Everybody else is fucked. I haven't owned a pair of Fallens in a couple years but they always had my favorite aesthetic and team.

Guess you could say another core company has... Fallen.

Dane Burman is pretty fucking gnarly man...super gnarly actually.

Neva forget.

The fact that these dudes were riding for Fallen says that none of them will probably get picked up.

Didn't Slash and Dickson quit/get dropped by Altamont? I don't see why Sole Tech would recommit to those dudes.

[2000]

I would of bought all their shoes from the 2005-2007 seasons if they would just reissue them. These were fresh as fuck, I cut the straps off though like an idiot.

Fallen was one of my favorites in high school. Damn shame to see them go.

Corporations win again.

JT and Black box brought NB# to skateborading, and now Fallen fallen...

Is that Karma?

I'm not sure what it is but I bet Alanis Moriessette could write a song about it.
Imma hate on the cheif more than most but it sucks that this is happening to him/ his brand
How c1rca and vox are surviving I have no idea.

[c-dock]

Jamie Thomas goes back to C1rca and the company actually sells shoes again

They dont shove bibles uo the asses of their riders.

[DGKALIS]

Damn.... sucks to see another shoe brand close it doors. Pretty soon there is only going to be a couple left. Wonder where all the skaters are going to go once that "bully" pulls the plug, because we all know it truly doesnt give a shit.
Riding for the bully is like shopping at Walmart then wondering what happened to all the cool locally owned stores. Then... once the tax breaks for walmart are gone... so is walmart. Whats left??

i think they quit for Volume 4, which makes sense cause they're friends with Nuge. i can't imagine Altamont is doing especially well either. Dickson, Slash, and Dane Burman should all be fine.

Look, I can criticize him for all his religious bullshit but at the end of the day he's contributed a fuckload to skating and worked for/ owned a lot of iconic brands over the years. Politics/ religious beliefs aside, he's a fellow skater that ran his brands (bar #NB) without any corporate involvement, and he did it cuz he loves skating. The more companies we lose to the corporations, the less control we have over our culture.

[Paul Cicero]

Dang, RIP Fallen.

I had a few pairs of 'the easy' and it was a fantastic shoe.

[layzieyez]

I'm actually skating some fallens currently. Too bad. Vox vulc last maybe two weeks of steady skating while I can get a month out of fallen vulcs.  I still have some bombers and cole's first shoe. Thanks for trying.

[PatrickSkateman]

Best looking Fallen shoe was Jack Curtin's pro model. Never had any of the shoes, but I loved Ride The Sky.

*Almost* as underrated as Silas' first model on Adidas.

[144p]

Globe will probably absorb some of the riders, especially Zero ones since they are under dwindle.

[augustmoon]

guys....styles change.  skateboarding is dominated by the whims of the youth, and things that were once cool are no longer.  this is happened countless times.  the skate market is oversaturated.  too many companies.  too many pros.  subpar products.  does anyone really have a problem with more relatable skating replacing the rail/stair huck fest that has dominated skateboarding for the last 15-20 years?  Anyway, thats what kids want, so that's what they're gonna get. 

the rail/hesh/ripped clothes, "i just want my pro shoe to be baaaasic" era is done for a minute.  kids don't want that.  old washed up fucks like us don't matter, kids spending daddy's money matter.  you can keep blaming "corpo this corpo that" until you're blue in the face, but skating would have purged these companies whether they corporate shoes are in it or not.

Jamie to NB#

jamie tried to get on NB before the left black box

[too much]

Fuck you Nike.

Jock takeover almost complete

First thing I thought of when I saw this on FB...1/2 way through reading the thread...it's pretty cool JT created the thread.

[yourfuckingdad]

Glad to see skateboarding is almost completely finished with it's merger into mainstream culture!

Feels good to not have the jocks bullying me anymore.

[stone cold steve austin]

burman on emerica or Nb would be good

thomas on ice cream

Haha that's the "graffiti tunnel" at Sydney Uni. That place has some of the most zealous security guards I've ever encountered. Dane's awesome, I hope he gets hooked up.

[CAPTAIN NOBODY]

thanks for the great years! Going to watch Ride the Sky now

i was actually hoping that would happen, they teased about it on instagram once and everyone was eating it up but they never did it.

[sid vicious]

SUCH A SHAME THAT LEGIT BRANDS RUN BY LEGIT PRO'S CAN'T BE SUPPORTED ENOUGH TO STAY AFLOAT.

[theblandest]

Bummed. Hoover was doing good things at Fallen. The DOA is my next shoe to skate and idk if I should, but I will.

[Andrefosho]

Jack Curtin was on fallen and got a shoe, I can commend that. Not to forget about Jon Dickson as well.

[Roisto]

Always kinda got weird Jesus vibes out of Fallen & they're not very widely available here, so never got any. Still, it's too bad that they're going out cuz of all the corporate Nike shit. I'd rather have a skater owned brand I don't really dig around than lame ass Nike.

[Fongstarr.]

I definitely thought that was rad Curtin got a pro shoe. I didn't like it at first but it grew on me. Sort of had that Janoski vibe but also had the sock liner which is now getting raped by Nike by all their shoes.
