These Converse x John Elliott Skidgrip arrive in a colorway in which a lichen green hue emerges over purple accents, giving a geode-like look to a sneaker that is a legend among the California skater community. Though rooted in tennis and basketball, the Skidgrip found new life amongst California skaters. It’s here where Elliott was first introduced to the shoe, making this forthcoming capsule all the more personal. “I discovered the Skidgrip like any kid in California through skating early in my childhood. It’s a silhouette that’s iconic to our surf and skate culture. As a skate shoe, it was instantly recognizable for the authenticity it held. The Skidgrip is an important shoe in culture for skate and in representing California,” the designer commented.
