Tennis icon Serena Williams stole the spotlight with a surprise appearance during Kendrick Lamar’s electrifying Super Bowl LIX halftime show, executing a flawless Crip Walk in style. Williams, known for her dominance on the court, made waves on the stage, sporting a striking ensemble and a never-before-seen pair of A Ma Maniére x Converse Chuck 70s in a sleek blue colorway.
Dressed in a white crop top, royal blue pleated skirt, and a matching jacket, Serena seamlessly blended sporty elegance with street style. However, it was her exclusive sneakers that caught sneakerheads’ attention. The light blue Converse Chuck 70s featured subtle A Ma Maniére branding on the left tongue, Nike on the right, and a discreet Swoosh on the sides, possibly teasing an upcoming release.
Serena’s footwear choice is a nod to A Ma Maniére’s “While You Were Sleeping” collaboration with Nike. This major project marked Nike’s most significant partnership since the late Virgil Abloh.
