The new Concepts x Converse Southern Flame arrives in Singapore on January 28. The pack offers two silhouettes, the Chuck 70 and the All Star Evo BB, each in a colorway that represents the origins and evolution of basketball—tracing its history back to Springfield, Massachusetts.
Both colorways and design details are inspired by peaches—a reference to the peach baskets that were attached to 10-foot poles, creating the first game of basketball in 1891. 130 years later, the game has evolved far beyond the school playground.
The choice of silhouettes represent the past and the present—the Chuck 70 being one of the first basketball sneakers to have been released and the All Star Evo BB representing the latest in performance technology.
