The 20 Minute Comic Book Fashion Hour

When I was in high-school, I was something of a shoe freak. I'd get rare pairs through shady channels and had a series of toothbrushes and special cleaning agents I'd use nightly to keep my kicks clean. Then I got to college and was poor.

I bought my first pair of new shoes last week, and have slipped almost completely back into my old ways (need to buy some more Q-tips and bleach for the vulcanized rubber soles) but I thought I'd share some findings with all you cool cats here.

Nike SB released this hero/villain pack in November 2008 and they are sweet.

The Spider-mans

The Venoms

Aaron thinks that naming them based on the colorways is stupid. I think they are cool looking shoes, and the name gives me an excuse to post them here.

If you want some complementary colors, lids.com is selling Marvel and DC character hats. Some are hits, some are misses but there's a nice mix between classic colorways and bugged out, hipstery ones:

There's more of a selection over at neweracap.com that separates the DC caps from the Marvel caps (if you care about that sorta thing) and features some designs not available on the aforementioned lids.com. Dig it!
