I wore Converse All-Stars when I was a kid, I think many kids did. Soon after we got married, I got Maria a pair and she wears them often in warm weather.

I saw this sneaker  sitting in the sun the other day, and it was, to me a symbol of  youth, athleticism, even sexuality, all things Maria possesses in my mind. I like it as a still shot. I call it the Iconic Sneaker.
