"Stranger Things" x Nike and Converse Retro Sneaker Collection Unveiled
Share
The Nike portion encompasses three distinct sneaker models, with details paying homage to the show's "Upside Down" dimension: the branding on the tongue and heel tabs is presented upside down, and the insoles are also filled with eerie motifs. The Air Max 1 features a clean and sleek Burgundy color scheme; the LD-1000 utilizes a vibrant purple and yellow combination echoing 80s aesthetics, paired with a retro nylon upper. Rounding out the Nike lineup, the Field General High is constructed with a white leather and textured mesh upper, set on a black cleated outsole, and accented with a subdued Wolf Grey Swoosh.
On the other hand, Converse interprets the collaboration through two of its classic silhouettes. One is the Chuck 70, presented in a grey-toned upper with a "Rockin Robin" embroidery on the side, paying tribute to Robin Buckley. The All-Star patch is surrounded by crop circle embroidery and a Demogorgon graphic, while details on the midsole reference Buckley's DJ identity. The other model, the Weapon, features a vintage-inspired off-white and blue color scheme, with the series' logo graphically represented on the collar.
This "Stranger Things" x Nike/Converse collaborative sneaker collection is also expected to launch a full apparel line, including graphic T-shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, and matching tracksuits. Readers can view the officially released high-definition images of the sneakers above.
