Tyler, the Creator cuts his Converse boot down to a $130 low-top

Tyler, the Creator is taking his Converse workwear boot down to the ankle. The rapper and designer and the Nike-owned footwear brand on Tuesday unveiled the Bronco Boot Low, a low-top version of the 1908 Bronco Boot he debuted last year, WWD reported. It leads a new collection of eight pairs that launches globally on Nov. 12 on the Converse and Golf le Fleur websites, timed for the start of holiday shopping.

The release shows how a nearly decade-old celebrity partnership keeps finding new product. Converse and Tyler have worked together since 2017, when the deal began under his Golf le Fleur banner and reworked icons such as the One Star and Chuck 70. In 2025 the pair launched the 1908 program, which draws on more than 115 years of Converse design history and uses the archive as raw material for new styles. The Bronco Boot Low is the latest product of that approach, and it arrives only weeks after Converse and Tyler added four colorways to his Pro Leather in October.

The shoe keeps the trail-ready hardware of the original boot. It has suede and leather uppers, a molded rubber toe cap, a lugged welted outsole and a rubber rand above the welt for durability, according to WWD. Tyler's touches show up in the custom woven round laces, a le Fleur lace jewel clipped to the bottom eyelet and a co-branded sockliner. Hypebeast reported that the design draws most directly on Converse's 1990s Mud Chunk, a sneaker-boot hybrid with a molded rubber vamp, a split upper and an aggressive lugged sole. The boot comes in four colorways, Cocoa Brown, New Wheat, Eden and Black.

Pricing positions the low-top as the top of the drop. The Bronco Boot Low costs $130, the Jogger $105 and the Pro Leather $95, according to the sneaker site House of Heat, which listed eight pairs in total arriving Nov. 12. Hypebeast listed the retail price as still to be confirmed at the time of its report.

The rest of the collection is built around suede. Two new Pro Leather pairs swap the usual smooth finish for suede while keeping Tyler's exaggerated proportions, with a wide toe box, extra-large eyelet rows, thick laces and an embossed star stamped into the toe cap. The Tendril colorway sets lavender overlays against a gray suede base, and Quarry pairs olive suede with a sky-blue Star Chevron. The shape traces back to 1976, when the original Pro Leather moved Converse basketball from canvas to a full-grain leather upper and became the first of its leather basketball shoes to wear the Star Chevron, Hypebeast noted.

The Jogger completes the lineup in two single-color versions, High Risk Red and Golden Haze. Shaggy, vintage-style suede overlays wrap the toe, eyestay and heel over nylon panels, and a foam midsole and sawtooth rubber outsole keep the profile low. Golf le Fleur branding appears on both side panels and the sockliner, with a woven Converse label on the tongue. The Jogger was first released in 1976 during the recreational running boom and returned to the Converse lineup in 2025.

For Converse, the strategy is straightforward. Rather than chase new silhouettes, it is mining its own back catalog and letting one of music's most influential dressers decide what to bring back and how. A rugged, lower-cut boot in earth tones and suede also gives the partnership a cold-weather product to sell alongside its sneakers, at a price below many designer boots.

For Tyler, the release extends a run in which Golf le Fleur has become as much a fashion label as a merchandise line. The real test comes on Nov. 12, when the eight pairs go on sale and shoppers decide whether a low-top boot can carry the same pull as the shoes that built the partnership.
