Converse SHAI 001 Lace UpCheetah

Product Description

The Converse SHAI 001 Lace Up Cheetah brings an animal-print detail to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s signature basketball shoe. A padded cheetah-print tongue stands out against the SHAI 001’s sculptural shape, giving this version an identifying feature visible even when the shoe is being worn. The Lace Up design uses traditional laces to adjust the fit while retaining the original model’s rounded silhouette.

Beneath the expressive exterior, Converse includes a Zoom Air unit in the forefoot for a springy feel and radial traction designed for quick movements on court. The molded upper contributes to the shoe’s distinctive look, and Shai’s logo appears on the tongue. Those details make Cheetah more than a print change: it remains a performance basketball shoe with a clear connection to the player’s style.

For SHAI 001 collectors, the cheetah tongue separates this pair from the line’s single-color releases. It offers a playful way to wear a signature model designed for both basketball and everyday outfits. The retail price is $120, and the release date is September 3, 2026.
