Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Is Championship-Ready in the Converse SHAI 001 “Ares Gray”

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has once again shone, leading the Oklahoma City Thunder to an outstanding NBA season with a final record of 68 wins and only 14 losses. This remarkable player is strongly favored to win this year’s MVP award, having delivered one of the most impressive guard performances in recent memory.

This past weekend, SGA made an appearance on the basketball court for game one of the NBA Playoffs, facing off against Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies. The match ended with a significant 51-point win for the Thunder. While his play on the court wasn’t particularly outstanding, his footwear certainly caught attention. In this game, he unveiled a second colorway of his upcoming signature shoe, the Converse SHAI 001. Named the “Ares Gray” edition, it honors his young son Ares who was born nearly a year ago. This version features a sleek upper and flexible shroud system covered in a smooth gray hue.

Currently, Converse Hoops has not disclosed any launch details about the “Ares Gray” color variant of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s Converse SHAI 001. Keep an eye out for future announcements, which will likely include a full gallery showcasing the shoe. We anticipate that this model will make its debut this fall through both Converse and selected retailers, with a starting price of $130 USD.
