Most of you will already know of Bono’s latest charitable venture (RED), which helps to support Global Fund in their fight against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in Africa. But I thought I'd make sure you were aware of the latest RED collaboration, by Giles Deacon and Converse, who bring us this Mudcloth version of the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star sneaker. Finally going on sale in the UK at the end of this month (sadly not worldwide until September), these limited edition shoes join the likes of Gap, Emporio Armani and American Express in funding the worthy cause.
The shoes should shortly be available at Selfridges, other speciality stores and converse.com. For more information visit www.joinred.com [Rachel Arthur]
