do you really need this explained?
this hat is older and now unavailable.
dummies who are late to the game may want it, and are willing to pay so they can seem down.
same as with dunks or 'preme
-
it's the hot brand of the moment and because the company is small they don't make a ton of product but everyone still wants it, the shop here got it and the retail prices are pretty standard actually.
Palace right now is exactly like Zoo york was in that 96-99 era, they make cool stuff but don't have a big backing or distributor so everything they put out is in high demand.

cause suckas gonna pay for it

That shirt isn't the only thing SP gave RiRi in Queens.

That's dumb. I'm pretty sure I saw the next catalog and that hat is in it.
-
I don't really care I'm just hyped because it's making me some money on ebay

seriously, people pay a lot for that shit. I sold my grey Tri-Brit shirt on ebay a few days ago for $70. and my tri-yard shirt has a $54 bid on it right now. it's fucking ridiculous. what's funny is they're re-releasing the Blazers snapback and fools are still dropping $250 on one. Speaking of, here's all their new fall gear.

Because any piece of real estate large enough to be a Palace will fetch a hefty price. Throw in the fact that royalty lives there and that is one steep mortgage.

Very true, and you have to factor in location, property maintenance and inherent property taxes.

Where did this picture of Michael Jackson wearing palace come from?
-
Chewy's skating is sick, and always has been, Rory's got a dope flatground b/s 360, etc, etc, but Palace as a whole (that is, the art direction) is fucking corny. Bullshit VHS nostalgia. Football casual nostalgia. Aping MNC from across-the-pond nostalgia. Hype Williams lite British art-stoner touches. Fuck 'em. And, "FFS", fuck Olly Todd.
Also, those very slim but-not-super-tight tapered-ass chinos that Lucien Clarke, Nick Jensen, Mark Suciu and a grip of dudes wear are fucking wack. Makes them look like weird little boys. Like, the pants are not even baggy in any way, but they still don't hit a leg muscle or anything. Creep shit. Makes spray-on denim look hard.
-
you people are ridiculous. everything palace has done has been sick. you're all just trying to find things to hate on because they're getting a little popular outside of skating. god forbid anyone finds out about our secret little club. you all should be happy that a small skater-owned brand, that supports real down and dirty city skating is getting a little shine. instead, y'all come up with all this nitpicky shit.
its 2012. its time to stop worrying about other dudes pants.

nah, pants matter. and myself, and others, have felt this way since they came out. i dont give a fuck if they get big; good for them. this isn't the '90s, or indie rock.

Chewy Cannon is badass - the rest is all overhyped triangular bullshit.
They are hopefully the beginning of the end of an era of regurge.
-
as the Snackman said... the Palace triangle is the new Supreme box logo.
-
I wonder what Barbera Kruger would have to say about that box logo.
Seems ironic that an artist whos work was largely concerned with
anti-consumerism and cultural whoring became the figurehead for its epitome

Did somebody say "´preme"? Im fatwaíng your ass...

Damn, if only i knew i could sell that hat for 10x what i got it for, before i fucked it up

If your gonna start charging skateboarders 60 quid for a baseball cap you at least need something to back it up with other than a couple of 2 minute youtube vignettes and a sports casuals collaboration - and even then - that shits questionable! I don't dislike them personally- they seem like good guys and chewy cannon is a brilliant skater but I don't understand the popularity at all. The last thing I need is more nostalgia and if triangles were a celebrity they would have had a corpse or 2 fished out their swimming pool about 3 years ago

their RRPs annoy me... only ppl that can afford to rock their gear are fashionistas with lots of cash to splash on clothes or homies that get hooked up free... what about us poor sk8rs ? they should have a [s e c r e t] online webstore only accessible by true woodpushers with those r/a/r/e price points...
Their decks are well priced though which is the most important thing... dont really like that dwindle wood tho
-
The thing is, Palace don't advertise. They genuinely don't care. They make super good boards and sell their clothes at those prices because hipsters will buy them. And then Lev, Chewy, Lucien and all can buy more weed. It's simple, but everybody's looking for some crazy explanation. It's some mates having fun. As skateboarders, you don't need to feel obliged to buy a ?60 hat. The t-shirts retail at ?30, which is only about ?5 more than other skate company shirts.

Still - they hammered the final nail in blueprints coffin thank fuck!
No more 'make friends with the colour brown' business!
I hope palace drop a bangin dvd though and shut me the fuck up!

I believe i read somewhere that Lev just said they market to people who are into those hypebeast things.
And they make the shit more expensive so they can use the hype to pay the skaters.

Thats rad that the moneys going to the riders but Palace could do with sorting their demographic out - unless they're in it to make a quick quid. Their marketing strategy is almost identical to Supremes with overpriced garms - internet hype and piss dribbles of footage. They are a sign of the times and the sort of people who buy 60 quid caps are the sort of people who will drop Palace like a turd as soon as someone creates a nostalgia fuelled company with a square logo.

Pretty sick - I like the soccer x skater collaboration idea, it just seems like a natural fit.
Even Creature made soccer balls at one point:

If Palace can do one with Umbro - then why not Le Coq Sportif, Hummel, Kappa, Lotto Etc.
I'd like to see more of that in the USA, but i'm not holding my breath - and i'm kinda over spending money on clothes if i'm not in a brick & mortar. I still like to go in a shop and see what's in stock.

Wow, I had no idea their shit was so expensive. Picked up a shirt from the local shop for $20, but thats all the palace stuff they had. Then one of my coworkers asked 'What palace is your shirt referring to, the Palace of Auburn Hills?
To those talking about it being big with hipsters/hypebeasts, are you all in NYC or what? I don't think ive seen any Palace out in the wild yet.
