Kurt Cobain Converse Collection

Kurt Cobain ConverseConverse has given Kurt Cobain his own signature collection of shoes. Now available and shipping worldwide at Converse.com, Converse is currently producing a limited-edition series of Kurt Cobain footwear as part of the company’s 100th anniversary sales campaign, dubbed “Welcome to the Converse Century.” Each shoe is littered with drawings and writings that were published in 2002’s Kurt Cobain Journals. Several new models of Kurt Cobain shoes are coming with the Converse One Star model and a series of high-top Chucks already confirmed, according to NirvanaClub.com.

Distressed in the way Kurt Cobain wore them, the shoes provide a rarely seen glimpse into the head of this musical and lyrical genius with sketches that display his hopes, dreams and lyrics from amazing songs such as Come As You Are.

To further pay tribute to the late singer, three of the Converse shoes that Cobain was often seen wearing will be reflected in the new collection which includes versions of Chuck Taylor All Star, Jack Purcell and One Star shoes. To make the collection even more unique, they’ll have wear and fray detailing and Kurt Cobain’s signature subtly embroidered on the shoe’s outer.The shoes will be made available in black and white versions and should retail for around $50 – $65. The product line comes with the full cooperation of Courtney Love and the Estate of Kurt Cobain. Converse will release the full details of the shoes in April.

  1. i think he would have hated this idea and i agree if u realy wanna show ur a true fan jusst write the fucking lyrics on the shoes and the shoes are better when there all old and beat up.

    peace&love

  2. how much do they want for them…?
    because we might have to pass a basket.
    or ask some one personally if they
    will buy them for us

  3. I believe all the people freaking out and calling people who buy these shoes posers need to just stop. Everyone is gonna honor his memory differently and the journal entries were a bit much but those who care enough top get a real glimpse at a amazing mans life should not be judged, and courtney love is probably trying to keep money for her daughter [also the daughter of kurt, so have respect u dicks] and her drugs, something her and kurt did together! I like the shoes and they could have done worse i think.

  4. Look, none of this shit has to do with Kurdts personal life. Even if it says Courtney Love, he was in love with her and he had a kid with her… don’t get me wrong i hate her, but he loved her with his heart… so you little queer bates need to shut the fuck up and think of how Kurt would have felt about this. So don’t think of this as anything BUT a pair of shoes made for the memory of a beloved legend. I hope you read what i wrote cause i fucking LOVE Kurt Cobain. RIP Kurt Donald Cobain, You are dearly missed.

  5. Although i was unborn when kurt doped up n blew his brains out. i have studied him for a couple of years and i must say that it would be an honor to wear these shoes of “The Elvis of Our Time” on my feet………….R.I.P.

  6. I have been a fan of Kurt’s even before Nirvana became well known. I think it is very disrespectful by the exploitation of his writings and music to be put on shoes! What next Cobain underwear? To those of you who say you are fans and want them, maybe you better think about if you really are a fan of him, or the mockery made of his legacy and all of the money-greed based that has gone on since 1994. By the way is this meant to honor his murder/suicide? WTF!?! I used to like Converse, but now I am personally boycotting Converse. Nobody leave me alone in a Converse store I will destroy there shoes! At least maybe the money could go to Francis Bean…or better yet in a trust fund that only she can touch when she is old enough…Keep the money away from Courtney the exploitation, foul mouthed, shitty singing wanna be…(refering to L7)Well I could say more, but what is the point the greedy retards who want more money will stop when we all rise and say screw you at the same time by not supporting their habits(Meaning do not buy things that disrespect those that have passed on) Peace to all and may the dumb asses learn from there mistakes!

  7. Today is the 15 annivesary of Kurt Cobains death. It still to me seems like yeterday. I guess I really miss him…I can relate with him much…I also think he was bipolar. Yet the way thigs were handled with his death it seems very suspicous. Yet don’t believe everything you read, hear and sometimes even see!For all we know maybe he is really still alive and his death was staged so he could get out of the lime light…that sounds a bit out there…but maybe…by the way i think I saw Elvis at a Burger King in TN. Majority of his songs had refrence to suicide and or depression, yet, could he really Not have reached the trigger on the shotgun?…also wouldn’t a shot gun produce a sprayed effect…sorry to be so graphic , and I am no gun expert but just think about it…don’t gun shot shells have little pellets in them or am I mistaken…also why would anyone leave their drivers license out? Unless he was worried he ould not be identified by the shooting…Who knows in a severely depressed state one does not think rationally! If anything Converse should releaseshoes with Anti-suicide related meaning, and maybe even ones hinting a reinvestigation. The song lyrics are fine, but I still think the note books/journals goes too far. By the way yesterday the 5th is the traditional coroners report date, but some have said that they talked to him on the 6th. Anyway …peace, love, and never give up…to everyone! As John Lennon said ‘There are no problems, only solutions.’ However suiide is Not a soluion it is running away.

  8. this is so fucking stupid this pisses me off kurt hated commercialism and that its just an insult to put his name on a commercialized shoe, any one who buys these shoes is not a nirvana fan

  9. Considering that he wrote ‘Endorsement’ on the toe cap of his own pair of All Stars I couldn’t see him hating this too much, though being Kurt he’d probably complain about it all the same.

  10. Its weird to see kurt cobains shoes here, you might think its wrong to buy them, but the truth is Kurt cobain would love to buy sex pistols shoes or jimi hendrix shoes, think about that!! this is made for his fans. And nirvana fans.If you buy them then it’s just because you love then so much and fallow their music. you are so proud to wear them. Come on Kurt was an artist , nobody will forget that!! this is cool, and not wrong to buy, you should be happy you can buy stuff like that

  11. anyone who hates these are queer kurt cobain is a god he was a complete stud but only put his name and maybe the nirvana symbol and that would be bad ass!!!!!!!!!!!!
