Louie of Volcom

[arrbee]

Mada, Jetty or Tapout are the only logical choices...

Who is gonna tell Ronnie he lost his spot to Louie?

[Lou Strux]

We can all wish for a Forties reboot.

+1 THIS^^^

Some interesting takes, decided to add a poll to the thread
(I'm guessing Supreme or WIP)

He's moving to Jersey and getting on Domestics. Him and Steve Durante have a shared part in the works.

Domestics: so ill.

This would be his best decision

[Luddite]

Genuinely curious why deluxe hasn’t relaunched Forties at least to some extent. Just doing T-shirt’s would surely sellout

[pbj]

seems like a testament to how well connected/respected you are in skating when you've got your choice of sponsor with viable connections to each.

i've enjoyed reading the speculation but between Carhartt WIP, Huf and Supreme, I'd probably guess Supreme.

[Christmas Complete]

Faded Glory or bust

[Coping Grinder]

Louie strikes me as the type of guy that wouldn't want to ride for a brand like Supreme.

would wear only Forties if it was an option

[Dooky-shoes]

Do they have a clothing line and an official team? Obviously they have shit everywhere. Who’s on the team?

Clothing brands who rely namely on skateboarders are not successful....bringing back brands is usually a failure…..

Leave a tender moment alone….

This Supreme speculation makes no sense to me. He's never been featured in any kind of Supreme/Fat Bill/John Wilson edit, I've never seen him wear anything by Supreme, and there doesn't seem to be any interest from him in that crew. His only possible ties to Supreme look to be merely being on FA and being friends with Na-Kel. I don't know where this is coming from.

To be fair. If I was riding and being paid by Volcom, I wouldn’t wear Supreme either. He would likely never be in a supreme video because he didn’t ride for supreme.

It was completely insane Reynolds wasn’t in any New Balance edits prior to getting on the team. Hardly skated with anyone else on that team.

Money talks

[HORSES]

Louie was in Blessed, while still on Flip.

[LebowskisRug]

I mean he joined FA to "skate with his friends" but posts a ton of videos of himself skating with people that aren't on FA.

So a Ghetto Wear reboot is off the table then?

Just keep it far far away from Dwindle.

It would have to be through Dear Skateboarding, they’re the only ones who release that stuff

[backside_reacharound]

y'all are going to be so hyped when louie shows up to the sesh wearing z cavaricci

[BALARGUE]

It's gotta be a big check because the one he got from Volcom was pretty confortable (i heard someone at Volcom say they now could hire 3 new guys)
Huf maybe with Mason (but i don't see a big check here)
Most probably Carhartt who has tight connections with Cons

[wuust]

H&M through Nordberg connection?

uniqlo??

They’ve already done pieces……no one cared…..Polar is an anomaly…..

[144p]

Dwindle already had ghetto wear pants and shorts in the line.
Forties won’t return and TG talked at length about it saying how expensive the clothing would be to make at level he wanted.
If Louie left Volcom it would only be for an upgrade which only Supreme could offer.

[dannyprovolone]

old navy’s first pro

[CHONGO]

supreme most likely

[HoneNone]

He signed with Noah last week. Looks like they are trying a skate reboot. I don’t know what to think about it really but they made a good choice with Louie

Noah has never left the skate game.   Prices may not be skate level, but photographer Elias Parise is the TM and documents their team (NY/NJ underground rippers)

I actually seen Lopez in box logo once in an actual volcom digital ad, also supreme boxers a bunch as well in insta clips, Reynolds has had clips in supreme vids also
