Converse debuts Dungeons & Dragons footwear and apparel

Posted on 20th March 2024 By Billy Langsworthy

Converse has teamed up with Hasbro to launch a collection of Dungeons & Dragons footwear and apparel.

Marking the brand’s 50th anniversary, the range includes two Chuck 70 iterations that focus on first edition illustrations, graphics and characters seen within the core rulebooks of D&D – “Players Handbook,” “Dungeon Master’s Guide,” and “Monster Manual.” The collection also includes Chuck Taylor All Star iterations, as well as an assortment of apparel spanning tees, a crewneck, shorts and a trucker hat.

The Chuck 70 silhouettes feature moulded faceted stars on the Chuck patch in a nod to D20 dice, and all adult footwear styles feature a hexagonal, beveled top eyelet. All footwear styles feature nods to the history of the game on the lining of the tongue and take inspiration from the character sheet on the opposing lining, giving wearers to chance to personalise player names and stats on the shoe.

Additionally, fans will be able to customise footwear styles on Converse By You with a selection of options and prints inspired by the game.

The collection will debut at Gary Con XVI – the fan event celebrating the life and works of the game’s co-creator, Gary Gygax – from March 21st to 24th. The range will then become available globally from April 11th at Converse.com and select retailers.
