EK x KD is coming soon.

Should just go ahead and have an integrated calf compression sleeve built into the shoe.

Funny how hard we tried to like BA's shoe......

[close]

I didnt try anything. I loved them from the very first sight... Still skating a pair.

Yeah no trying here. Although not every colorway was great.

I'm wearing a black pair now actually.
Mine are the meshy r/r kinda, so it would be dumb to skate them, but I like the look and wear em around the house.
Wish I could've gotten a skate pair before they wwere gone, seem like they'd be interesting to skate.

Even played basketball in them earlier today, and they worked fine, my crew won. And I still have a crisp pair stashed for the summer.

Price point is too high, much like the sock liner.

I wonder what would happen if Consolidated spent half the time they spend bashing Nike in to making their brand relevant again...?

^ they would get into shops other than circle a?

I would make the same face if my shoe sponsor forced me to skate in something that looks like my moms yoga slippers

Hoping that they do a NikeSB x Lululemon collab drop on this new Koston shoe.

ha ha yes! The prices there are fucked just like the shoe.

Jake · « **Reply #44 on:** March 06, 2016, 12:24:35 PM »

The price is fucked in the head, so I don't foresee a future where I'll own these. I'd skate a pair though if I got a free pair, the cream colored ones look nice and I'd imagine they're comfortable.

After I'm done skating my Yeezy Boosts I might give these a shot. Koston looks like a Thai MCA with that cut

too many people like the same redundant shit and arent open to trying anything new - tech, cupsole shoes which is why janoski's, bruins etc have had color ways made for years yet the ones that a lot of people like like ba's gatos blazer hi's aren;t as common or discontinued.

If you send me a pair I'll bring it in to the workshop at Lulu and add a bunch of reflective logos to it.

Nike going to the hypebeast market with a new shoe designed for skateboarding isn't that surprising after the success of the Janoski, it's just weird that he would spend the entire interview stressing how it's designed for performance over everything. But I suppose, what else is Koston, the professional skateboarder going to talk about for his new skate shoe?

For $150 you could buy two pairs of Wes Kremer's brand new DC shoe. They aren't amazing looking, but they're a hell of a lot better than these.

Maybe if they ever drop to $80, just maybe

150 for skate shoes is insulting! Price should drop before summer, maybe n clearance racks too. Koston obviously doesn't care about skaters, no skater would design a shoe to cost 150 for the kids! P rod too fuck that guy, nike can blow me.
[close]

It's $150 with the "tech and design" of the shoe. Koston doesn't set the price. He's not like "let's make me shoe so 1 of 10 skaters can afford it". Nike sets the price.

Or Maybe that's his plan, lol.
[close]
If you were Koston would you design a shoe skater kids can't afford? Prod is just as bad, enough with the technology shit, Nikes only shoes that stuck longterm were the dunkSB and Blazers! All others are a cash grab, there is literally no reason for a sock embedded in the shoe.. Or that tiny little airbag under the heel. Complete gimmicks we will laugh at 1 year from now.

Koston literally said he didn't design the shoe for kids and the masses. He designed the shoe for himself. Which is quite obvious. Because no one but Koston could rock these.
