Devin Booker Reimagines Classic Converse Sneaker

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has teamed up with Converse to reimagine a classic sneaker.
In this story:

The NBA regular season concluded on Sunday afternoon, and now all eyes turn to the Valley of the Sun. Hoops fans everywhere have high expectations for the Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference Playoffs, and one of the team's leaders appears cooler than ever.

Before Sunday afternoon's game, Devin Booker debuted a new colorway of an iconic sneaker he designed in collaboration with Converse. Booker’s new Converse collaboration to life and represent his vision of a new Chuck 70. 

Booker’s affinity for the Chuck 70 is well documented, having dubbed the Chuck 70 his favorite shoe in 2022 and a staple of the tunnel fit titan’s classic, minimalist wardrobe – so much so that Booker approached Converse to design and execute his take on the silhouette.

Booker’s vision of the silhouette is executed with an undyed, egret canvas upper complemented by a tonal embroidered Chuck patch and a clean tape midsole with no pinstripe or toe bumper. 

The Converse x Devin Booker Chuck 70 will be available globally on April 12 on the Converse website and the Nike SNKRS app and on April 13 at Foot Locker and select retail partners. 

Additionally, fans can look forward to a short film starring Booker, which pays homage to vintage Americana, which will be available on Wednesday, April 12, on Converse digital channels.
