The relationship between Converse and Italian fashion house Missoni dates back to 2008, and ever since the two have been churning out eye-catching takes on some of the brand's most famous sneakers.

For Summer 2015, they're hooking back up for a pack consisting of the Chuck Taylor All-Star '70 and the slip-on Deck Star. These styles carry over themes found in Missoni's Spring/Summer 2015 collection which takes inspiration from the voyages of urban surfers. Each sneaker's upper is adorned with an innovative multi-stitch jacquard pattern that blends cotton, rayon, and flax materials for a textured feel.

These are slated to drop this Friday, July 17, at Converse stores and select retailers for $200 apiece.
