Converse & NBA continue their partnership in crafting an NBA-Inspired shoe, commemorating the brand's influence on style and street culture. The collaboration involves reinventing the iconic Chuck Taylor 70s silhouette with a more contemporary approach. The new series pays homage to the merge of Converse and basketball as the sport's most recognized footwear essential.
The Converse & NBA re-imagined sneakers alter the silhouette using premium materials. It has a classic white midsole foundation, and the upper of each shoe sports an all-over archived imprint design gathered from the 80s. The tonal components from every respective basketball team accent the upper and the ankle stamp as well. The collaborative Converse & NBA series is available globally starting today at select stock lists, online and in Converse stores.
