More than a year ago we showed you a pair of Converse Chuck Taylors that Lupe Fiasco was wearing around that at that point were not slated to release. We put it on you the readers to let Converse know how much you liked them and with nearly 400 comments, sure enough they have made it to retail about a year later.

These Converse (Product)RED Chuck Taylors are available at David Z for $100. Time to get kicks and give the middle finger to AIDS.

These Paratroopers feature a reptile-like leather upper, a woven leather toe box and green accents on the shoelaces, heel and tongue. They also feature a gum outsole.

The Lupe Fiasco x Greedy Genius Paratrooper will be available only at select Greedy Genius retailers such as Leaders 1354.  Which ‘Cool Young Lu’ collaboration suits you better: Converse Product (RED) or the Greedy Genius Paratrooper?

Wrapped in black patent leather, these sneakers are very unique and eye-catching to say the least. Red accents are visible on the tongue, midsole, and laceholders.

The PRODUCT (RED) campaign’s goal is to increase awareness and raise money for humanitarian efforts. Click the jump to see Lupe’s low-cut version of the Chuck Taylors PRODUCT (RED) provided by Hypebeast.

This issue is set to hit stands officially August 12th.
