Converse Gone Cookoo?



Nah, not a chance.

From what theblagg can figure out, one of our favourite culture brands Converse has not gone completely bananas. Yes we know skkkrippers need love too but Chuck Taylors on clear heels?

Get outta here!

Everyone's favourite singing tranny with thighs that rival Shaka Zulu's is the one rocking this insane version of Chucks. Necole Bitchie tells us CiCi was wearing these on the set of her new video for a song called Gimme Dat.




Tjoweee.

If Converse designers are reading this please take note: WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO CREATE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. EVER.

Guess Not


Chuck Taylor All Stars, or Converse All Stars also referred to as "Chucks" are canvas and rubber sneakers which were first produced in 1917. Fast forward to 2009, Guess releases the exact same design as their "new sneaker". This puts Guess in a long list of Chuck Taylor biters, they get no love from me. After brands like Levis, Soviet and Fila also having their go at the plagiarism of All Stars, you would think that Guess would have the dignity or at least the common sense not to attempt to go down the same road. Guess again, it seems the All Star bandwagon just got another passenger.
