With Mother’s Day ringing in this Sunday, May 11th, expect to see a number of special colorways made in tribute to the unparalleled effect of a mother’s love. While pinks and florals are typical of the beloved holiday, Converse and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander present a truly iconoclastic take with an all-black iteration inspired by the favorite color of Shai’s mother Charmaine.
Much like the SHAI 001 “Ares Grey” and “Butter”, this version of the MVP favorite’s debut signature shoe opts for a completely monochromatic spin. From the zipped-enclosed mid-foot to the rubber outsole that houses the Zoom Air cushioning, the SHAI 001 “Charm Black” is unflinchingly black without fail.
Converse and SGA recently unveiled this new colorway on social media on May 4th; it’s possible that the Thunder superstar could debut this new colorway for the opening game of the Western Conference Semi-finals series between OKC and Denver.
In other upcoming signature shoes, here’s the latest on the new Ja Morant Shoes.
