In February, during the NBA All-Star Weekend, Converse introduced a fresh player signature sneaker in collaboration with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the standout point guard for the OKC Thunder. This new shoe, the Shai 001, has now made waves with its latest “Ares Grey” colorway, adding a sleek and modern touch to the lineup.
This marks an exciting chapter for Converse as they push forward into the world of high-performance basketball footwear. Having revolutionized the game with the iconic All-Star high-top, Converse has been deeply intertwined with basketball culture for over a century. Now, armed with cutting-edge technology and innovation from Nike, they’ve appointed Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the creative force behind their basketball division, launching his signature sneaker as part of this new era.
As the NBA Playoffs heat up, brands are rolling out fresh colorways and new designs to make a statement on the court. While fans have already gotten a glimpse of the Shai 001 in the vibrant “Butter” yellow, a new version in “Ares Grey” has also made its debut. This edition is as tonal as the original, but it presents a more muted, warm grey shade that offers a sleek, minimalist vibe.
