# Fashionable Footwear Body Art This Converse Shoe Tattoo Replicates Iconic Chuck Taylors on Skin By Jason Soy | Published 2012-05-10 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-shoe-tattoo References: [fashionablygeek](http://fashionablygeek.com/shoes/converse-chuck-taylor-foot-shoe-tattoo/) & [collegehumor](http://www.collegehumor.com/picture/6764714/converse-shoe-tattooed-on-foot) Some people muse about tattooing articles of clothing onto their skin in place of real clothes, but the owner of this [Converse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-allstar) shoe tattoo has actually committed to the idea and got the iconic footwear etched onto his foot. As you can see from the images, the familiar detailing of the [Chuck Taylors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charli-xcx-by-you) are all there aside from the soles and the shell top. The laces of the body art design magically vanish, but at least this tattoo owner doesn’t have to deal with fake tying his shoes. Images of the Converse shoe tattoo show that the unique piece was done to the right foot, though it’s safe to assume the owner will tattoo his left foot as well to complete the look. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Clothing Tattoos:** The trend of tattooing articles of clothing onto the skin opens up opportunities for innovative tattoo artists and fashion brands to collaborate on unique designs. - **Shoe Art:** The rise of shoe-inspired body art presents opportunities for shoe brands and tattoo artists to create co-branded limited-edition tattoo designs. - **Fashion Body Modification:** The fashion-forward trend of body art that replicates iconic fashion pieces provides a platform for tattoo artists and fashion designers to explore innovative collaborations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can capitalize on the trend of clothing tattoos by collaborating with tattoo artists to create exclusive tattoo-inspired clothing and accessories. - **Tattoo:** The tattoo industry can embrace the trend of shoe-inspired body art by offering specialized shoe tattoo designs and collaborating with shoe brands to create co-branded limited-edition designs. - **Footwear:** The footwear industry has the opportunity to explore shoe art by collaborating with tattoo artists to create unique limited-edition shoe designs that appeal to fashion-forward consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Japanese Artwork Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-allstar.md) - [Singer-Designed Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custom-chuck-taylor-all-star-charli-xcx-by-you.md) - [Custom Artist-Joined Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charli-xcx-by-you.md) - [Custom Party Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-and-charli-xcx.md) - [Canvas Co-Branded Hi-Top Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chuck-taylor-2.md) - [TV-Inspired Classic Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stranger-things-converse.md) - [Anime-Inspired Canvas Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chuck-taylor-pack.md) - [Deconstructed Canvas Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adererror.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md)
