Since Nike iD was successful, Converse has decided to do it’s own which is called Converse One. You are able to chose from the Chuck Taylor low or the high as your base shoe. The design program is the same as the Nike iD so those who have used the Nike iD program will be familiar with the set up. There are a lot of colors and styles to chose from. Also Converse ships to international destinations as long as you have a US credit card.

I just received my Sneakers: The Complete Collector’s Guide from Amazon. My first impression out of the box was that the hardcover had a nice and soft puffy feeling to it. The book starts off with an introduction of the various sneakers and some history about sneakers. As I flipped over some more pages, I discovered that this book was really a “complete sneaker guide”. It covers all sneaker models with history for each sneaker and it’s released date. Not to mention, it has great pictures of each shoe as well! This book was definitely worth the money!

You probably know what this shoe is already but Essense has some great new pictures of this Nike x Mr. Cartoon 2 Air Force 1 “Cinco De Mayo”. Like the Cinco De Mayo Dunk, this Air Force 1 is also inspired by the Mexician theme. The use of patent leather and the nicely embroided LA makes this shoe something to be desired for.
