skate. Ready for a holiday 2009 release are the two pairs of CTS Mid’s pictured here in predominantly suede black and suede brown uppers. The brown pair sports an all-white sole with a dash of black, and it is available now at Converse retailers. Interestingly enough, the black pair sports the same black accent on the sole, however, the sole is grey as opposed to white, and it is set to drop come November 1st. Both shoes are made for wear and tear as you ride down the winter streets, so pick your weapon. Which pair do you like better?
