In some ways, you know us. Converse has been making Chuck Taylor All Star and One Star sneakers since we started over a century ago, and now we work to make new street style classics. What you wear defines sport, street, and creative culture, and we’ve been redefining it with you all along. When you wear Converse products, you create a culture of authentic street style simply by being yourself. Whether they’re on the feet of a ‘70’s basketball star in a history book or on the street with you today, Chucks have always signified cool...because you wear them. We don’t know where you’ll go, but we know you’ll take Converse to the future with you.

Boston-based teammates sitting at Converse HQ—including Ilana Finley, VP, Global Communications and Social & Community Impact—participated in the 8th annual MLK Day College, Career, and Health Fair, hosted by local community partner The BASE. 
 
A huge shoutout to the entire team who dedicated their time to connect with local youth.

According to Sneaker News, the Converse x Martine Ali Chuck 70 De Luxe Wedge is the wildest shoe of 2023. Do you agree? We’re definitely here for it! 

Last week, Converse officially kicked off our partnership with three dynamic designers—Martine Ali, Isabel Marant, and Feng Chen Wang—to #CreateNext and introduce something unmistakably confident and unconventionally daring.

First up: Brooklyn-based jewelry and accessories designer Martine Ali took the Chuck 70 De Luxe Wedge—our newest silhouette—and remixed it with her sleek, modular, and utilitarian aesthetic that evokes the 90s and early 2000s.

At Converse, we hold a long-standing relationship to music and the musicians that take the industry to new places. So, it should be no surprise that we love a music festival. We love discovering new artists, walking around the grounds, and—most importantly—scoping out what everyone is wearing. 
 
When longtime brand partner Tyler, the Creator told us he was bringing back his iconic Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival—the first time since 2019—we knew we had to be there to celebrate the return and our connection to music, skate, and creativity. 
 
We kicked off the weekend holding nothing back…

At this month’s Brandweek—Adweek's premiere marketing conference—Converse CMO Sejal Shah Miller sat down for a fireside chat where she debuted our brand’s first Emerging Creatives Report.

“As a brand with a longstanding history of championing creativity, we saw an opportunity to provide a look forward, through the eyes of the next generation of creatives and their perspective on the process, tools, access and creative industry structures,” said Shah Miller.

Leveraging over 500 emerging creatives from our All Star Community—a global collective from around the world connected through immersive experiences, mentorship opportunities, commissioned work, and more—the survey offers insights into what is driving their craft, fueling their creative pursuits, and causing concerns.

What’s old, is new again.

Drawing inspiration from the Converse archives, Converse Upcycled capsules seek to express iconic Converse design elements through pre-loved material mediums. This season, we’re tapping into our adoption in 90’s skate and grunge culture to rework pre-loved classic flannel shirts in the Upcycled Flannel Chuck 70.

Check out the below video to learn more about our latest capsule.
