The first collaboration between the TV anime Naruto Shippuden and Converse, inspired by the original work of Masashi Kishimoto, will launch on February 20 at the Converse Official Online Shop and selected retail stores. The collection features six ALL STAR models inspired by characters from Naruto Shippuden, including Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, Kakashi Hatake, Minato Namikaze, and Itachi Uchiha.
The sneakers worn by Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi are inspired by the ALL STAR OX silhouette. The upper heel features embroidered motifs representing each character. The shoelace dubrae is designed with the emblem of the Hidden Leaf Village, while the Sasuke edition uniquely showcases the scratched version of the village symbol.
Minato and Itachi’s sneakers are inspired by the classic ALL STAR HI silhouette. Each pair features an all-over graphic motif representing the respective character. On Minato’s model, the heel strap is embroidered with the kanji of the Fourth Hokage, while the ankle patch showcases the emblem of the Hidden Leaf Village. The Itachi version includes vermilion embroidery on the heel strap, replicating the inscription from the ring he wears on his right ring finger. The ankle patch is finished with the iconic Mangekyō Sharingan design.
The upcoming episodes of “NARUTO” will be broadcasted over a span of four weeks at a time yet to be announced, featuring FLOW returning to perform the opening and ending themes.
Both the original “NARUTO” anime and its sequel series, “Naruto Shippuden“, are currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll. The platform describes the series as follows:
The Village Hidden in the Leaves is home to the stealthiest ninja. But twelve years earlier, a fearsome Nine-tailed Fox terrorized the village before it was subdued and its spirit sealed within the body of a baby boy.
