Kurt Cobain trainer set for release

Converse plans a limited edition trainer inspired by Kurt Cobain, featuring his name, lyrics and signature, reportedly approved by his widow Courtney Love, as part of its centenary celebrations.

According to reports, a Converse trainer 'inspired' by Kurt Cobain is to go on sale later this year. The limited edition shoe will feature his name, his lyrics and his signature and has apparently been approved by his widow Courtney Love. It's all part of Converse's 2008 one hundredth anniversary celebrations, in which they're featuring a few other dead celebrities on their trainers (Ian Curtis, Sid Vicious, Hunter S Thompson) and a few live ones (Common, Joan Jett, Karen O).
