If you're a crafty Dr. Who fan, these DIY shoes available on Etsy from GalleryWalkers are for you. The hand painted Converse All Star sneakers have different designs on them taken from different Dr. Who episodes. The otherwise black high tops can also be customized to suit your own tastes or inspire your own DIY shoes project.
From the tardis to weeping angels, these customized Chuck Taylors also include recognizable lines from the long-running British TV show like "alons-y" and "don't blink." In addition to receiving a brand new pair of Converse shoes, you get two uniquely hand-brushed, painted patterns with an artist's certificate and special care instructions. The sneakers also make a great gift.
