Shai Gilgeous-Alexander marked Oklahoma City’s Championship Ring Night with a new player-exclusive edition of his debut signature shoe, the Converse SHAI 001 “Banner.” Created to celebrate the Thunder’s first NBA title, the pair carries a white and metallic gold finish that mirrors the tone of the night’s ceremony.
The Converse SHAI 001 “Banner” is the first non-monochrome version of the model, featuring a combination of white neoprene and metallic gold overlays through the midsole and heel. Its signature zip construction maintains the shoe’s clean, minimal look, while gold embroidery and subtle detailing add a refined, commemorative touch.
The debut continues to showcase Shai’s ongoing collaboration with Converse, a partnership that has evolved in parallel with his rise to Finals MVP. His footwear line reflects his distinct balance of simplicity and precision, blending modern design language with understated personality.
The “Banner” Converse SHAI 001 remains a player-exclusive, made specifically for Shai to wear on Ring Night. Though not releasing to the public, it represents an important milestone in his journey with Converse — and a fitting tribute to the Thunder’s championship season.
