He haunted Seattle’s music scene, withdrawing into its grit and grime. He thought some of it made sense, but most of it didn’t. So he turned to the only thing he knew for sure: his music. Soon it became clear; the inspired songwriter with scruffy hair and stormy eyes had taken the underground grunge movement mainstream. Converse invokes Kurt Cobains spirit with these Kurt Cobain Black Chuck Taylore All Star Converse. These shoes feature a canvas upper with lyrics from “Come As You Are” and “Dumb”. Available now at Converse.com
First no one can really say how kurt would feel about the shoes unless u knew him personally im pretty sure no one so far including myself has even met him and if u did meet him that doesnt mean u know him no one really knows him except for the ones who were close to him and they are just shoes i dont get why people are freaking out like OMG THE SHOES THE SHOES THEY TOTALLY SELL OUT KURT the shoes have private thoughts but so do his song because the songs have his personal thoughts in them should we stop listen to them i think not so to everyone freaking out about THE SHOES you really need to relax 🙂
I dont really know what to say cuz i love nirvana and i love kurt more than words. But i would probably buy these shoes because i love him so much, they look cool, i hate that money is being made off Kurt in the wrong way, and if Courtney didnt kill him then fair enuf let her make money off him fs she has his kid who she has to support by herself c’mon. Although she sold to much of his stuff. It wud be so Kurt to not have died but escaped! he cud be somewhere right now eating grapes, he liked grapes 🙂
‘All Apoligies’ ur pretty much right dude. Altho why the fuck dus everyone hate courtney when they have no proof that she killed kurt… i dont think shes smarter than the police do u guys? they wuda gat in the super detectives or sumthing.
If Kurt was still alive, his fame wud be scarey… more music? more extreme awesomeness? I think he wud have retired if not killed himself, he wouldnt want to become more famous than he was becoming, everyone knows he started to hate it, he apreciated us as fans though. He would have went solo, apearing every now and again with Foo Fighters ect maybe… thatd be awesome. P.S dus anyone think Frances is hot? lol
METALLICA RULES!
… SO DOES NIRVANA!!
I think kurt probably wouldnt agree to these shoes being made,i should be doing my courswork, cuz he was such a rebelious guy and so anti-establishment but im pretty sure we’ll see these in the stores anyway no matter whose opinion. theres money to be made, this well definitely be sold. theres a huge market. its inevitable…
Well duh. If im ever sitting right beside u in sum sorta tech im gona slap u with a wet fish

– copy / paste from a same comment about the same shit –
This site supposed to be a site which RESPECTS Cobain’s memory, but let there be rock, let there be ca$h, let’s sell and sell and sell ’till his corpse is drained! How come a tribute site supports this kind of exploitation? These shoes are another PATHETIC example of cashing-in a dead’s man life, work and memory. This attitude is worse than the worst! It’s so disgusting I wanna throw up! Everything that Kurt HATED are now on sale by mega companies and bearing his name as a trademark. What the fuck man? What the fuck? The UTTER PATHETIC SHITTY ATTITUDE towards any person. Exploiting EVERYTHING for cash and in the same time pretending to pay respect to Kurt. Wake up people and DON’T be a part in this disgrace, they want your money ONLY, they are so glad Cobain’s dead so they can sell him more and more! WAKE THE FUCK UP people and have the DIGNITY not to be part in it or simply FUCK OFF, you are one of “themâ€!
ps: I was never a Nirvana fan, I just happent to repsect Cobain.
I just finished Heavier than Heaven. The story of Kurt Cobain. Highly recomended 🙂
I wouldn’t buy these shoes, you could just buy a regular pair of converse and deck them out the way you want. That’s what I do. I have a pair of converse that has Nirvana and Kurt stuff written all over them. Don’t waste your money supporting something that Kurt would be against.
que tiempos.Lo que me hizo sentir nirvana no lo logro otro grupo jamas.Lo del diario lo veo muy mal,una bajeza.Me encanta cuando veo a algunos chavales lleven algo referente a nirvana y demuestra que se recuerda a kurt y a nirvana.Me gusta que nueva generaciones sientan ,mas o menos,las letras y el sonido retorcido de su musica melodica destrozando guitarras .Jamas olvidare a kurt y sus letras que me hicieron llorar ,reir y volverme loco de euforia.Gracias nirvana,gracias kurt
DUDE,THERE FUCKING SHOES KURT WAS A GOD JUST BECAUSE SOMEBODY WANTS TO WERE SOME SHOES DOESNT MEAN THERE NOT PUNK ROCK SO FUCK U ATOM
LISTEN ATOM. stop saying bullshit. you dont know fucking shit stop wasting your mother fucking time. kay??!
Yes all of us are fucking sad that They still using Him to earn some shit. But what the fuck can we do about it? The best we can do is not buy them, that’s it! He loved scribbling stuff on his shoes and so you can scribble your own shit on your own shoes…my head aches as these fucked up ideas never die… have been a big fan of him ever since I heard him back in 1998. Love him even more as days go by…Leave him alone, he must be happy wherever he is…don’t make him pick up his telescope and look down on us…let him be…
Since i was like 8, I loved Nirvana. But it makes me wonder what kurt would think if he saw how we all say vulgar things to each other in his name? Look at this post>(just took this one randomly)

FUCK OFF ANNIE!AND YOU KNOW WHY?ALL OF US WHO LIKES NIRVANA AND WHO RESPECTS OUR LORD KURT ,WILL WEAR NIRVANA T-SHIRTS IN MEMORY OF THEM!IS THAT CLEAR? IF YOU DONT LIKE THAT-DISSAPEAR!
FUCK FACE
….I mean really people? Do you have to be like that? Why can’t we simply agree that kurt would not want any of this crap such as these stupid converse shoes….and that we, his loyal fans, stuck with him till the end and we still do. R.I.P Kurt….grunge 4 life.
“Wanting to be someone else, is a waste of the person you already are”. – Kurt Cobain
I think they dont sell them enymore in my country :(((((((
This is basically crap.
There’s nothing wrong with wearing Nirvana T-shirts, or Nirvana shoes, or whatever the fuck that says “Nirvana” on it. Same thing with their lyrics, and same thing with Kurt’s name, or face. But these are HIS thoughts, being published for no damn reason but making money (come on, Courtney, don’t do this!).
This is stupid as hell, and you know Kurt wouldn’t like this. Honor his memory, don’t be a victim of the media. This is exactly what Kurt said he was against.
So basically, if you buy this crap, you’re a lame ass poser who doesn’t get the message behind Kurt’s lyrics (and who seems to go deaf while watching him speak on a video).
This frustrates me. I wish I could do something about it, and I wish Kurt was still around to stop this.
Ugh. I could just cry right now.
This is just plain ass bullshit. Damn it.
