Converse shoes have to be scruffy

I can't stand a pair of new crisp white converse which I bought in Singapore last September. I have yet to begin the arduous process of breaking in the shoes because they are so embarrassingly clean and dazzling that I need a pair of sunnies to deflect the glare. And I got self-conscious the few times I worn them. It's a vicious cycle, I know. So when it was pouring one day, I put them (the shoes, not the sunnies) out in the open just so they could drink in the elements. One of my ongoing attempts to achieve the used-rugged-look without wearing them. Let's just say I have a long way to go.

Apparently Converse has come up with a Well Worn collection, a new line of sneakers with dirty and broke-in shoes, designed especially for people like me!
