#MadeByYou: Converse Egypt Celebrates Up-And-Coming Local Artists

This Wednesday, Converse Egypt is celebrating 98 years of the iconic All Stars and the untamed spirit of those of us who can’t live without our Chucks.

You can tell a lot about a person from their shoes, and a pair of Chuck Taylors is like spotting a wink in a crowded room — you know he’s a little bit rebellious, she’s a little bit wild, they appreciate creativity — just like you.

Organized by Nineteen84 Management, the private Converse “Made By You” launch event at GuBar will feature four up-and-coming talents — product designer Nada Kabil, photographer Haya Khairat, artist Farahzada El Shihy and digital artist Nour El Sayed — who will display pieces of work specially made for the event and inspired by Converse’s signature Chuck Taylor All Stars.

Take a look at some of their outstanding work below:

Things can get pretty messy on the weekend! (Please don’t let my mama see this mess or she’ll kill me!)
