Converse has teamed up with The Pokémon Company to reveal a footwear and apparel collection, memorializing the 25th anniversary of the mega-popular video game, trading card, and anime empire.
Starting off the collection, we have a Pokémon x Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star “First Partners” featuring a classic black canvas upper with graphics of beloved characters like Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Pikachu, Meowth, and Jigglypuff. The asymmetrical pair also swaps out the classic Chuck patch and top eyelet and replaces it with a Poké Ball and a custom license plate along with a lightning bolt motif inspired by Pikachu’s Electric-type moves.
Furthermore, in the collection, we have the “Poké Ball” colorway which consists of a white upper and monochrome graphics of the aforementioned cast. On the lateral walls, a Poké Ball is embedded into the shoe near the ankle collars.
The collaboration also has a collection of heavy metal tour merch-inspired tees, a commemorative hoodie, a sherpa-lined Jigglypuff crewneck, and a range of accessories.
The full Converse x Pokémon range will be released through Converse webstore and at global retailers on December 10.
