    Anybody got a Converse shoe?

    Just received a red Converse hi-top (left foot, size 1) to promote the line. I wonder if they made dozens of left shoes for this promo or if someone in Winnipeg has the mate to our shoe.

    I'd have been more impressed if they gave us a pair for each member of our staff to wear while working. We'd be the most stylin' office in town.

    Still better than the 5 foot high picture of P. Diddy with a toothpick in his mouth.

    Down here we get them from REM. I have a black shoe left foot. I wouldn't wear them if they paid me.

    Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars

    black high tops...in mid 60's were about the only thing going...and we were happy

    then I was seduced by the white Addidas with the green stripes during the 68 Olympics.

    its been all down hill since then!
