Comic Couture | DC Comics and Converse create superhero shoes
Batman Converse
DC Comics and Converse have teamed up to create a line of shoes featuring Batman, Superman and Green Lantern. The shoes debuted over the weekend and could be found on the feet of the crew working the DC booth at Comic-Con International.
“Part of a promotional effort with our friends at Converse, the shoes merge two of my favorite things — a pair of snazzy Chuck Taylor’s and comics,” said Alex Segura, who runs DC’s The Source blog. “Don’t take my word for it, though. Our very own James Robinson was among the creators showing off his new kicks at a signing hosted by Converse at the Horton Plaza Journeys store in San Diego yesterday.”
The shoes are available at any Journeys store or online.

Does anyone know if there’s any Journeys stores in England? I want some so bad but I don’t want to pay stupid money to get them shipped.

At least these shoes look better than those ones from the 80′s.
