At one point, the Converse Chuck 70 was the go-to lifestyle model on the market before competing silhouettes like the Dunk, New Balance 550, and adidas Samba took its place. Collaborations with the updated high-top classic were among the most sought after on the market; Brain Dead’s “What The” design, an amalgamation of the brand’s archival prints, was easily one of the best sneaker releases in 2018.
With Converse looking to regain that crown once more, they’ve been pushing mightily with their collaborations while taking a page out of parent brand Nike’s book by bringing back some old gems bordering on the level of “grail”. Yes, the Brain Dead x Converse Chuck 70 is indeed dropping again in the same design, alternating a variety of patterns in the same manner. Considering pairs are still commanding nearly triple the original MSRP on the secondary market, there’s no better time to bring back one of the brand’s best projects of the last decade.
2024 also marks the 10th Anniversary of Brain Dead’s founding, so this re-release could be a precursor to newer projects with the LA-based brand.
This collaboration is expected to return to SNKRS, Converse, and select retailers on November 7th, 2024 for $110.
