The Converse Blog: Unknown Basketball Shoe

Recently while searching at TaoBao.com I came across a few pictures of a new basketball shoe from Converse. I don't know if these are sample for shoes coming out in the future or shoes that were never produced. Either way, I found two different colorways and wanted to share them with you today. The auctions for these shoes can be found here and here.





















Sometimes when I look at these sneakers I see portions of the Wade 3.0, especially in the white/black/red colorway. Maybe it's the placing of the logo or the blocking with the with colors. You can see on both shoes a fever strong looking outrigger which appears on nearly every Converse basketball shoe now. I really enjoy this feature as it speaks the craftsmanship put into the shoes. Hopefully we'll know about these soon.

I got to thinking the other day about some of the interesting stories I have about me and my Converse. So I want to hear from all of you. Your first pair of Chucks, the first time someone gave you a compliment on your Converse kicks. So send in your stories and I'll post them on here.

Don't forget to vote in poll and help spread the word about the blog! Thanks, James
