They used to be the preferred shoe of the rebellious type, but now they are everywhere. Go to any mall (bah!) and look around, all you see are a bunch of teeny-boppers walking around in them screaming "Like, OMIGOD!, No WAY!!!." Emo losers ghetto thug wannabees and pop-punk posers wear em as well. Nike made a great profit move by buying converse and pumping the suburbs and shopping mall brats full of them. I have 2 pairs of them which I have not worn for well over a year now. Thanks nike for destroying an icon of rebellion and telling everyone that they need them to survive because you have no original product ideas of your own so you have to steal sub culture identities to shell out to rich white kids. :mad: |
nike ownes converse?? oh f**k, ive spent over 20 years wearing my beloved converse, noow that nike own them i dont know what to do..i know, i'll carry on wearing them! as for buying any more, well nike buying converse would account for their price hike. |

you think avril pixie face's guitarist is bad, in britain kids tv presenters wear ramones t-shirts, its because the ramones are on scooby doo (the shaggy/scooby chase scene bit), it made me sit and watch with my kid! (and no scrappy doo!!!!!!!!!!!) |
