The resort has been offering an expanded line of Duffy merchandise during the year-long celebration, which also honors Duffy's girlfriend, Shellie May, and feline friend Gelatoni. But the new item that caught my eye was this:
That's right: Duffy Chucks.
It's a pair of Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars, with Duffy fur on the canvas upper. The "Journey with Duffy" celebration logo appears on the tongue and the inside is lined with navy with white stripes. The shoes run from women's size 6 through 10-1/2 and men's sizes 4-1/2 through 9, and sell for 15,800 yen — about $129 at current exchange rates. (Thanks to TDR Explorer for the English translation of the specs.)
You probably wouldn't want to wear these outside (and especially not in the rain!), but they'd be perfect for a trip on the Duffy bus, wouldn't they?
