So if you're on the design blogs lately you might have noticed a :
"Niemeyer has created a collection of sneakers and slip-ons for American shoe company Converse"
Ok so let me rephrase that. Oscar Niemeyer who is 104 and hospitalized twice this year has actually designed shoes for Converse ?
The man barely walks, is practically ill, and they want us to think he has time to jiggle around Converse the shoe maker firm for some shoe designs !
Where have we reached with the globalization / commercialization the creation of Icons to make fortunes out of them !?
#ontheborderline of unethical
(on a different note ) Below are some of the converse shoe designs that I find absolutely amazing
Above: Skid Grip Oxford
