The Futura Laboratories version of the Converse All Star is called the Rats Lo. Sneaker enthusiasts with a sense of historical pride may not care too much for this design company’s approach to a classic shoe. While I am a fan of the classic All Star, I would encourage cynical sneaker fans to take a second look. The Rats Lo may seem simple but will stun you with its aesthetic complexity.
The black/white and unique white/black provides a simple backdrop for large text that will have people looking at your shoes all day long. The matching shoe box works as a conversation piece for friends interested in shoes and art. Look on the Futura Laboratories website for similar clothing and shoe offerings to put the Rats Lo in context.
