Love Letter to Converse All Stars

Did you know that Converse has come out with a Dr. Suess line of Chuck Taylors?

They are Awesome, Yes.

I mean, we know that they're the sexy geeks of the shoe world already, right?

I mean, they inspire greatness! My favorite Random Colorful Stuff icons are always the hightops...they go places.

(check it out, she's got fanart shoes! SHESSHOUMARU!)
[Also, wow. Some of those shoes she's designed and are in stores. Definitely on the Kawaii line of things...]

Just incidentally, today's Thing You Don't Know About me is that I have an uncle who is a shoe designer for Converse. I don't know that he's ever done a Chuck Taylor design, but he could have.
Wish I got to hang out with him more, actually: the last two times we visited before he and my aunt divorced we had some fun conversations. Like about how he got conscripted to design a paintballing course. And proceeded to do so in an equally artistic and engineering manner.
