Converse has launched The Retro Running Collective. This move blends nostalgia with contemporary flair. It is a collection that reimagines its rich running heritage for the modern lifestyle. This exciting lineup includes the Wave Trainer, Omni Trainer, and Omega Trainer. Each model draws inspiration from Converse’s iconic archival running shoe designs of the 1980s.

Converse, a pioneer in the sneaker world since 1908, boasts an impressive archive of over 10,000 items. This treasure trove of innovation has been a constant source of inspiration for the brand’s future designs. Rather than simply recreating past models, Converse has always pushed boundaries by mixing elements to create something new and unique. The Retro Running Collective is a testament to this pioneering spirit.

It features an embroidered Star Chevron logo and a reflective overlay. The design focuses on comfort with a CX foam sock liner and midsole. The traction rubber outsole adds an authentic touch.
  • Omni Trainer: This trainer draws inspiration from the 1984 Converse Equinox. It combines a sport nylon ripstop upper with suede overlays for durability. The design also offers retro charm. It also features a CX foam midsole and sock liner for enhanced comfort.
