Do not let me buy any more secondhand Converse One Stars on eBay!
Do not let me fall into the trap set by the red leather-looking ones with the white stars. There’s only one picture of them (only one? — suspicious) and it’s definitely from a catalog, and even though it looks smooth like leather, the listing says this shoe is made out of “regular.”
I was walking to work one fresh morning between rains a week or so ago, enjoying my big warm coat and keeping the mist off my head with my fine fuchsia-colored umbrella, when I approached a man who was pushing a shopping cart full of some thoroughly damp belongings. And because I often deal with homeless folks at work I slowed down as I came up to him and I said, “Hey,” and he looked me in the eye to acknowledge my greeting, and the look in his eye told me he was fucking done with this rain shit.
