Hi Huneybees,
Today, Converse celebrated the iconic Chuck Taylor All Stars with a call out to all their loyal fans and wearers of their signature sneakers to gather at Bugis Junction to celebrate their love for their sneakers.
Earlier this month, Converse launched its Spring 2015 campaign dubbed “Made by you” and the campaign saw the Converse team scour the globe to collect beloved and distinctly personal Chuck Taylor All Star sneakers, each of which tells a story of transformation from blank canvas to self-portrait of their owner, each pair telling a different story of their owner's journey...
Everyone has a different story and each pair of shoes were "beautifully decorated" with a different wear and tear, each with a different background. It really took me down a memory trip through a different style of portrait exhibition. Maybe I should do the same for all my shoes? Wahahaha!

Fans brought their beloved well-worn Chucks to the "Made by you" photobooth for a snap. The shots of their sneakers were key to creating their sneaker portraits, which were completed with their signatures. After the portraits were printed out, they were framed and packaged in an exclusive “Made by you” carrier case.
I also had my pair of Chucks up for a portrait, it's a brand new pair, but I can't wait to have it along on my journeys. Wonder how it will turn out after a few years...
And if you have already done the portraits today, be sure to enter this contest to WIN yourself a pair of exclusive Chuck Taylor All Star Monoweave Sneakers! Here's how:
