The final pair of Virgil Abloh's 'The Ten' collection, the Off-White x Chuck Taylor All-Star 70 was released in May 2017 as part of the 'GHOSTING' pack. Featuring a translucent white upper and an ice-blue gradient on the sole, the shoe features bold lettering along its silhouette: LEFT and RIGHT on the toecaps, “VULCANIZED” over the midsole, “SHOELACES” on each lace, with Off-White's stamp on each side-panel. A red zip-tie hooked through the laces completes the look.

With the Off-White x Chuck 70 ‘White,’ Virgil Abloh places an emphasis on accessibility and wearability. Consequently, the iconic silhouette is dressed in conventional cotton canvas and finished in a versatile crisp white shade. Virgil even keeps the shoe’s signature and rubber license plate, though the latter is flipped upside down. Additional flourishes include the Off-White’s trademark diagonal stripes on the midsole, printed text on the medial side and a bright orange outsole.

Made in collaboration with Virgil Abloh’s luxury streetwear brand, the OFF-WHITE x women’s Air Jordan 4 SP ‘Sail’ delivers a subdued take on the classic silhouette. The deconstructed leather build is rendered in a monochromatic off-white finish, complete with semi-translucent TPU detailing on the molded eyelets, structural ‘wings’ and Nike Air-branded heel panel. Abloh’s signature flourishes include a tonal zip tie and ‘AIR’ printed above the visible Air sole unit.
