Converse and NBA continue their collaboration celebrating their influence on street culture and style with the Chuck 70. Using a modernized iteration of the 1970s silhouette, the collaboration nods to the intertwining of Converse with basketball as the sport’s most iconic footwear staple.

Updating the model with premium materials, each sneaker sits atop a classic white midsole. Calling back to an all-over-print from an ’80s archived design, the upper is enveloped in logos brought on by branding from the RocketsWarriors and Cavaliers. Tonal elements from each team’s respective athletic emblems backdrop the upper and appear in Converse’s ubiquitous medial ankle stamp to complete the aesthetic details.

Purchase the Converse x NBA globally on converse.com, Converse stores and select stockists February 14.
