Converse Releases All Star Collaboration With Pokémon

Converse has released a new lineup of Pokémon-inspired high tops for its latest All Star collaboration.

Each of the four colorways pay homage to some of the most iconic Pokémon characters to date. The colors correspond to the character, with the canary yellow pair taking design notes from Pikachu, the mustard yellow representing Eevee, the orange one for Charizard and the gray purple colorway for Mewtwo. The names of the Pokémon are printed on the hell of the shoe, along with its Pokédex number, height and weight. Sticking with the Pokémon theme, each pair of high tops will arrive in a special Pokéball-inspired red and white shoe box.

The collaboration also extends to preschool sizing, with four playful velcro high-top designs that feature Pikachu, Eevee, Piplup and Mew. Depending on the angle of the shoe, each of the holographic All Star logos changes to a Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball or Master Ball to match the color scheme of the shoe. The kids’ versions also include two pairs of glow and the dark shoes, arriving in a classic black and white. Pokémon and All Star fans can purchase these shoes on Converse Japan’s official website for approximately $99 USD. Take a look above at the Pokémon collab high tops.
