Pizza Chucks!
A winning combination of a favorite food with my favorite type of shoes! Should I not keep these sneakers in good shape, they’ll eventually turn into a pizza with mushrooms!

Italian Chucks!
I’ve been saving these shoes since my birthday, they were a present to myself because I can’t resist unique designs or garish colors. They have the tricolore often associated with the Italian flag and generic pizza boxes. When I finally wore them, Somara said, … Continue reading

Justice League 2
For my birthday I used the 15% off e-coupon from Converse to get myself two special pairs of Chucks. The super special set is reserved for October and below are a more impressive take on the current Justice League because … Continue reading
Duh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh…Bartman!
For 2014, Converse and The Simpsons rolled out two new, additional designs. To coincide with Batman’s 75th birthday comes Bartman, the pesky 10-year-old’s alter ego first seen in “Three Men and a Comic Book,” as he tried to get a discount to … Continue reading
Joker 3 in honor of Batman’s 75th
This pair was on clearance at Journeys. My guess is they’re clearing space for the next round of DC characters, JLA mainstays again. These are my favorite Jokers because they seem to follow the Marshall Rogers style. I also love the … Continue reading
To the rescue!
My friend’s daughter showing off the super heroine attire I gave her (the Chucks and shirt). It’s good to see girls feeling comfortable with being fans and promoting their heroines!
The latest adjustment for my shoe collection
Another Elfa sale at the Container Store, another pair of shelves, another reduction of space between shelves to accommodate my Chucks! As expected, I have more shoes than solution. I regret nothing! I do promise there will be a proper … Continue reading

Simpson Shoes III
This pair featuring America’s longest-running animated family was acquired last Summer but I never got around to lacing them up. Judging from the background, I didn’t photograph them neither. I love how they put the characters on the rubber part … Continue reading
Green Lantern 2
How I thank the Guardians of OA that Converse made another pair to represent the Emerald Knight! It was a tad embarrassing to have just the terrible movie version in my collection. These shoes have some nice touches as you’ll … Continue reading
A belated birthday to Elvira with her shoes!
Yesterday was Elvira’s birthday, it’s not nice to reveal a lady’s age, even when she is a Horror icon. To celebrate, I finally broke out the special Chucks Somara bought me for my birthday a couple months ago. These are … Continue reading
Teen Titans Go!
I’m grateful Converse went with the Aughts’ cartoon version since their new show is mediocre. The Titans’ 1980 incarnation with the Perez art would’ve better, but these were on sale, I couldn’t resist. They followed the Batman tradition by putting … Continue reading

I’m on a shoe Mr. J!
Mostly everyone’s favorite evil, crazy, lovesick henchman Harley Quinn stars on her own Converse Hi-Top Chuck. I’m not sure why Converse chose purple as a primary color when Harley’s costume uses red with black. The artwork is reminiscent of Alan Davis’s style. … Continue reading
