"If you\u2019re superstitious at all, then today probably has you on edge. You might be like Scarface saying \u201Cevery twenty seconds got me peeping out my window.\u201D \u00A0It\u2019s Friday the 13th, so all you cautious types should probably avoid black cats, ladders, sidewalk cracks, puddles (so you don\u2019t mess up your kicks) and dudes in hockey masks.\n\n(Source: monstersinmotion.com)\nAnd even if you\u2019re not superstitious, you\u2019ll hear people talk about Friday the 13th because it\u2019s such a huge part of pop culture. Today, a handful of custom sneakers\u00A0showed their love\u00A0for the unluckiest day of the year. If you're paying homage to the iconic\u00A0horror film series yourself, Angelus Direct's Autumn Red acrylic leather paint is the perfect.\n\n(Source: @sbdkustoms)\nBack in the middle ages, the number 13 was established to be the most unlucky number. The reason why Friday the 13th is considered the unluckiest day of the year is still sort of a mystery. But regardless of the reason, people still stress out today. Something like 20 million people in the United States bug out on Friday the 13th. That\u2019s like the entire population of Florida thinking that something bad is going to happen to them today. \n\n(Source: @kreativecustomkicks)\nThis fear is completely understandable if you have a creepy guy in a hockey mask and a Yeezy Season-type outfit hanging around your neighborhood. Back in 1980, the idea of an unlucky day went full psycho killer-mode with the film Friday the 13th. This film series out Jason Voorhees, one of the most famous movie monsters, into our pop-culture lexicon. The irony of course, is that Jason and his signature hockey mask was not featured in the original film. Spoiler Alert: The killer in the first F13 film was his mom, but as far as we know, she\u2019s never popped up on a collaboration or custom sneaker; it\u2019s always the hockey mask instead.\n\n(Source: @jimflo12)\nOver the years, this film franchise has become powerhouse in the slasher genre, and Jason has evolved with each film. It wasn\u2019t until Friday the 13th, Part 3 that the hockey mask even came, but that is the version of Jason Voorhees that made a lasting impression. After 12 films, Jason\u2019s body count was a big as his cult following.\n\n(Source: @hjartistry)\nAlmost 30 years later, when someone mentions the Friday the 13th series we usually think of the hockey masked villain and his bloody machete stalking down a street on a cold Friday night. His presence was probably the unluckiest thing to happen to people in the film but a fan favorite for horror buffs and artists everywhere. \n\n(Source: @swbartwear)\nSo if you\u2019re superstitious at all, maybe you should stay in today and paint sneakers instead. And if you\u2019re friends want to go camping by a lake, definately say no because there\u2019s a chance this guy is going to be there."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
