Love Brigade's Custom Chuck Taylors

I'm not a huge fan of Chuck Taylors, but like them okay. I just haven't seen anything other than the basic white or black styles that have done much for me until now. Last week I covered an indie rock n roll line out of Tokyo called Overdesign Creation that tricked out some Chucks that I think are hot. Check out that post here.

This week, it's more tricked out Chucks by Brooklyn's Love Brigade to celebrate the release of indie rapper Rob Roy's album King Warrior Magician Lover.

Check out the sneakers on the Love Brigade's blog, where you can buy them for $99. They have a sort of post apocolyptic, Beyond Thunderdome look, which is probably why I think they're hot. These are definitely not your dad's Chuck Taylors and for $99, quite a bargain.

Make sure to check out Love Brigade's site, where you can see images of designs from their latest men's and women's collections. And don't forget to check out Rob Roy's MySpace, where you can test drive a few songs, including Carmencita, which I've just listed to 4 times in a row. Don't forget this interview with Roy for more information on just who this guy I've never heard of before is.
