As expected, the team is Marius Syvanen, Austyn Gilette, Guru Khalsa, and Alex Davis.

Take THAT Bubblegum Tate!

at least hope castrucci and those dudes are getting paid off this mess

tysj! · « **Reply #2 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:34:10 PM »

Whoa not bad at all. Liking the Quest, Ibex, and the Lark.

SFblah · « **Reply #3 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:37:41 PM »

Gotta say the colorways are really good.

Ibex = Vans Mike Carroll

Wait...so Guru may be the only pro on that team. Pro shoe coming?

riding bitches · « **Reply #4 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:38:08 PM »

they don't look bad just similar to shoes from other brands that i would rather support.

FACE! · « **Reply #5 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:40:19 PM »

i'll try out the quests but i also like the ibex, summit, and lark.
too bad people are too close-minded to look past the fact that its a board company making shoes.
i think they would get more business if the name wasnt habitat

if memory serves me right the samples have been in the teams hands for a few months, the flow team is getting them within the next couple of weeks/just got them, and they're hitting shelves in spring/summer of 2010

Yea, I don't get naming the shoe company after a board company. Right away you limit the team to that board company (or sister co like Alien). I'm not sure of the reasoning in doing it this way.

Yeah, sorry forgot to mention. This is from a Spring 2010 catalog.

Most everything looks decent. I like the larks and the truces. I probably wouldn't skate the basins, but at least it's something slightly original and not another rip-off of a popular shoe.
EDIT: Didn't realize that they weren't skate shoes. Whatever.

did you figure that out all by yourself? whos a good boy? whos a good boy?

Sidewayslurkzine · « **Reply #14 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:57:57 PM »

maybe if they change the name and get someone who's not from the habitat/aws family id be more supportive

bumpnrun · « **Reply #15 on:** July 23, 2009, 08:59:45 PM »

They all look decent enough to me. I'd rock all of them (except the high tops and the basin) if they price them not too high, have good materials, construction and are comfortable.

featuring · « **Reply #16 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:06:08 PM »

the Quest's look nice.

Flume · « **Reply #17 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:08:12 PM »

i hope they don't turn out like element.

Rafiki · « **Reply #18 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:09:28 PM »

Probably will turn out like element
Should just stick to boards

These shoes suck. How can you think these are good and then say Element shoes suck.

kilgore. · « **Reply #21 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:13:18 PM »

oh great now i can go to the skate park with my hemp shorts, my habitat shirt, deck, AND shoes. naw but they aren't that bad and the team is sick, but i'd never wear them shits.

Edward Sebastian · « **Reply #22 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:19:59 PM »

the shoes look ok . . . but like people have said before, they shoulda thought up of a different name.

starvingrobot · « **Reply #25 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:38:19 PM »

On top of shit Watson. The Lark looks kinda cool but in all honestly, I'd rather just buy some Vans.

hekkahyphy · « **Reply #26 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:50:39 PM »

i saw guru skating the truce at an elwood demo a while back. they dont look bad but just seeing a habitat logo on feet made me cringe...but then again thats nothin noone can get use to

MFS · « **Reply #27 on:** July 23, 2009, 09:52:10 PM »

Will be checking these out hopefully next weekend.
