Cosmetics aside, Nike makes durable, comfortable, performance skate shoes. Huf makes cheap crap and weed socks. Not to mention the obvious pay upgrade.

Why not both?

There's also a huf dunk collab from like 2004, kinda weird because huf was on DVS, hell he was on DVS in 2009 too.
I wonder if Gino was involved.

Huf was a sneaker boutique in SF before it all. Carried all brands. So gave into collabs when he could

What's stopping Nike from making skateboards? Fuck it, at this point they've taken over skate footwear, might as well destroy competition across all of skateboarding.

peter ramondetta just quit huf too. you guys know huf is corporate now too right? pretty sure keith owns like 2% or some shit

He's still on the site and they apparently are pretty on top of keeping that up to date.

Huf Classics suck.

I wonder how long it'll be feasible to ride for nike and still maintain relevancy when the trend in big shoe company and smaller board brands. So many folks on nike, to me, it doesn't even matter anymore.

also doubting this. he dropped one of his best parts ever with Huf just a month or so ago
i think they just discontinued his pro shoe which has been running for a few years now; hopefully a ramondetta 2 is on the way

Nate B has a rep all over Texas for never wanting to go skate. Like apparently dude would rather just chill on the beach and wash dishes for a living.

Post by: rideflannel on July 05, 2016, 11:02:18 AM
^Wash dishes? Nate is a UPS driver which isn't an easy gig to land and it will pay him way more than skateboarding ever would have (unfortunately). Sounds like he has his head screwed on straight.

Here's his last interview he did for his Northern Co. Guest board.

Damn. That's fucking sick. I didn't know Nate personally but a friend of mine used to skate with him. I guess he was just over it. Plus, 83K per year... that's like 3 times the normal skateboarder pay. Good for him. Plus, he probably finds a shit ton of spots!

They have an investor which is completely different. Lakai is in the same ordeal and if you're saying Lakai is "corporate" than you're an idiot.
