Nike and Converse Drop a Stranger Things Collection Filled With Hawkins Nostalgia

Nike and Converse are giving fans a stylish send-off as Stranger Things heads into its final season. The brands have teamed up with Netflix for a limited-edition collection that blends the supernatural mood of Hawkins with the athletic silhouettes that defined the late 1980s. The result is a lineup that feels worn in, story driven, and instantly connected to the world of Stranger Things.

The release highlights both footwear and apparel, each piece filled with little details that reference scenes, locations, and characters from the show. Everything carries a touch of 1987, from the materials to the finishes, creating a look that feels lifted straight from the Upside Down.

A Nike Dunk Low sits at the center of the drop. It arrived earlier in November with cracked leather panels, stained laces, and a weathered midsole that give it a lived-in feel. Hidden Upside Down logos nod to the series without overpowering the design, making it a subtle collectible for fans.

Nike goes even deeper into its archive with versions of the Field General High, Air Max 1, and LD-1000. Each shoe connects to the types of sneakers the characters wore throughout the seasons. Stranger Things branding, story cues, and packaging that looks like aged storage boxes help complete the illusion of something preserved from the late 80s.

Converse joins in with two major models shaped by show references. The Converse x Stranger Things Chuck 70 arrives with distressed canvas, WSQK radio graphics, embroidered sound waves, and inner artwork inspired by Robin’s shirt. Small touches like a Hawkins Hawk lace charm, a rubber chicken keychain, a Demogorgon star on the ankle patch, and a Hellfire Club name label make the pair feel like a collector’s item. It comes with two custom lace sets and an Upside Down license plate tag.

The Converse Weapon gets a new colorway based on the 1984 catalog. The shoe mixes premium leather with distressed layers for a vintage look. Inside, a newspaper-style liner and sock liner prints featuring Vecna and the Mind Flayer bring the dark tone of the show into the design. An Upside Down tongue label and themed lace jewels complete the pair. Fans can also customize a Stranger Things Chuck Taylor All Star through Converse By You.

Nike expands the lineup with apparel that feels straight out of Hawkins. A classic crewneck carries the “Friends Don’t Lie” quote, while T-shirts, hoodies, and sweatpants add more recognizable graphics. A tracksuit rounds out the release with an 80s athletic fit, tying the collection back to the era that defines the show.

The Stranger Things collection arrives globally on December 4 through Nike’s website, the Converse website, SNKRS, and select retailers. The tracksuit will be available only through JD Sports. The Dunk Low and the “Friends Don’t Lie” crew dropped earlier on November 6 through SNKRS and select stores.
