Introducing The Converse x Devin Booker Chuck 70 Sneaker
The three-time NBA All-Star’s leap into fashion and love for Chucks
Phoenix Suns SG Devin Booker has quite the resume. Between earning a gold medal at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, leading the Suns to a franchise record of 64 wins last year, and becoming a three-time NBA All-Star, it’s safe to say that Booker is basketball’s fresh faced golden boy. While Booker has indeed wowed the world with his remarkable athleticism, his killer sense of style is just as irrefutable.
During last Sunday’s Phoenix Suns vs. L.A. Clippers game, Booker was spotted strutting through the tunnel, AKA the NBA Runway, in a fit as laid back as the Michigan-native. Decked out in a white T-shirt, khaki-colored pants, and a neutral flannel, Booker was the picture of cool, calm, and collected. To accessories, the Suns player opted for a white and black snap-back and none other than the Converse x Devin Booker Chuck 70 collab sneaker.
Available April 12th at Converse.com and select retailers starting April 13, the shoe retails for $95. Naming the Chuck 70 his favorite shoe of all time last year, this Converse-Booker partnership is a match made in heaven. Fitting right in with Booker’s minimalist style, this Chuck 70 acts as a blank canvas to enhance any outfit. The shoe’s upper is composed of cream canvas. An invisible Chuck patch blends seamlessly with the canvas silhouette. The midsole is clean as can be without the brand’s classic pinstripe or toe bumper. In stripping the shoe down to its most minimal state, Converse and Booker celebrate the brand’s beloved configuration.
Accompanying the launch is a co-created short film that delineates Booker’s journey off the beaten path, all while sporting his Chuck 70s.
