An all-over print for Cons/Converse with a nautical theme (from the same season as the Lobster-Sub print). 

I looked at old nautical and coastline maps for this camouflage print, picking out certain details and markings, and also parts of the Northeast coastline patched together into islands. The final design colors were simplified a bit, and then a couple of different color-ways developed from that.
