ADER ERROR x Converse Ready Third Collaboration Featuring Reinterpreted Wave Trainer

Summary

ADER ERROR and Converse have revealed their third collaboration
The collab features a new Wave Trainer model, along with apparel and accessories
Launching June 26, the collection will also be available via HBX starting June 27, 2025

Following two successful collaborations, ADER ERROR reunites with Converse for a third collection — this time spotlighting the Wave Trainer silhouette along with select apparel styles. Under the theme “Re-found,” the collection breathes new life into heritage designs, presenting a “New Classic” that bridges archival influence with forward-thinking aesthetics.

The Wave Trainer is the hero product of this collaboration. Doused in ADER ERROR’s emblematic blue color, the sneaker boasts curved design elements and a dynamic blend of materials. The mesh upper is layered with cowhide, suede and shaggy suede, creating a retro yet unique mood. Additional design features include an asymmetrical leather detail on the heel with a knotted string, allowing for a detachable cover that offers two distinct styling options. A dubrae inspired by ADER ERROR’s Tetris logo, along with custom-developed eyelets and hand-painted midsole further embody the brand’s experimental spirit.

The collaboration extends into lifestyle territory with a capsule of apparel and accessories, including a blazer jacket, a graphic T-shirt and a cap. The pieces follow an understated color palette, all imbued touches of cobalt blue that nod to ADER ERROR’s signature.

Retailing between ₩59,000 and ₩189,000 KRW (approx. $43 – $139 USD), the collection will pre-release via ADER ERROR’s webstore on June 26. Following this, the pieces will be available to shop through Converse as well as ADER ERROR’s offline store. From June 27, the collection will also be released through global retailers like HBX.
