Title: Slap Pal Shoes
Post by: sluggers on February 12, 2018, 01:47:54 PM
We have some amazing designers and sales folk, we can make shoes for $20-$40 using the best manufacturers from Leon, Mexico and then use Shipwire for distribution and sell them for $60-$100-$200-$400. Direct to consumer while we cut out the middle man. Hire a firm for the website, a couple of marketing people, and four people can turn into a million dollar company.

I like SLAPSHOECOUSA
We need to think about who is turning pro first and what the shoe will look like. Surely we can do better than this:

Your whole deal is crying about what other people eat and wear. Like that's it... And you and I were cool, but I guess you gotta maintain your rep around here, I get it.

well actually ... I'm trying to not just make that my only thing, yes I've vegan ranted in the past or whatever but I try not to derail threads unless we're actually talking about the topic at hand. Look back at my recent posts, I think you'll find I talk about skating more than animal rights these days.
We used to be cool? Who did you used to be? There's so many troll accounts popping up lately, I honestly can't keep track.
Maintain my rep? My rep is fucking terrible, 1 or 2 kooks isn't going to change that
