Celebrating the 25th anniversary of this iconic Nintendo character, Converse Japan got together with the video game company to produce the new Converse Super Mario Bros Chuck Taylors.
These geeky gaming shoes are offered in two super-rad styles. They come in a black and white canvas, featuring an all-over print pattern of the Mario mascot himself. The Converse brand's star on the side is even modified to look like the shimmering Super Star from the game. Put a pair of these on and skip to the next level of streetwear style; they're definitely a power up and will earn you some points in nerdy street cred.
The Converse Super Mario Bros Chuck Taylors are set for a release in July 2011.
