    Those look awesome, but I couldn't do those to my chucks... At least at the moment. And the thing with the seam ripper... I would've never thought of that in a million years.

    I've noticed that you use a lot of spray paint, what is the best way to get the stink of the paint out of your shoes or other clothing? Is there a certain brand that is better than others?

    This is cool. Take a pair of Chuck T's and totally put my own flair to them. Scraping the side walk to rough them up makes it so easy.
    Great video!

    Thanks for the ideas. Really helped a lot. Hope youll feature more of customizing shoes, aside from chucks we all can try to plain slip on shoe i guess?
    On the photo, I used replica of chuck taylor that cost 12 Canadian $ or so.

    aMaZiNG!!! I did this with my cons but in my own way and they are not the hightops but they still rock!

  • Joo wrote on December 9, 3:51 pm

    I have some high-top converse that I have, and I hate the color of it: its pink

    yuck

    How could you change the color of it? I have some glow in the dark fabric paint, bleach pens, and some more stuff I can't think of right now; thanks

  • ladyjulianne wrote in reply on December 22, 1:37 pm

    Fabric dye, of course! Dylon Shoe & Accessories Colour will do the canvas on Cons.

  • rootbier wrote on January 18, 8:25 am

    i am going to have to second the whole "converse is owned by nike - nike are giant pricks" thing and reminded you all that there is nothing cool about being a giant prick or supporting giant pricks
