Converse Reveals SHAI 001 'Winter Red' for the Holiday Season
Shai’s signature sneaker gets a holiday makeover.ByAaron ShamimNov 27, 2025

The Converse SHAI 001 'Winter Red' delivers a festive twist to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s debut signature line, placing his sleek silhouette right into the holiday rotation. The Oklahoma City Thunder star now joins the tradition of season-ready colorways with a design that feels timely without losing the refined identity that defines the SHAI 001. It’s clean, controlled, and unmistakably Shai.

Staying true to the minimalist vision behind the series, the 'Winter Red' colorway keeps the zipper shroud, sculpted sidewalls, and smooth neoprene-like upper intact while introducing pine green hits along the zipper track, tongue logo, and outsole. The contrast adds just enough seasonal energy without turning the shoe into a gimmick — a balance the model has mastered since launch. The result feels familiar to previous monochrome drops but elevated with subtle holiday character.
The Converse SHAI 001 'Winter Red' is set to release on December 11, 2025 with a retail price of $130 USD, making it one of the most accessible signature drops of the season. Whether you’re wearing it on court or off, this colorway proves Shai’s line can shift with the calendar without sacrificing its signature restraint.
