The Fall/Holiday 2016 Converse Essentials collection consists of apparel staples designed to wear better with time.

It caters to a lifestyle of maximum movement and mobility.

With a nod to the Chuck Taylor All Star sneakers, the Converse Essentials collection not only looks better with age and wear, but becomes even softer with each use.

Each piece has fabric that fades naturally with long-term wear, durable stitching and a managed shrinkage fit that stays.

The new Converse Essentials collection, for men and women, has apparel mainstays—tee, crew neck, pullover hoodie, full-zip hoodie and pants.

The prewashed material allows for minimal shrinking with men’s pieces cut for a modern fit allowing maximum movement and layering, and a women’s cut that is a bit more form-fitting, both crafted for style.

Elevated construction gives these tried-and-true silhouettes a twist. Details such as muted nickel YKK zipper hardware offsets the monochrome look, and the eyelets are matte with rubberized touch for hand feel.

The Converse Essentials crew neck has a flat construction to eliminate bulk and discomfort. The pullover hoodie and full-zip hoodie have ribbed binding at the pockets and collar for a clean, simple look, a double layer, single seam hood for added warmth and a sewn-in collar notch for additional stretch when pulled over the head.

An inner phone pocket is found in these styles.

The Converse Essentials collection is available at Converse stores ranging from P 899.75 to P3,339.75 in street-ready colors such as  light grey, egret, obsidian, red block and black.  Visit www.converse.com.ph or www.facebook.com/ConversePhilippines.
