Converse might have a chance to sign LeBron….LeBron Jr. that is.
Misleading…perhaps…interesting…for sure. Okay, so it’s been a long week at school so I though I’d take a lighter tone for Friday’s post. Here a few pics I got from Yahoo.com of LeBron’s Bike-a-Thon. Now I am not exactly sure what LeBron is doing, but LeBron Jr. seems to be having a ball. That probably has a lot do with the fact that he’s wearing some high top Chucks. You can see them much better in the second picture. So maybe someday when LeBron Jr. is old enough to hoop for cash, he can take the court in the Star and Chevron of Converse. (More …)

Dominic James’ search for employment.
I love sports drafts, fantasy football drafts, and rough drafts. For fans of sports drafts, June is the most wonderful time of the year. In June you have the MLB, NHL, and NBA drafts. While I enjoyed watching the MLB draft and I look forward to the NHL draft, it’s all about the NBA draft for me. (More …)

These are pictures from All Star weekend featuring Danny Granger of the Pacers wearing the classic black core colorway of the Converse All Stars. This was pretty fitting as Granger was making his first All Star game appearance. I got these pictures from yahoo/Getty Images. (More …)

Kirk Hinrich returns in the Converse 0100.
Finally it happened the other night. I’ve been waiting since the summer Olympics to see the Converse 0100 on the feet of some NBA players. When Kirk Hinrich returned to the Bulls line up the other night he did it in a pair of Converse 0100. Personally this is my favorite Converse shoe to come out in quite awhile. If you haven’t tried on a pair of these yet then you’re really missing out. Hit up Eastbay, Finishline, or Converse.com for some deeply reduced prices. Kirk is rocking a White/Black/Red PE edition of one the cleanest shoes I’ve ever seen. (More …)
