Some of you may be aware of a feature on the Converse website which allows you to customise and then order your very own totally unique pair of Chucks. Whether or not you can actually afford to buy the designs you create, you can have a lot of fun playing around with the colours and creating different designs. I recently decided to try and create a pair of the All Star Hi Double Upper Canvas style Chucks for each of The Avengers and Loki, based on their movie costumes. Some were fairly easy to create, Captain America for instance has a very distinctive look that happens to match almost perfectly with the patriotic patterns available on the customisation system, whereas characters like Black Widow who have fairly monotone costumes were trickier to work out.
Let me know what you think of these designs and which ones would you actually like to buy? I think my favourite is the Tony Stark/Iron Man pair although I have no idea what they would go with! If you have a go at designing your own Converse then please share the results with us too.
