Stock Up On Yr All Stars

Nike is buying Converse and all I gotta say is, I’m stocking up. Fuck sweatshop All Stars. [Thanks to Laura for bringing it to my attention]

  1. that’s just wrong. I don’t understand how Converse could have ever gone (or begun to go) bankrupt at any time since everyone and their mom wears ‘em. but then I guess those things don’t make a whole lot of sense anyway. it looks like I’ll need to get some more as well (and looking at my current pair, yup)…the second best shoes in the world…

    here I am commenting about clothes again. intelligent conversation, I know.

  2. My mom does not wear them. Neither does my dad for that matter. I dunno if I remember the number correctly, but I vaguely remember reading that all stars accounted for something like 30% of their business, which is a lot.
