Smashing sneaks

As a lover of Super Smash Bros. and Converse sneakers (which my wide beastly feet can’t actually fit in…) I’m ridiculously excited about these beauties:

This is just the first in (what I hope to be) a long line of sweet sweet footwear by Cole Ranze of Delaware River Valley, Pennsylvania. He recently launched the blog All-Star Custom Kicks, where he’ll be featuring his work in the future.

A recent graduate from the Industrial Design program at the Rochester Institute of Technology, Cole dabbles in several different trades, including screen printing, blacksmithing and toy design.

Blacksmithing?! I’m should commission Cole to make me a freakin’ sword.

As is to be expected, the sneaks don’t come cheap. The current highest bid on eBay is $255 and that price is only going to go up over the next few days.

    So sweet! Maybe I can find this kid at his house, it sounds like he lives near me.

    Show up at his house! Haha. That’d be really creepy, but I’d be amused :)
