Converse Spectre “Reverse OG” Release

An iconic shoe has returned from the stratosphere! The 1986 Converse “Spectre GL” is here now and available to be purchased! It was a shoe notably endorsed by the incomparable Julius “Dr. J” Erving! We believe he deserves a resurgence in notoriety for his contributions to the game and his professionalism off the court, and even to this day stands as paragon for all to recognize. We used the opportunity to recreated and repurpose the shoe we were fortunate enough to acquire and it was customized in a “Reverse OG” Chevron logo style! It meticulous details, from stenciling the “Dr. J” logo, to using Angelus renowned leather paint to resurrect details on the sole trademark logo, yet still keeping the shoe with a minimalist feel.

This shoe was actually produced in the U.S. in a factory located in Maine, which makes it more special not being a typical import. We made this one of one!

We compiled a few pics from his momentous final season, including the campaign from Converse and a farewell tour photo, which was a trail of many aggrandizements as here went to different cities. He was truly revered on and off the court!
