I know they don't have an online store but if you could toss the word out to any Houston skaters
Cool core shop

Not for nothing, but in 2022, if you're NOT running some sort of online shop/presence, you're setting yourself up for failure. Wish them the best, but when you're just asking for money via Zelle or Venmo, without any kind of game plan as to how you plan to use that money to make sure your business survives you're just prolonging the closing of the doors.

I agree. Another local shop doesn't sell much online but you can still browse some of their inventory and buy clothes etc.
Makes a huge difference.

No skate shop has ever supported me like Beantooth has. They flowed me gear, hooked me up with a full set up last year, and consider me part of their team even after I blew out my ACL. I'll definitely talk to them about upping their E commerce game as well, I'd hate to lose them, they've become a cornerstone of the community here.

Respect. I’ve heard they support a lot of skaters in that area! I live over by Select but rock w beantooth hard

Yo Lemon and CyberGoth, we’ve all probably skated together.
Josh is a good dude and deserves to have beantooth kept going, but you’re right he needs a stated plan. They’re doing so much for the Houston scene, especially over there in the east end. And he does so much for free/discounted.
I usually go between Southside Westheimer and Slct but will stop by Beantooth when I’m over near the burg

I wish he’d write a grant and shift into more of a community center for skating. They’re definitely a hub for the east end and for way different reasons than most other Houston shops. All the refurb, art, hookups etc. they do would still fit in perfectly but Josh’s and his crew’s paychecks wouldn’t be tied to sales margin.
