关于我们

With a 115-plus-year legacy behind us, we’re looking to the future — a future in which conformity falls and originality rises. A brand for and of creators, we provoke and enable those independent enough not to follow to challenge convention through their ideas, actions, and ingenuity. We design so you can express your true self. We innovate so you can leap before you look. We create space for you and other mavericks and dreamers to break the rules, together. Because rules limit possibilities. Based in Boston. Part of NIKE, Inc., but distinctly ourselves.

    "When you put a period on an idea, you’re not leaving space for the creativity to flow.” As our VP/GM of North America?Brandis Russell?reminded us this weekend — when she sat down with PLC Detroit president?Dr. D'Wayne Edwards at the Black Footwear Forum — the best work comes out of the collective genius. Along with advocating for making space for young creators and replacing ego and fear with affirmation and care, she also encouraged women to “play big” — just some of the wisdom she’s gained over her career (which includes 20 years with?Nike),?that we get to benefit from every day.

    We are a brand for and of creators — and the other week we took some time to celebrate the intersection by hosting The conVERSE in Boston, for our HQ employees. Some highlights … CONS riders Gavin Bottger, Bryce Wettstein, Zered Bassett, and Kevin Kowalski dominated a bespoke skate ramp that has since been donated to teens right in our backyard. Bryce then serenaded the crowd with her ukulele and an original song before the riders sat down with Celtics host Melisa Valdez (a.k.a. our MC for the day) to chat competition hacks and their favorite tricks. There was also plenty of action on the custom Converse basketball court, where employees competed in a wild of game of Around the World, while DJ Towfu spun tunes all afternoon long.

    Behind every collaboration we do, there are Converse designers responsible for passing the partner’s vision through our heritage lens and managing product creation logistics, such as blueprint and pattern revisions. In the case of our recent Converse x Isabel Marant collection, one of those designers was Katie Blauer.? ? Katie helped design the first Converse internal wedge, the Platform Plus, back in 2012, which made her the perfect fit to join forces with the Converse Energy team in working with the French designer, who is widely credited for leading the sneaker wedge trend of the 2010s.? ? Together, Katie and the team took Isabel’s vision to give a legacy Converse shoe a signature Isabel Marant twist and turned it into a new silhouette: the Chuck 70 Wedge. They also translated Isabel’s eclectic aesthetic into a fresh take on the classic Chuck 70, allowing fans of either brand an introduction to the other.? ? And while Katie notes that the sneaker wedge silhouette is often either loved or hated, she believes this anti-conformist vibe makes it just right for us.

    Meet the creative minds behind some wildly inventive custom Converse designs — from painterly flora and fauna illustrations to all-seeing eyes looking towards an unknown future. Over the past two weeks, 32 ninth- to eleventh-grade students have worked with Converse volunteer mentors to design and create a pair of Chuck Taylor All Stars and t-shirts at The Possible Zone (TPZ), a Boston-based organization providing engaging, hands-on, and tuition-free entrepreneurship and experiential learning programs that prepare high-school students from under-resourced communities for life-long learning and careers. Now in its third year, the Converse 101 Deep Dive is part of TPZ’s broader Deep Dives program offering, which equips students with transferable skills and gives them a taste of Boston’s creative industry. Specifically, Converse mentors guide the student cohorts in bringing their unique inspirations to life, helping them navigate group collaboration and build professional skills. Converse Lead Color & Product Designer Kyle B. Hart, who has served as a design mentor for three years, says that seeing the kids show off their work at the end of the program keeps him coming back. “They're super hyped on it,” he says, “which makes me feel really thankful to be a part of the program. It helps me give back in a meaningful way. And my life is drastically improved when I'm of service to others. If we all just do our part, if we all just do a little bit, the lift becomes so much lighter.” But can a two-week program really move the needle? Absolutely, says Janet Hollingsworth, VP of STEAM and Innovation at TPZ. “Our young people to this day still talk about the folks that were in the very first Converse workshop. The students still remember their names; they still remember what they did; they still proudly wear their t-shirts and their sneakers. That shows that this has a lasting impact in our students’ lives. Even three or four years after the very first engagement, we are still seeing that connection, as strong as ever.”

    Fueling youth leadership and creativity through positive youth development is core to Converse and the work of our Social & Community Impact team. To further this goal, our SCI team partners with non-profit organizations to create and fund programs that #support and engage youth across a variety of intersectional communities. Knowing an important part of this work is #collaboration, Converse created Community Conversations—a moment for all US-based partners to come together to meet, learn from each other, and celebrate the impact of their work. For its second year, Converse Community Conversations was held at our HQ in Boston. During the two-day experience, there were site visits to local non-profits and workshops that focused on inclusivity, fostering culture, intergenerational impact, and more. We also hosted 70-plus young people from our local community partners at Converse HQ for a celebration that included music, art, and a ton of Converse swag. A huge thank you to all the organizations that participated!

    Nearly 40 years ago, Converse debuted our most iconic basketball silhouette—the Converse Weapon—at NBA All-Star Weekend. At that moment, we introduced to the game of basketball a silhouette that would become the preeminent sneaker of choice for players of the era. Since then, the connection between Converse and basketball has been unbreakable, our unique histories forever intertwined. Earlier this month, our legacy and impact in the sport came full circle as we returned to NBA All-Star Weekend for the re-launch of the Converse Weapon, led by our Create History Not Hype campaign starring Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. On the ground in Indianapolis, Converse created a branded footprint in the streets with a one-of-a-kind pop-up experience, along with a tri-brand moment with Nike and Jordan as part of an activation with Foot Locker. But we weren’t done there… Converse hosted Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for a conversation on the re-launch of the Converse Weapon, the Create History Not Hype campaign, and his ongoing partnership with our brand, moderated by fashion and basketball journalist Speedy Morman. What a big weekend for basketball and an even bigger weekend for our brand. Check out some of the photos below! #CreateNext #WeCreateNext #NBAAllStarWeekend
