Although the Pro Leather was a basketball shoe in the 1970s, it was its embrace from the skate world in the 1990s that made this look ideal for Rokit to reimagine. The new-look Pro Leather is predominantly white and features translucent midsoles and outsoles (with an orange Converse logo underneath) and co-branding on each side of the upper. Retail price is set at $110.
Greenhouse will also relaunch the Converse x Rokit Chuck 70 that already made its debut this year. The high-top style, according to Greenhouse, blends skateboarding and street basketball style, and includes details inspired by both classic outdoor apparel and the vibrancy of ’90s sportswear. It features black uppers, white midsoles and translucent outsoles, and includes co-branding on the tongues. The sneakers will retail for $110.
The Rokit x Converse Pro Leather and Chuck 70 styles will launch via the Greenhouse app on July 16. Also, a limited quantity will be available at select Foot Locker stores and on Footlocker.com.
