Mission Mission brings our attention to something of the utmost importance this morning: a Converse All Stars-sporting hipster streaker caught by SFPD on Thursday night. An especially brave move seeing as how last night's weather almost dipped down to freezing levels. Anyway, we're thrilled he's wearing Mission denizens' favorite choice in footwear.

Worse yet, this comes right after Skechers opened another spore in Union Square last Thursday. Seriously, stop with the Sketchers, folks. Because that is some rank footwear. (CBS 5)
