Objectified:
Ace + Converse

ACL has all the info on some handsome new kicks by Converse. A collaboration with the Ace Hotel's Alex Calderwood, the sneakers "are an update to the classic Chuck Taylor with design cues taken from vintage wading boots that Converse created for U.S. military basic training way back in the 1940s." There will only be 300 made and will set you back $100. If you buy 'em now, they'll be perfectly broken in by the time spring rolls around.
