Post UPCOMING/RECENT shoe releases thread

Damn those look like something you'd get after waiting for hours in the queue at a Soviet labor camp.

Bold of you to think they'd even consider giving supplies out at one of their camps.

I dig the 'jungle boots' color way, but from the pics they look too slim and deconstructed for my feet.

I seriously miss Emerica from like 10-20 years ago..idk what’s going on now

Fat laced were goat shoes

[MusclesMarinara]

Came across this video in my YouTube suggestions and it had me dying. I love Billy's brutal honesty about the shoe and his quip about shoes nowadays at the 00:40 second mark. Idk why Fallen thought this was a good idea to put Billy's interview in it cause it definitely didn't do any favors to advertise the shoe.

Don't necessarily agree with everyone who wears slip ons will be fucked. It probably works out even with techo shoes as far as pros and cons.

I haven't seen a v-neck shirt in ages

[TwisT]

The thing with current fallen is that it looks like they just turned the machine back on to make the old shoes. Which is fine I guess, but didn’t that not work out last time? If some of the models are new I can’t tell.

Kenny Anderson clear weather shoe

Chocolate chunk font on the insole confuses me. Is that a collab? I forget if Kenny is still on chocolate, and their website actually sucks too much to figure it out quickly. Maybe that font is just a publicly available font. Or the laziest collab ever.

The shoes are cool though.

I actually like those KA shoes. He's always had a good taste in shoes imo. Had his white CTAS hi tops and loved them dearly.

[HaveFunSkateboarding]

I actually like how those shoes look as well, but I’m not spending any of my money on anything that has that person’s name attached to it.

A GIF of 1:41 when he peeks out from behind the shoes and says "no air bubble" would be a great sig.

[DarkPools]

Those Clearweather KA shoes are hot garbage, just like 90% of the other models they've already put out.

Colorway is a solid choice, but those shoes just look like pretentious hipster jungle Tropic Thunder gentrified bullshit

Note: Tropic Thunder reference was for satirical motif. Luh dat shit!

On the bright side, you no longer have to avoid splashback on your feet.

when you once don't pee on your surf pants

[Paco Supreme]

Emerica with the cupsole moccasin looking ass shoe.

More slip cups instead guys

[LebowskisRug]

Billy was in the local shop and was 100% like that video about everything, just grabbing decks off the wall and talking shit on them. At one point someone asked about his shoe and he said "you can throw this through a fucking window and it wouldn't bend the insole is cement"

I feel he could have a career revival with a youtube series of him talking shit in skateshops.

That video of Billy was the only good thing about the whole last page of this thread

I would enjoy anything with him and Sinclair having to share long durations of time together.  They should have gotten a spin-off after that one season of KOTR.

I thought Sinclair or Billy did confirm that they shot a pilot or pitch or whatever for such a show but it didn't get picked up?

The current state of Emerica is sad...... how poetic.

How? Their stuff with Spanky and Julian doing G6 cupsoles is easily some of their best work in awhile and solid crowd service by a mile. I'm partially biased because I'm a fan of soletech's quality cupsoles anyways, tho.

Sure, they have their dud models/colorways, as does EVERY OTHER shoe brand out there.

Nah man it’s bad and I love Emerica, just hasn’t been good for a while. Even the Dickson colorways are terrible and that shoe is great…they just need to revamp whatever creative team they got there

This^

He posted something on his IG about wheels, and I commented "Wow, those really scream on the ground.  They're ABUSING the pavement", and he blocked me lol.

Soletechs price vs the quality is laughable. Honestly, aside from LARB it seems like skate shoe companies just don't make quality products anymore. I know $100 plus is a lot to spend for many people but if they last twice as long, its worth it. I've never been happier with my skate shoe purchases than I have buying used nikes on ebay. best $ to performance ratio.

try buying nikes off their website and skate them for a month, then return the skated shoes and get your money back

Is what’s laughable is thinking LRAB is quality. They look toasted after a few weeks. Every pair I’ve seen in the wild are busted after about 2 weeks. Yet people spend almost 100$ on shit that has no removable insole. The friends that I know that have them always talk about them like theh suck and then finish with yeah but they are great. And I’m like bald sole bitching about the insoles and busting holes through them in a week don’t sound great. I can’t speak on all of sole tech but I think emerica is on a definite up swing and models are looking better there’s a few off knew but whatever. The quality is there and on par with a the big corpo brands I’ve tried. (Never skated adidas or Nike).
