Florida woman's Converse shoe collection breaks world record


Penny Gold, a retired school teacher, has a strange addiction -- Converse shoes. The 63-year-old owns 733 different pairs of Converse sneakers and is hoping to break the Guinness world record.
At Oddball, we've seen and heard about some pretty impressive shoe collections, but never so many Converse. Check out the article in the Daily Mail for more pics of her collection and some of her more unusual shoes.

All We Want for Christmas is a Vans Waffle Sole iPhone Case!
Props to Complex for this one.



Its still looking like a rumor, but the hype is building for Vans to release the Waffle Sole Case. Originally made as a promotional item, the piece caught the eye of a couple fans on Offthewallsite.net who have been clamoring for its release. The latest discussion seems to point out that Vans is rumored to release these on their website and in stores during the coming weeks. One member posted pictures of his purchase, which should make everyone a little more confident that these cases are indeed coming out. Keep your eye on the Vans website ready to make a purchase.

Farewell, Funny Man

Our hearts are a little heavier today at Oddball. As not only did we lose a great customer but the world lost a very funny and talented man. We will miss you Patrice and all the words of encouragement you have given us over the past 14 years we've been in business. RIP.

Their production took longer than we anticipated, but that's because we wanted to get them just right. They are specially designed for the large-tall man, available in 3 awesome colors (black, red, olive green -- blue is coming soon) and are Made in the USA -- right here in Portland, Oregon.
Oddball Apparel has big plans for 2012, so stay tuned!

Man With Size 21 Feet: "The Ladies Only Want Me for One Thing"

For 19-year-old Welshman Carl Griffiths, the cons of having size 21 feet include having to special-order shoes, not being able to wear regular men's socks, and getting rejected from rugby clubs because his footwear doesn't comply with their strict dressing codes. The pro: Lots and lots of ladies. In an EXCLUSIVE story, The Sun reports that the 6'5" Griffiths "is constantly faced with the same chat-up line: 'Is it true what they say about men with big feet?'"

We here at Oddball can tell you: Yes it's true, ladies. Big feet = big shoes.

They see him rolling, they hating!

Longtime Oddball employee Dan passed his Oregon Motorcycle Permit Certification test today, scoring a perfect 100%. Way to go, Dan!
He spent his day-off cruising the streets of Portland, just him and the open road, making the long trip from one Ross discount store to the next. But sorry ladies, he's taken.

Another car crash outside of Oddball World Headquarters?

On Monday, the Oddball Crew arrived to this scene of carnage outside our loading dock door. Was it another accident at the famous 18th & Thurman blindspot? Not this time.
NBC is in town filming Grimm, their newest drama set in the city of Portland, Oregon. They staged this car crash for an upcoming episode. Some of their crew even bought some shoes from us. Thanks, guys. You are welcome on our street anytime!
