I've done my share of walking. I wore through two pairs of Doc Martens and a pair of Sketchers when I was a Missionary in Argentina. I was living out of suit cases so I didn't have that much stuff (for two years) but I did have a pair of Van when I could'nt stand those other heavy shoes any more.
I also went on a number of hikes and I found that VANS were a lot nicer to my feet than hiking boots. Actually at the moment I'm wearing Ocean Pacific shoes, but VANS are still my favorite.
The idea behind this illustration (that I drew years ago while at community college) was to advertise some product. I was heavy into swing dancing and classic car shows at the time. Hot Rods Hangout had Rockabilly bands every week.
I added color to the drawing some time ago using Illustrator, but the colors came out very flat. Just last night I used photoshop to touch it up a bit. I'm much happier with it now, and in any case it's still one of my favorite drawings.
