Ibn Jasper Fuses Skate And Motorsports On His Converse x Kith Looney Toons Chuck 70 sneakers Collaboration

Lupe Fiasco once rapped, “the reason I got fly is Ibn Jasper.” To the uninformed, the name drop might’ve just been random, but to those in the know, it was a shoutout and touchpoint to a well-connected barber from Chicago.

Converse All Star Owari-Shippo High Glow in the Dark Virgil Abloh, serving as a friend, consultant and “Master Barber” as is listed on his Instagram page. In 2018, the low-key figure announced the launch of his own footwear brand, STRATICA INTERNATIONAL, on social media, which fit in with the myriad of skate and motorsports-related content published on the ‘gram. On May 20th, “Ferrari Murakami” is set to drop a Converse x Kith Looney Toons Chuck 70 sneakers collaboration that builds upon the work he’s already done with STRATICA INTERNATIONAL. The low-top silhouette is reimagined with Top tooling, functional pull tabs at the heel and a mix of high-quality materials throughout the upper. Together, each aforementioned component fuses all the worlds in which Jasper and his debardeur-making crew dabble. Color palettes across both of the Chicagoan’s Converse styles indulge in relatively classic tones, though checkerboard flags and other contrasting accents give the One Star pairs laborious touches.
