Louie Lopez’ first signature CONS shoe dropped back in 2019 and since then, he’s grown up a ton. His second Converse signature model—the Louie Lopez 2—shook things up in early March, dropping in a unique, metallic-looking, silver/white/black colorway.
Well, CONS has wasted no time bringing new colorways our way, and the shoes are now available in a black and white suede colorway as well. Simple, clean and ready to skate! Get a closer look below. These are hitting shops now.

“How did Louie Lopez find inspiration for his latest signature skate shoe?” Converse asks on their site. “By turning to classic Converse track and field cleats. The result? A sleek, low-profile style that gives you next-level boardfeel, durability, and a clean look, on or off the board.”

“Representing his growth as a skateboarder and young man and his refined taste in personal style, the Louie Lopez Pro 2 is the result of continuous innovation and collaboration between Louie and Converse’s design team,” Converse mentioned.
“Building from scratch, Louie and the creative team drew inspiration from Converse’s archives, pulling elements from lesser-known sports heritage silhouettes like the Converse Kangaroo (track shoe), Converse All Star Pennant (cleat), and Converse Check Point (tennis shoe), amongst others, while ensuring the design optimized for impact cushioning and board feel.”
The shoes prove that Louie is here to stay, in my opinion. Well-deserved! Hit your local shop and swoop a pair. But act fast, because these are bound to move!
