Oshi no Ko Fans Get First-Look Reveal at Exclusive New Converse Release

by

Converse and B-Komachi are teaming up to release a new line of shoes honoring the popular anime series, Oshi no Ko. This collaboration represents a major step for the franchise as the third season of the anime continues to be a hit.

Converse recently previewed four special designs created in collaboration with the anime Oshi no Ko. These limited-edition “All Star Light Plts” shoes are inspired by the popular idol group B-Komachi. Three designs represent the group’s members – Ruby, Kana, and Mem-cho – and the fourth honors the team at Ichigo Production, the agency that helped launch B-Komachi to stardom.

I’m so excited to share that this amazing collection is dropping on February 13th, 2026, at ABC-Mart stores all over Japan! It’s going to let us fans finally wear clothes inspired by the characters we love. They’re releasing two different styles: the B-Komachi models will be around 13,200 yen (about $87), and the Ichigo Production version will be 10,890 yen (roughly $72). I can’t wait!

Converse Unveils New Oshi no Ko Shoe Collection With February Release Date

Each shoe design is tailored to reflect the unique style and performance energy of the idol it’s based on. For example, Ruby Hoshino’s model has a large ribbon on the heel and pink satin laces to match her idol image, and Kana Arima’s design uses frills and a white color scheme that reminds fans of her glow stick.

Mem-cho’s shoes feature a striking black and yellow design. They include a thick platform sole and a label that mimics her iconic horn headband. As a special detail for fans, each pair also has the signature of the idol it represents printed on the inside of the tongue.

I noticed a pair of sneakers from Ichigo Productions that really lean into a practical, workwear vibe. They’re black and designed to hide dirt, clearly taking inspiration from the look of the studio’s hardworking crew. A nice touch is the label on the tongue where you can write your name, and they’ve got the studio’s logo on the heel, too.

This model also includes extra shoelaces in pink, white, and yellow. These colors match the official light stick colors of the B-Komachi members Ruby, Kana, and Mem-cho, letting fans personalize their shoes to show support for their favorite member.

If you buy a pair of shoes from the official ABC-MART online store or certain stores in Japan, you’ll get a special acrylic stand featuring the character that matches your shoe style, while supplies last. Currently, this new collection is only available in Japan, but it might be released in other countries soon, following the pattern of previous anime and manga-themed sneaker releases.

Similar to other popular series, Oshi no Ko has partnered with various brands while the anime was being released to boost its visibility. Before the second season began, they released a special collection featuring unique designs of Ai Hoshino and the members of B-Komachi. The series also gained popularity through collaborations with well-known characters like Hello Kitty and Cinnamoroll.

Oshi no Ko Season 3 is currently for fans in the U.S. and Canada.
