New Chucks Have Arrived!

My black monochrome leather Chuck Taylors have arrived!

Black leather, black plastic/rubber, black laces. The only non-black of the shoes is the insert (normal white) and the grey letters that say "ALL*STAR" on the back (see pic below). The Converse symbol on the side of the shoe is made out of rubber. The soles do not have the felt-type material and is pure rubber.

I cannot wait until I get that nice worn-black leather color on the shoes that can only come from lots of wear. It may take a while since these will not be an everyday shoe.

New Chucks Ordered

Chinese New Year is February 14. Every Chinese New Year, I always get
a new pair of shoes. This year, I am getting a pair of all-black
leather Converse All-Stars.

I will still wear my normal pair, but I'm a little tired of the
smallest amount of precipitation completely soaking my feet. I know
these shoes are not waterproof, but the new pair of Chucks that I am
getting will be worn during wet weather.

Note: The picture is not of my black leather Chucks. Mine are in the
mail currently. Actual pics of mine to come later.
