Rapper Wiz Khalifa has teamed up with footwear bosses at Converse to create a new collection.
The designers unveiled their Fall 2013 Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Wiz Khalifa line on Thursday (15Aug13).
The collection featured 12 new styles inspired by new dad Khalifa's
"rebellious and fashion-forward style".
The collaboration marks Khalifa's first ever footwear
collection.
The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania star says, "I've always gravitated
toward Converse because of how solid the brand is. It's clean and
it's classic. I was excited to collaborate with the team at
Converse because I felt they really got my individual style and
vision. The sneakers in my collection are dope and I'm excited to
share them with my fans."
