Converse Philippines Welcomes Fall/Winter 2016 with #ConversePHCounterClimate Footwear Collection

As mankind faces the big issue of climate change, international sneaker brand Converse is taking one step forward as it voices its concern in fighting climate change and readies everyone


In a tropical country like the Philippines, there are only two seasons, the wet and dry. But with the continuous change in Earth's atmosphere, these two seasons are now called El Nino and La Nina, where there's a season of unbearable heat and drought, and the season of super typhoons that brings flooding all over the country. 


Converse is taking wet weather head-on this season, combining classic sneaker designs with premium weatherized features, with the debut of the Fall/Holiday 2016 Converse Counter Climate Footwear Collection. This new collections provide the necessary tools to combat the climate shifts while emphasizing essential weather-beating benefits. The innovative sneaker collections feature a bold mix of colors and materials including water repellent canvas, rubber and leather, and waterproof neoprene. Divided into three unique categories: Shield Canvas, Leather and Rubber - these collections are intended to stand up against the unpredictable inclement weather.
