Alexis Sablone, pro skateboarder, architect, sculptor, painter, and producer, debuts the Converse AS-1 Pro, her performance signature shoe, made for “the modern creative and skateboarder alike.”
The AS-1 Pro is a design collaboration between Converse and Sablone that takes inspiration from Converse basketball and court silhouettes of the 1980s with comfort features for skaters.
The AS-1 Pro is the first cup sole offering in the Converse Cons line; created with a newly engineered coring built into the outsole. The cup sole helps increase impact protection while maintaining board feel. The herringbone outsole maximizes the grip between the board and the shoe.
The silhouette features a CX foam sock liner for impact protection and cushioning. The height of the rubber lateral sidewall handles the demands of skateboarders.
The Converse AS-1 Pro will release globally on May 2 in the green colorway; the red and black colorways on June 2.
