As festival season kicks into high gear, Converse emerges as the go-to choice for fashion-forward festival-goers, offering the perfect blend of style and comfort to elevate the festival experience.
At the recent Rocking the Daisies festival, Converse took the spotlight, contributing to the vibrant atmosphere of one of Mzansi's most cherished three-day celebrations. Originating in the Western Cape over two decades ago, Rocking the Daisies has expanded its reach to Gauteng, drawing in music enthusiasts and creatives alike.
This iconic festival featured four stages hosting a stellar lineup, including international acts like JID, Stormzy, BAS, and homegrown favourites such as Focalistic, Kamo Mphela, PH, Sun EL Musician, DJ Lag, and Bongeziwe Mabandla. The festivities were marked by electrifying performances, creating unforgettable moments for attendees.
Converse, the global footwear brand, actively embraces the spirit of #CreateNext by collaborating with projects that empower young creatives in Mzansi. In a strategic move, Converse partnered with music and culture experiential brands like ComUnity, Rainbow Social, Converse Ult X, Back to The City Festival, and Rocking the Daisies.
For its second consecutive year at Rocking the Daisies, Converse went all out to embody #CreateNext through interactive activation areas. Festival-goers had the chance to engage in a skateboard park, hoop competitions, customisation stations, and graffiti walls. These spaces aimed to provide creatives with a canvas to express themselves through sport, fashion, and art, all while immersing themselves in the festival's dynamic energy.
Converse SA Marketing Manager Tebogo Motlhamme expressed the brand's excitement about the festival:
"This is a festival where creators go and collaborate from a music, art, and fashion perspective. It's great to see all the Chucks that were rocked as creatively as they were - awakening the KeDezemba spirit."
No festival experience is complete without the right attire, and Converse delivered on that front. Here's a glimpse of the festival looks that rocked the iconic Converse All Stars at the 2023 Rocking the Daisies festival, held at the scenic Cloof Wine Estate in the Western Cape.
Converse continues to make waves with its latest releases, including the Chuck Taylor All Star Cruise, Awake, AS 1 PRO editions, the Chuck 70 Geo Forma boot, and collaborative collections like A-COLD-WALL and Liverpool FC.
