ConverseJeff HamiltonPro Leather High Violet/Poolside

Basketball once again proves itself as a main source of inspiration in the sneaker world. Converse and Chinatown Market link up with Jeff Hamilton — the creative who rose to fame as the designer for Michael Jordan’s championship jackets — for a pack that tells the story of two winning NBA teams. The Los Angeles Lakers’ famed Championship three-peat serves as the inspiration for this Pro Leather – an on-court classic made famous in 1976 by the high-flying style of Julius “Dr. J” Erving. The sneaker touts a skyline graphic over a mix of Lakers-inspired coloring. The silhouette also features a “3-In-A-Row” graphic and layered patches akin to those on the famed jackets.
