Converse and Nissin team up to release Cup Noodles-inspired sneakers

Converse is set to release Cup Noodles-inspired sneakers in collaboration with Japanese food company Nissin Foods.

Sneakerheads will have three pairs to choose from: two high-cut variations and one low-cut variation.

The high-top variations feature elements inspired by the packaging of Cup Noodles’ original and seafood flavors, such as the Nissin Foods logo and a barcode under the Converse logo.

The low-top variation is covered with Cup Noodles logos and Nissin Foods insignias.

One of its most unique features is its laces, which have been curled to resemble cooked instant noodles.
