The new Converse CONS Weapon Skate combines the best features of the classic Weapon style with updates tailored specifically for skateboarding. The new design has a drop-in Lunarlon sockliner for better cushioning, perforated memory foam and a gusseted tongue construction. The CONS Traction Rubber enhances a skater’s grip and a mesh underlay on the hallmark Star Chevron improves breathability.
To push the product celebrate the launch, Converse released a short film featuring Converse CONS team skater Zered Basset skating NYC. The Converse CONS Weapon Skate launches this fall in Lucky Stone, Navy Larkspur and Black at Converse retail stores and converse.com.
“When I’m skating in New York City, I love looking down at this sneaker,” said Zered Bassett, a member of the Converse CONS Skate Team. “The cupsole of the Converse CONS Weapon Skate protects my feet, and it’s not too thick so I can really feel my board.”
