Huf #1? What a shocker. This numbered list sucks. Freedumb Airlines isn't on there, either is Toy Machine socks.

First time ever I hear about Jimmy Gorecki's sweatpants brand. Complex also titled him as a relevant skater. Gorecki has been under the radar for a couple years.

That's really specific criteria, "skater-owned clothing companies" so specific that they included not one, not two, but three board brands in the list. Towards the top too. This is just regular.

Since it's complex, I'm surprised that they didn't mention Supreme or Palace.

If it was a legitimate blog I would have expected to see Freedumb, but it's Complex so....

I like how ayc bought their way on the list.  I guess since core shops aren't hoping on right away they're doing a deal where if a shop makes a order they will send the whole team out to the shop.  I don't know who hires these people at complex but they could do a million times better if they just grabbed a slap pal

  You guys realize this list is The 10 Best Skater-Owned Clothing Brands Right Now according to non-skaters, it's not a list about what skaters consider to be the best. They're outsiders looking into the culture and making decisions, so of course the list is not gonna be what everyone here likes.

 The list is for other non-skater, hypebeast type people to look at and then go and cop to try and look cool, so just be happy your favorite brand isn't in there...

Super bummed.

Came here hoping for some of the hottest tips in the skate fashion scene, but instead only found out where to get me some 'spensive sweat pants for my urban yoga class.

What's a bro got to do to find out what's hot and what's not in skate fashion? Who can we trust for this insight? I need color forecasts and style books, folks. I need NEXT YEAR'S looks now now now. I want niggas at the skatepark to back the fuck up when I arrive wearing a cape and jodhpurs. Is Supreme dropping a skort look this spring? Are overalls the next old look to come back? What about Jim Greco's late 80's AIDS cowboy look? I scan through the pages of every CCS catalog I can find and it seems to me that big-tittied Indian girls with joints hanging out of their mouths are big right now...can anyone confirm this for me? And what about shoes? Now that cup soles are on the come up again, should I start buying vulcs to be ahead of the curve? I heard that 5 panel hats are out? Is this true? I need to know if pot leaves on socks are still kewl or if I better sell all my HUF "Fuck It" apparel before it loses market share.

Can somebody help me please?

I totally agree, it's so lame that a black guy from a ghetto Philly upbringing would talk about his personal story as a way of inspiring kids from the same background as him. That's seriously so corny.
