Converse x Undefeated Team for New Collection

[sg-gallery]

We love unique partnerships over here at SLAM, and this one between Converse and Undefeated is particularly dope. The two brands teamed up for a new collection featuring exclusive kicks, tees and hats and will be sold exclusively at Foot Locker in the very near future. To launch the brand, the two held an event in New York City featuring a panel of those involved closely with the brand to discuss how it all came together.

From our friends at Converse and Undefeated:
