so the fact

that he was wearing Converse hitops when he shot himself makes them Kurt Cobain trainers?

She's fucked.

Last year, Doc Martens sought to use Cobain’s image and were firmly rebuffed by Love, who branded their idea “outrageous and despicable.” However, time has tamed her and she has subsequently sanctioned a Cobain lunchbox.
