Converse releases Kurt Cobain shoe line

Feeling like your grunge-music-tribute flannel shirts no longer have the same oomph they once did? Well, fret no more: Converse has come out with an entire line dedicated to the late, great Kurt Cobain, who was famously wearing the brand when he committed suicide in 1994.
The shoes feature artwork borrowed from the personal notebooks of the Nirvana frontman. “Distressed in the way Kurt Cobain wore them, the shoes display his hopes, dreams and lyrics from amazing songs such as ‘Come As You Are,’ ” the press release reads.
And to avoid an inevitable legal skirmish, Courtney Love, Kurt’s widow, has personally reviewed and approved all of the designs. The shoes will be available this May, but you can get your first look at the line after the jump!
