Hey, check out these killer shoes!

The whereabouts of Kurt Cobain's ashes might be a mystery, but Converse has released its special-edition Kurt Cobain Chuck Taylor sneakers, emblazoned with "doodlings drawn from the personal notebook" of the deceased Nirvana singer, who took his own life (or so they want us to believe) in 1994.

Available in both high- and low-top models, the canvas kicks run $49.95 a pair—a bit steep by Chuck T standards but a small price to pay to walk around with the offhand scribbles of a grunge poet wrapped around your feet.

And as soon as a certain someone's foot heals, she'll no doubt run out and buy a pair.
