Saint Alfred, one of Chicago's original premier sources linking sneakerheads and designer-geared fashion from around the globe, has done it again. They've collaborated with Converse to produce a First String release of the brand's famed Pro-Leather model. Utilizing materials like wool flannel, nylon banding and premium leather, the basketball sneaker that Dr. Jay brought to fame is given a modern and quite handsome update. Saint Alfred, since being started in 2005 by the geniuses that founded Kicks Hawaii, has remained a pulsing source of streetwear meets sartorial mens fashion evident in the brogue detailing and understated tasteful colorways of the two models offered. Paying homage to the cold winters of Chicago and the more in-tuned sensibilities of the sneakerheads worldwide, this sneaker is going to be a good one to cop for its classic and versatile high/low appeal. Available on December 29th as a First String release at Saint Alfred.
