Who would have thought that Tyler, the Creator, would be one of the most prominent style icons today? If you followed his career closely—from Bastard and the introduction of the rest of Odd Future, Loiter Squad and his goofy antics that blew up online, GOLF, his subsequent albums and change in musicality, his first fashion show June last year and his jump to Converse—it would have been a wild, but believable ride. And that’s the short story of it all. Can you believe this guy achieved so much at 26? Talk about goals.
But even if you’re not familiar with Wolf Haley a.k.a. DJ Stank Daddy a.k.a. Ace, the Creator, his latest creation in collaboration with Converse will turn your head. Just look at that distinctly Tyler-ized Converse One Star silhouette. Damn.
Incorporating the classic premium suede upper rendered in his unique flower design, it transforms the Converse One Star silhouette into something never before seen. The outsole features Golf Le Fleur* graphics with exaggerated eye stays, comfort collar and tongue, heel counter overlay and Ortholite sock liner for cushioning.
The Golf Le Fleur* comes in three colorways: jolly green, solar power, and vanilla. Pairs are sold at Commonwealth, SM Aura for Php 5,990.00. Just make sure to remember Tyler’s advice before getting one:
