Play CDG x Converse One Star Academy Pro

Play Comme des Garçons x Converse One Star Academy Pro has arrived at Dover Street Market Paris.

The One Star Academy Pro is instantly recognisable for its timeless style and enhanced functionality – featuring premium canvas material, CX foam cushioning for an elevated board feel, and a CONS traction outsole that offers exceptional grip. Available in Milk/Black and Black/Egret colourways, this collaboration honours the rich legacies of both brands by incorporating the classic Play heart emblem on the One Star.

The campaign, featuring skater, designer, and artist Alexis Sablone, was shot by Harmony Korine and produced by his multimedia collective EDGLRD. Known for his experimental approach to art and film, Korine’s work adds a layer of artistic depth to this collaboration. By blending mixed media elements – film, photography, and digital techniques – Korine and EDGLRD create a visually immersive experience. For this campaign, he employs gritty street visuals alongside surreal, dreamlike sequences, crafting an experimental narrative that blurs the lines between reality and abstraction. The result is a compelling tribute to the cultural intersection of skateboarding, fashion, and art.

The Play Comme des Garçons x Converse One Star Academy Pro launches exclusively at selected Comme des Garçons and Dover Street Market stores globally, except Japan, as well as Dover Street Market E-SHOPs and Converse.com.
