Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Oklahoma City Thunder guard, first hinted at the pink colorway of his Converse Shai 001 signature shoe in an Instagram post back in September. Now, official product images have surfaced on the backend of Converse's website, indicating that the release is likely approaching soon.
The sneaker showcases a fully tonal pink design, covering the molded upper and extending to the rubber outsoles. Gilgeous-Alexander's signature logo is embroidered on the tongue, while Converse's Chevron logo adorns the heel counter. The inspiration for this particular style remains unknown, according to reports.
Although the title suggests a 2026 release date, no official confirmation has been provided by the brand regarding the exact launch timeline or pricing. Complex Sneakers advises checking back for updates in the coming weeks.
This pink iteration joins other recent colorways of the Shai 001, such as an all-white version for the new year and Christmas-inspired designs. The shoe line draws partial inspiration from Gilgeous-Alexander's family in previous releases.
