The 46th edition of Comic-Con kicked off with a bang in San Diego on Thursday. For those who aren’t quite sure what Comic-Con is, it’s where comic book, science fiction, movie, fantasy and pop culture lovers come together for a large convention featuring all things comics-related.
The event is known for fans who dress up as their favorite characters and for its special guests. “Star Wars” always has a good showing of fans in their best Clone Trooper, Darth Vader and Chewbacca get-ups. For those who aren’t as character-focused, we’ve rounded up a gallery of Comic-Con-appropriate shoes for your visit, including “Star Wars” sneakers from Vans and Adidas.
Comic-Con wouldn’t be complete without Batman and Superman costumes, Wonder Woman, and the Avengers team. Over the years, Converse has created special-edition DC Comics collections. Most recently, you can find Chuck Taylor high-tops with Batman, the Joker, Superman and Wonder Woman plastered on the sides of the shoes. In years past, the brand featured Aquaman, the Flash and Poison Ivy.
