Basketball Leather Makes Up the beautiful people x Converse ERX-400 EW HI
For the court and beyond.
Converse Japan is reuniting with local brand beautiful people for its second collaborative collection. The duo first connected in early 2022, seeing the rising label transform the All-Star with premium materials and chunky soles.
For its second installment, Converse and beautiful people embrace the ERX-400 EW HI model and take inspiration from realism art. The sneaker is designed with authentic basketball leather in pure white hues for the court and beyond. The tonal offering features cutout Converse medial branding, collaborative throat scripture, and basketball-shaped hang tags.
Furthermore, the retro silhouette dons dipped rear panels with protective shields for intense use, allowing for increased heel support with cushioned technology. Layered “ENERGY WAVE” soles complete the design with debossed lettering and scored bottoms.
Take a closer look at the beautiful people x Converse ERX-400 EW HI in the gallery above. Pre-orders have opened via the Converse Japan website, while the collaboration will launch on May 20 at national retailers for ¥33,000 YEN (approximately $245 USD).
