The earth-toned Naruto Shippuden x Converse Chuck Taylor “Gaara” highlights the Fifth Kazekage and one of the Three Sand Siblings. Gaara is one of the most memorable characters in the Japanese anime and manga series, whose sand manipulation powers give him the upper hand against other ninjas.
This limited-edition Chuck Taylor colourway presents a reddish-brown hue on the wrinkled nylon upper to resemble Gaara’s distinctive hairstyle. The embroidered kanji on the lateral panel translates to “love”, a mark found on the character’s forehead. A metallic silver shuriken decorates the beige suede logo patch on the medial ankle, while the patterns on the textured midsole pay homage to the sand gourd. The One-Tailed Beast, Shukaku, appears inside the tongue, complementing the full-length graphics on the insole. A durable rubber sole sits underfoot for superb traction on any terrain.
Set to launch on the 22nd of May on the Converse website and select UK retailers, you can find out where to buy the Naruto Shippuden x Converse Chuck Taylor “Gaara” by keeping it locked to The Sole Supplier!
