Liverpool e Converse are collaborating but no football jersey is on sight Reds continue to flirt with basketball imagery after partnership with LeBron James

Having anticipated the collaboration between Liverpool and Converse earlier this week, today we can already take a look at the result of the meeting between these two global icons. The collection focuses heavily on the lifestyle aspect of the two brands and includes nine pieces, all featuring the famous Liverpool and Converse logos. Although Converse's history is closely linked to the world of basketball, in the early 2000s the brand produced football kits for two lesser-known clubs: Atlético Nacional in Colombia and Politehnica Timișoara in Romania.

It's the first time the two brands have collaborated, showing that football's aesthetic is increasingly approaching a lifestyle dimension of its own, as well as conquering spaces normally occupied by other sports. After the collaboration between the Reds and LeBron James, sealed by a collection that included both a football jersey and a basketball jersey, Converse is now also entering Liverpool's orbit, along with its 70s heritage and street-forward.
