Converse Shai 001 Premium 'Steel'

The Converse SHAI 001 Premium Steel delivers a luxury interpretation of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's debut signature sneaker, combining elite basketball performance with premium craftsmanship. Finished in a monochromatic metallic silver color scheme, this Premium edition reflects Shai's composed playing style while offering a sleek, fashion-forward aesthetic.

The upper is crafted from metallic tumbled leather with a leather-wrapped heel overlay, creating a reflective finish that shifts under changing light. Debossed tongue branding and a metallic foil sockliner add refined details without overwhelming the clean design. Performance features include a responsive forefoot Zoom Air unit for explosive cushioning, an over-lasted midsole that promotes a low-to-the-ground feel for enhanced stability, and a radial traction pattern designed to support quick cuts and multidirectional movement on the court. The metallic silver finish extends to portions of the midsole, reinforcing the sneaker's premium appearance.

Blending high-level basketball technology with elevated materials, the Converse SHAI 001 Premium Steel seamlessly transitions from on-court performance to everyday lifestyle wear. Released on June 11, 2026, the sneaker originally retailed for $150.
