Converse Wade 3 – Special Edition

Converse Wade 3 – Special Edition

pic_1785

Dwyane Wade wore the Converse Wade 3 during the 2007-08 season.  The shoe featured a sharp, angular design punctuated by a series of triangles stacked on the heel.  While there were plenty of colourways released for the season, these two pairs were not among that run.  NikeTalk member dandill23 apparently found these colourways at his local Converse outlet and no one, including the owner, can account for them.  It seems unlikely that they were samples, considering their appearance in US mens size 13, but the red/black and tonal brown pairs you’ll see after the jump are a mystery to us.  Take a look at the photos and let us know if you’ve seen these at your local Cons outlet or anywhere else.

Update: From Converse – Both of those shoes were limited edition shoes that were produced for the House of Hoops store in Harlem. The brown color way is inspired by the Black Five and the Rens. We used very rich leathers that gave the shoe a nostalgic finish. The black /red color way was a modern twist on the Heats team colors. We looked at using some modern materials. Both colors were limited to 24 pairs produced each. (Thanks Dan)
