the retro French-Algerian look of this teaser trailer for Nom de Guerre’s new shoe collaboration with Converse (full-length trailer launches August 2). Directed by Zach Gold, the video features what look like beret-donning African soldiers, one with a fearsome scar on his face, and all of whom seem very nervous about something. And, naturally, they’re all shod in Nom de Guerre’s pared-down, waxed-cotton version of the classic Converse Skidgrip CVO sneaker. Only $80, launching today at Nom de Guerre, 640 Broadway, NYC.
