New twist to the classic

Converse Chuck Taylor has been around for decades, but they are reinventing themselves with the new All Star Double Tongue Plaid Ox Sneaker (see title link), which costs $49.99 at Famous Footwear. The Beluga/Chuck Pink shoe is perfect for preppy girls or grunge styles. The canvas upper features plaid, along with the usual rubber toe cap, and vulcanized midsole/outsole.

Take a Journey with Converse

I was at Journeys the other day to escape studying for exams, and I came across this Chuck Taylor All Star Print Sneaker. It's the Converse Lo Emo Dog Athletic Shoe in White and is just $49.99 (see title link), although I remember a time not too long ago when Converses were just $30. Amazing how these shoes are still cool after all these years. They've updated without changing and still have a great fan following. The canvas upper is classic.
