Converse is releasing a new collaboration collection with Sanrio Characters. The lineup is based on the "ALL STAR," now updated with new specifications, and comes in special designs incorporating the motifs and colors of Kuromi, Hello Kitty, and Pompompurin, who marks his 30th debut anniversary in 2026. The collection also includes an original carton designed like a gift box decorated with a Hello Kitty ribbon.
The sneakers go on sale from August 21, 2026, at the CONVERSE OFFICIAL ONLINE SHOP and participating retailers.
