They had a green striped inner, and a sketched urban scene on the outer heel. Kind of dark turquoise, pine green toned. Not sure what version. Great story behind them too, I got them in India, couldn't find any shoes in my size, the owner took one look at my dusty feet and brought back the exact size. They lasted me years and years, through monsoons, dust storms, mud, different countries etc. etc. I was so sad when they finally fell apart. i loved those shoes to bits.
Only have this photo with them, it seems.

i’ve had my current pair for two years (i think?) and at this point they’re completely trashed. for the first year i wore them almost every day, and it shows. quite literally busting at the seams. the pic doesn’t even show the full extent of the damage. when i bend my foot, the fabric rips. there are knots in the laces that cannot be undone. the soles are so worn down that i can feel every little pebble on the ground as i walk. terrible arch support, but i don’t care. i love my converse :)

kind of a controversial statement shoe but I wore these converse nearly every day—partly to spice up my otherwise plain outfits, but mostly to give me a nice daily height boost. even though they’re huge, they’re very light and comfortable, and now they’re so closely associated with me that people will tell me whenever they see a similar pair in the wild.
unfortunately, I didn’t take care of them very well and had to lay them to rest recently :( the first photo is from when they were relatively new, the second photo is from a few months ago when the toe cap started hanging off (easy superglue fix but the beginning of the end), and the final photo is from a week ago, after the heel somehow came off on my walk to work without me noticing.
they will be missed but I think they’ve had their time 💔

😵Sometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.

🥪This is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
