Fashion figure Ian Connor is set to make appearances in Perth, Sydney and Melbourne over the next two weeks to drop a “never-before-seen worldwide” colourway exclusively in select Australian cities.

 

The release is part of Connor’s Revenge x Storm tour with Perth’s Lesson Concept Store.

 

Born from Tumblr into the Instagram generation, Connor is best known for being Wiz Khalifa‘s stylist, working with Kanye and Virgil Abloh, and smoking through the Yeezy Season 3 presentation in Madison Square Garden.

 

But he’s had a turbulent few years.

 

Recently, amidst several surfacing rape allegations against him, Connor made headlines with a very public falling out with numerous famous friends that had once put him on. He continually denies all allegations.

 

Despite it all, Connor’s reign as self-proclaimed ‘King Of The Youth’ seems to remain largely unscathed, as evidenced by a young, devoted cult-like fanbase and the success of his Revenge x Storm collection. 

 

Yeah, it’s pretty cooked. 

 

He’ll be releasing his signature lightening Vans in US sizes 5-14 across three pop-up stores on a first-in, first-served basis; no raffle.

 

Here’s Kylie Jenner wearing the bolt (for prosperity).

Each pop-up will run for one day only, and the sneakers will come with a $350.00 price tag.

 

Investment opportunity? The shoes are likely to cop a resell of up to $500.
