Sleek Blue-Tonal Lifestyle Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Converse and Shai Gilgeous-Alexamder Drop Chase the Drip

— October 1, 2021 — Lifestyle
Shai Gilgeous-Alexamder works in collaboration with Converse on the new Chase the Drip collection of footwear that spotlights blue tonal footwear. It spotlights both the Pro Leather Low and the Chuck 70 for two options: a higher cut silhouette and a low cut silhouette.

The young athlete infuses his design language onto the sneaker models with the notable UNC colorway. The light blue palette entirely covers the full length of the sneaker with some touches of white to contrast at the laces and the medial side for branding. The Chuck 70, on the other hand, boasts a stark design with white upper detailing. It is marked with bright blue tie-dye patterning on top of the white denim base.
