Seems odd that nobody's talking about the possible family connection between Gilbert and Davey.

I think there’s a more likely connection to Crockett from Miami Vice since one is a big sleeve cuffer and the other is a pants one

Semi-related and a bit of a weird question: Anybody know what kind of pants Crocky wears? They look so comfortable and loose. Ben Davis are treating me well, but I'm just curious what he prefers.

he has a vintage clothing store (i think, it's called cee blues so it's possible that he's the owner) so it's likely his pants are also vintage. i believe i saw him in loose-fit double knees though, and they're great.

Him and his mom run it, he is definetly not wearing any double knee dickies.

He talks about his pants in one of the Thrasher mags before a Vans video release.   He definitely owns/skates in at least one pair of $500 pants

Well his style before that was completely different so you can't really blame anybody

And Mystery and Fallen were fucking corny

came here to agree with OP.

His style is just not for me, love his spot and trick selection though.

Also same could be said about quasai tbh:

Quasai rips, but has the wackest style

You spelled something so easy so very very wrong and also your opinion is stupid.

Nah man Quasai is the Japanese rip off

I enjoy Crocket but a couple of those cuffs could be getting out of hand

You'd be squatting like that too if you were constantly blasting over-waist-high ollies!

He had a signature pair of pants through Vans not that long ago. They were the brown duck canvas pants he's actually seen skating in quite a bit.

If they're $500 jeans they're probably Rising Sun or Mister Freedom but from the look of is fits could also be Samurai,Iron Heart of a bunch of other japanese brands. Same for the type 1 denim jackets he wears and the 50s looking sportswear. Gilbert's trousers are my current favourite skateboarder and I take personal offence to this thread, OP can fuck right off.

His part is so sick and I love his skating- his pants however, specifically the cuffed blue jeans somehow make him look more short than he actually might be...

Like it’s like he’s a little kid wearing his dads pants? Like him and the rest of the little rascals are hiding in a trench coat trying to buy a ticket to an R rated movie...

Here are my questions:

How tall is he?
Are those in fact his dad’s pants?
Spanky or Alfalfa?
