New Chucks for May 2020, part 3
Nothing but the Converse “All * Star” logo all over the place. Hard to believe these were on clearance.
New Chucks for May 2020, part 2
This pair falls under a design group Converse chose to call Animal Prints. As you can see, the shoes are supposed to resemble fish scales but it’s just printed into the canvas. Pretty cool in my opinion.
New Chucks for May 2020, part 1
Damned Converse and their 20% Off Sale in April. They knew May was going to be a three-paycheck month. On the upside, the 20% was in addition to shoes already marked on sale or clearance. I ended up making my … Continue reading
Frozen II Chucks arrive!
Frozen is one of the weakest animated movies Disney has made in a long time because the story isn’t terribly interesting, original nor worthy of repeat viewings. The music is even worse, “The Let It Go” song is sooooooo shitty … Continue reading
My new Hello Kitty Chucks
Somara gave me the green light to buy these limited edition Chucks from Converse.com as a birthday present to myself. I should’ve acted faster since my size (US 11 Men) were already gone when I bought them; I can handle … Continue reading
A Hawaiian shirt for my feet!
To celebrate the end of two debts in our lives, I went to the Converse Store at the Round Rock Outlet Mall (or whatever it’s called) to see if I could find something spectacular. Yes! I was thrilled to find … Continue reading
Black patent leather Chucks!
Somara scored these super-fancy Chucks via Men’s Wearhouse of all places. Better yet, they were only $25! They were on clearance. Usually it’s me buying the shoes. They’re very, very shiny so I need to wear them sparingly, like with … Continue reading
Now these are noticeable Chucks!
Converse put out a new series of gunmetal-like shoes but they’re in colors instead of the traditional “metal” colors gold and silver. They definitely stood out from the compliments I received walking around in them.

These Chucks are no surprise for my collection
The Time Warner Empire’s division for Looney Tunes has licensed a few designs to be used by Converse. Obviously I had to have the Bugs Bunny pair! I loved them so much I have two pairs.
Green Arrow Chucks!
It’s not quite the look or version of Green Arrow I like, aka the Neal Adams style, but I highly down the Robin Hood of Seattle/Starling City will get his likeness on shoes again for I scored these on clearance. … Continue reading
Hey Mr. J, I’m on some new shoes!
I always prefer the original character design by Bruce Timm and Paul Dini. The sexualized one DC shifted to in 2011, video games and the horrendous Suicide Squad movie is just lame. I’m no prude, I just think it was a … Continue reading
Moon Chucks
I really wanted the unicorn design from Journeys but they didn’t carry them in my size, what a shock. This cool alternative with the moon and clouds which is pretty bitchin’.

A unicorn crapped on these shoes!
A recent acquisition from the Converse Store to replace the florescent yellow (or green) pair I had to pitch.
New “surfer” Chucks
They seemed to resemble the pattern on a station wagon, surfboard or the long-legged shorts you’d see on the beach.
My Simpsons Chucks with autographs!
It’s late and I figure few of you will want to read about the forum my friend Aaron and I attended for ATX Television Festival regarding the Evolution of the Simpsons. However, I managed to have the great fortune of … Continue reading
