Converse

Converse’s 2022 Pride campaign is all about “The Found Family.” According to their campaign, “The journey to pride is more liberating, more joyful, more real when you are surrounded by the love, support, and acceptance of those you’ve gathered along the way. That’s Found Family.”

These rainbow shoes should be a part of anyone’s Pride collection, and they can be customized and designed like the above Chucks ($85).
