You’d have to know that the Chinese Year of the Snake, which starts on February 10, would be the perfect excuse for designers to get down with some snakeskin prints. Which is perhaps why we’re starting to see the print everywhere, including this one unexpected place: the Converse shop.
includes some really fabulous styles for both women and men in the
Converse “Premium” category. In other words, $100 sneakers. But what
awesome $100 sneakers they are.
The
pricey ones are real snakeskin on a leather upper (I’m crushing on the
tawny brown high top at top), or you can find a $75 canvas version with
the flocking on the textile–the one at bottom happens to be Kristen’s
favorite. They even come packaged in a nice, shiny red shoe bag, for
extra good luck. Hey, maybe you’ll find a hundred dollar bill in your
old coat so you can pay for them! That would be good luck. –Liz
