Draymond Green Reacts To New Deal With Converse

Draymond Green recently debuted the Converse G4.

Converse is one of the most legendary sneaker brands in the world and over the past couple of years, they have been trying to get back into the basketball space. They recently signed Kelly Oubre Jr. to their roster and now, Draymond Green is getting his very own deal. The deal was announced a couple of days ago and last night, Green got to debut the Converse G4 which is their latest basketball shoe constructed for the hardcourt.

In a press release issued by Converse, Green spoke about the partnership and how much it means to him.

“Converse is family. When you talk about the brand you’re talking about legends like Julius “Dr. J” Erving amongst other greats. Those names helped establish Converse as a leader and an important name in basketball footwear,” Green said. “Forming a roster that lives up to those expectations is anexciting challenge we all look forward to. If I get to conquer it with family, it don’t get no sweeter than that.”

The Converse G4 actually uses multiple Nike technologies. For instance, there is Nike React cushioning in the heel and Nike Air Zoom on the front portion of the midsole. These elements come together to form a comfortable and dynamic performance sneaker.

According to Converse, the high-top and low-top versions will be dropping soon for $120 and $110 USD, respectively.

Draymond Green Debuts New Converse Basketball Sneaker

Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green gives fans a first look at the colorful Converse G4 sneaker.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green kicked off his new partnership with Converse by debuting the brand's newest G4 basketball sneaker on Thursday night at the Chase Center. Green didn't suit up for the NBA Finals rematch against the Toronto Raptors, but he still put on for Converse by giving sneakerheads their first look at a colorful G4.

Check out the upcoming Converse Basketball sneaker in the IG post embedded below.

Green just recently left Nike, a brand that he has repped since his days at Michigan State, to sign with Converse, joining Phoenix Suns forward Kelly Oubre as the new faces of the brand's resurgent basketball category. As some of you may already know, Nike owns Converse, which means Draymond will still be under The Swoosh's umbrella as he helps usher in the new era of Converse Basketball.

The three-time All Star is currently sidelined with a knee injury, but the belief is that he'll be back on the court any day now. When he does return, it'll be interesting to see which sneaker he laces up in his first game as a Converse athlete.
