The appropriately named Pretty Sneaky stitches lovely knit covers to Converse sneakers. And the best thing about Converse sneakers for my purposes is that they're unisex. All nerdy Converse come in women's sizes by definition! Obligatory joke: There's an ood in the shoe.

Converse Unveils Fantabulous Dr. Seuss Sneaker Collection [Pics]

by Robert Quigley Jul 1st

For its Fall '10 collection, Converse is debuting a surprisingly comprehensive line of Dr. Seuss-inspired Chuck Taylor All-Stars. While they have some adorable li'l shoes for toddlers and children, plenty of these are geared towards grown-ups: If you can handle the lack of arch support, you too can rock kicks inspired by the likes of The Cat in the Hat and If I Ran the Zoo. The shoes are available for purchase at Converse.com, where adult shoes run from $55-$65 and children's shoes run from $35-$40 for 0- to 3-year-olds and $40-$45 for 3- to 12-year-olds.
