The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Hi Basquiat Kings of Egypt III is a redesigned version of the Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Hi that honors the life and influence of the iconic Brooklyn-born artist Jean-Michel Basquiat.

A high-profile basketball sneaker, this shoe boasts a black poly canvas upper highlighted with graphics from a 1982 oil painting by the artist, tonal suede overlays towards the toe box and around the heel, metallic eyelets, black laces, a rubberized toe box, and a blacked-out traditional Converse Chuck Taylor All Star patch. The upper for the Basquiat Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Hi Kings of Egypt III is mounted on a white rubber midsole, with black pinstripes and mismatched Basquiat and Converse branding on each license plate, and a black rubber outsole hardened for durability and patterned for underfoot grip.

The detailed graphics on the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star 70 Hi Basquiat Kings of Egypt III are what we love most about the shoe since they give it a unique look. This shoe, launched as part of a Converse capsule collection based on the artist, was released on September 9th, 2021, for $110.
