Late last year, UK retailer size? linked up with Converse for a special makeup of the Breakpoint Ox model. Originally released in 1975, the sneaker's retro style was met with a warm welcoming, and now Converse has even bigger plans for the same model thanks to some of Europe's best sneaker boutiques.

On Friday the 13, famed European boutiques Solebox, Patta, FootPatrol, and Starcow will get the chance to work their magic on the Converse Breakpoint. The good folks over at Solebox recently gave an in-depth look at the Berlin shop's take on the low-top, and the all-red makeup is an updated way to revisit this part of Converse's history.

Expect the sneakers to drop tomorrow, Friday, February 13, and they'll be going for 85€ (roughly $97). If the blazing red upper wasn't enough of a selling point on this Solebox pair, check the snakeskin-like heel tab.

The Solebox x Converse Breakpoint will be available in-store first with the remaining pairs to pop up online.
