Hi all. I'm still thinking a lot about my mork costume. I can't for the life of me find anything on mork's shoes other than the fact that they have black soles and white uppers. I found something online on converse's website that allows you to create custom shoes. So I made a pair that I think would work.

Does anyone here know anymore about the shoes used on the show or something similar?
Thanks so much
Kyle

The shoe string eyelets would look better white.
I think this shoe should be a mid top or high top.
If you can build a Fila shoe, it might look better.
Attached are files of pictures of the shoe.

Wow, those pictures are great. Thank you so much! You are right. I was thinking they had orange eyelets, but they don't. They are also high tops, you are correct about that. I guess I was thinking it terms of comfort/wear-ability. I don't think I'd probably wear hightop all stars apart from this outfit, however, low top, I just might. Seems sort of strange to spend $95 (shipping included) for a pair of shoes that I wear a few times.
Thank you again for the pictures. I really appreciate it. Back to the drawing board.
My plan now: Find random pair of used, converse, all-white hightops. Then I'll spray paint the rubber bottoms with plasti-dip. That will give me the look I desire. Hopefully.
