Lupe Fiasco x Product [RED] Converse
About a month ago, Supertouch blogged about Dr. Romanelli’s 1Hund[RED] Artists shoe launch with Converse out in LA. Romanelli’s #1 fan Lupe Fiasco was there to provide the entertainment, and there was a quick internet blip mentioning his shoes: patent leather Chucks built under the Product [RED] platform. We got our hands on a pair, and although they’re not scheduled to release, enough buzz could bring ‘em into the marketplace. Get those comments going, and get these shits made! More photos after the jump.

how you going to make RED product which is tied to a charity & then NOT LET ANYONE BUY IT! “here some cool shoes that would help donate toward AIDS research, but NAH we aint gona put them out for the public. that would be silly.”
one of the only times Chucks catch my interest & you deny me. GET EM OUT CONVERSE. they will be huge.

Daaamn, I gotta agree with my homie up here. If you want people to buy your stuff to help AIDS research, why not sending them out??? That’s non sense… I don’t like chucks very much too, but I’d definitelly buy those…

Man these are hot!!!! They need to make these public! If they don’t then they are dumb this could really help get funds overseas to help those in Africa who really need help. And the funny part is I HATE CHUCKS but these are the shit real talk! CHI-TOWN

These Lupe Fiasco x Converse Product [RED] shoes are SUPER SUPER HOT!!! And these shoes is a MUST I Repeat MUST be Release. These Could be one of the most HYPE plus Unique Product [RED] Converse Shoes made. First of, Product [RED] Line Contributions to the Global Fund Charity and National Commission for the Fight Against HIV/AIDS. Product [RED] Money is at work as part of Global Fund grants in Rwanda, Swaziland and Ghana funding programs with a primary focus on the health of women and children. Thanks! to PRODUCERS of Product [RED] - ARTISTS Like “Lupe Fiasco” and most important the BUYERS!!!! Charity has Improved. So why not make some DOPE Converse kicks that would raise lots of money for this charity and also would keep helping this contribution and yet not release them. SO WHY NOT RELEASE THEM!!! (Makes no Sense) Converse Product [RED] Line got to Release these… I personally wear and love converse, and these are IT. This would bring ALL Sneaker Heads- Shoe Collectors Plus Converse LOVERS Like myself all for one good cause.

YOU HAVE TO TAKE THESE TO THE MARKET!!! This will be the fly touch that’s missing in the Product (RED) Chuck Taylor collection. If they’re too expensive to make for the Product (RED) do it anyway! And you know why? Because you can charge a hell of a lotta money for theses and they’ll still get sold out in a week!!! Plus you’ll introduce a whole new group of people (who are more serious about their clothing) to the project. LET’S MAKE EVERYBODY CONTRIBUTE TO CHARITY AND LET’S DO IT NOW!!!
