A brand new site with a skateboard oriented blog and the announcement of Nick Trapasso as a new rider for the team – Converse is getting really serious again about it’s involvement in skateboarding. Not that they weren’t serious but this is an obvious move in the marketing department to let us potential buyers and shoe wearers know that Converse is part of skateboarding.
The Converse team already has some serious skill under it’s belt including Raymond Molinar, Sammy Baca, Ethan Fowler and Anthony Pappalardo. And the new 2009 line of shoes is looking pretty good…
A new friend to the Bat-Blog, named KEN, sent us these amazing photos of some custom art he recently did. And when I say amazing I actually mean extremely freakin' cool! Ken took some plain boring white-canvas-style Converse Sneakers & made these shoes true works of ART! One shoe has graphics drawn all over it of The Joker while the other shoe is Harley Quinn. Check out the pics, they're pretty neat, huh. I wanna thank Ken for sending these awesome photos & I know he has an amazing Batman Toy Collection so I hope he sends some pics of those too ( Ken - hint, hint ). But seriously Ken, you did a great job on these! Nice coloring, sharp lines, they're just totally unique & clever! OK, as always I wanna extend an invitation to ALL Bat-Blog Readers who have any kind of info or pics that are Batman-related to please send them to us. Sharing the love of the character, doing fun art, & toy collecting is what this page is all about!
