I'm not trying to swerve out of my lane and claim to be that sneaker dude like, say the homie Dallas Penn.
And I haven't rocked these since like '88.
Lupe Fiasco can rhyme his ass off, but I'm not really a fan of his.
But cot-damn! I need a pair of these in my life.
The Lupe Fiasco x Product Red Converse Chuck Taylors is f.i.y.a.h!
$100.00 if you can catch 'em.

They look really nice but I kinda like Chucks cos they are not flashy and go with everything! These you gotta put a whole look together to rock them right.
ReplyDeleteProduct Red = Money goes to charity?
ReplyDeleteOr money goes to Bono and he gives it out to folks?
I agree with ian. I like my Chucks with a little less gloss.
ReplyDeleteOne of things I like about Chucks is that even when they get a bit run down, they still look great.
Not sure if it would work with this pair.
Patent leather sneakers.......hmmmm
ReplyDeleteThere's another pair that Lupe designed coming out this year I think - the Converse Spring 09 collection had a bunch of celebrity designers. The Pink Floyd 'Dark Side Of The Moon' joints are dope as is the Ozzy Osbourne straitjacket Chuck Taylor...
ReplyDeleteHoly shit i hope what Keyboard K said above is a mistake. Pink Floyd?? I would've thought they'd have more taste than to cash in so blatantly on their legacy. Say it isn't so!
ReplyDeleteoH, the lupe fiasco sneakers look ok. But i wouldn't wear them.
you've been in the industry, so talk the truth- is this Lupe kid L.A. Reid or Quincy J's illigimate kid or something? How did he get on?
ReplyDeletewhen i first saw it about 7 months ago, i thought iyt was the greatest pair of CHucks yet. Boothe opened up a whole new can of worms getting it to match. I rock Red & Black a lot but don't think i could get away with wearing these everyday like regular chucks.
