Kurt Cobain Converse

Notice the subtle dirt marks... totally Cobain

Converse are about to release a very special collection of shoes, inspired by Kurt Cobain and sanctioned by Courtney Love and the Cobain estate. In this world exclusive, the NFC will bring you the first high resolution pictures ever published of the shoes and the first description of what the collection offers.

To honor Cobain, in May, Converse will debut their Kurt Cobain collection of shoes featuring artwork and scribbles borrowed from Cobain's personal notebooks. It will mark a central part of the year-long 100th Anniversary 'Welcome to the Converse Century' celebration.

"Distressed in the way Kurt Cobain wore them, the shoes provide a rarely seen glimpse into the head of this musical and lyrical genius with sketches that display his hopes, dreams and lyrics from amazing songs such as Come As You Are."

To further pay tribute to the late singer, three of the Converse shoes that Cobain was often seen wearing will be reflected in the new collection which includes versions of Chuck Taylor All Star, Jack Purcell and One Star shoes. To make the collection even more unique, they'll have wear and fray detailing and Kurt Cobain's signature subtly embroidered on the shoe's outer.

The shoes will be made available in black and white versions and should retail for around $50 - $65.

Totally what I think. It's really disrespectful to the guy. And yes, Cantanky, it is extremely likely that his ex wife is behind this.

Of course we all know what a whore Courtney is, but it still amazes one to see the depths to which she'll plummet. Kurt must certainly be rolling in his grave over this disgusting merchandizing. Just about the opposite of everything he believed in.

ZEROpumpkins · 03.17.2008, 03:10 AM

Mmm (Agreement)

Cantankerous · 03.17.2008, 03:21 AM

i think it goes without saying that she's milking his fortune for all it's worth
i mean you can see that if you look at how bad she's fucked her face up

I don't understand the appeal of pre-faded/dirty/ripped clothing. How lazy can you be when being too lazy not buy new, undamaged clothing is not enough?

ALIEN ANAL · 03.17.2008, 04:05 AM

yeh i dont get it either

just buy new ones and throw them on the ground for 5 minutes

ZEROpumpkins · 03.17.2008, 04:32 AM
