MEXICO CITY, November 24 (EL UNIVERSAL).- The world of Coraline comes to your feet! The Converse tennis brand announced an unexpected but highly acclaimed collaboration with the characters of this animated film, directed by Henry Selick.
Originally, Coraline is based on the novel by Neil Gaiman, a British writer whose works have been notable in fantasy literature and comics. But this story is more than the adventures of a tender girl, it also has an influence on fashion.
Who doesn’t remember Coraline’s iconic yellow windbreaker with blue boots? Well now you can add a pair of sneakers to your collection with this incredible launch from the Converse brand.
What are the Converse x Coraline sneakers like?
In this collaboration we see models for girls, boys, men and women. Converse has given its iconic “Chuck Taylor All Star” boot a fun twist with Coraline prints on canvas material.
They also include a version of their boot model with EVA Lift Platform, which stands out for its denim finish with stars. While on the upper part of the ankle you can see a dragonfly:
And for the little ones in the home, Converse has presented a special edition of the “Chuck Taylor Rave” in pink. These types of tennis shoes are too comfortable for activities such as playing, jumping and imagining yourself in the Pink Palace Apartments residence.
As seen in the photos, the footwear has lilac star decorations with the mysterious cat that accompanies Coraline on her adventures:
Other models that can be used by both men and women are the “Chuck Taylor All Star” with canvas and black sole. Or, the same style but in navy blue with an illustration of Coraline on the side:
As the brand indicates on its website, the collaboration has been specially designed to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the animated film: “A collection for all ages with vibrant details that evoke ‘the other world’ Converse x Coraline.”
