chrome sneakers?

so i guess chrome is making it's way into the cycling sneaker market

chuck-vs-chrome
 (via superb)
looks like they took the silhouette of converse chucks and dubbed it the kursk (low), midway (mid), saipan (hi-top), and arhem (chukka) however, instead of canvas it's 1000d cordura. a "propulsion plate", polyurethane slam pad, proper ventilation, 3m heel patch, lace garage, and steel aglets (that's the tip of the shoelace. i learned that watching beakmans world). now as technical as sounds, all it means is that it's stiff, comfortable, and durable. being a recovering sneaker addict and in need of a better shoe, i think i'll scoop a pair. it looks promising
