In other news, Converse partnered with Nike to release a new sneaker, The Chuck Taylor All Star Crater.

Taking to Instagram, the brand revealed that it used waste to create something eccentric.

Converse wrote: “We’ve joined forces with Nike to transform waste into an eccentric new articulation of the Chuck Taylor All Star – The Chuck Taylor All Star Crater. ⁣Fusing Nike’s Space Hippie innovation with the DNA of our most iconic sneaker, every element is reworked to redesign an all-time classic for a waste-less future.

"Perfectly imperfect, made from at least 40% recycled content by weight. It’s one of our most sustainable sneakers yet. The aesthetic also formed the basis for our seasonal #ConverseRenew collection, reborn with unique signature star branding to define our canvas with a conscience. ⁣⁠”
