He should have an Atlantic Drift part with Knox.

I'm fearing for a mojoless, clean-cut NB# part with shitty landfill music.

Agree, NB should really think about change their video aesthetic, it’s always like watching a commercial on TV.

[close]

Their aesthetic has been that way since the Russell Houghton drone days.  I don’t mind it - I like a sense of import and videos having different styles.    Sometimes you want Spielberg, sometimes you want Mike Leigh

New Balance’s vibe is about being handmade a lot of the time, Made in the U.K., Made in the U.S.A…..what sets them apart from Nike, Adidas etc.

So overly commercial videos don’t really make that much sense to be honest.

Your reply has nothing to do with what I said since you're talking about where the product its made and I'm talking about skate videos. If to you making the crispiest HD video ever with a casual elevator song in the background is not overly commercial, then I don't know man, to each their own.

It’s about being on brand, shoes clothes skate videos everything. You said you like different styles….NB brand is about hand made. I didn’t say anything about crispy HD and elevator musak. My point is the drone and HD stuff isn’t on Brand.

Wait you think NB shoes are handmade?

There’s a certain line that are.  I think they have a place in US and in England that does it that way, but it’s limited and much more expensive

Anyone been to that DIY in Barca? looks amazing

[Nom De Plume]

Deserves more everything for being so talented and lifestyling harder than anyone. He's really figured it out. Throwing clay at the end came out of nowhere and was the icing on the cake. Would buy a handmade Tyler Surrey coffee mug.

Big up Pocket, these Followed edits have been great.

Definitely using this.

Ah, I didn't know that. They actually advertise hand-made.

I guess it's a matter of definition, and 'hand-made' can be stretched rather thin. Kind of like 'made in Italy'.
NB has some premium shoes, superior material but they are slip-lasted like any other sneaker. Maybe machine-lasted in rare cases. The same amount of manual labor is involved, that is handling machines and dubious glues. It's no more handmade than any other shoe in the shop. This kind of irks me because baseless claims of luxury are needed to sustain a UK factory—the idea of protecting Asian or African hands alone is not quite enough.

I know I know, I must grow up. Excuse the shoe-nerd derail.

I always think if I got super into pottery I’d make my own toilet….

Usually a challenge every season on the Great Pottery Throw Down (Bake Off for pottery)

Did anyone else get the final jeopardy right the other day because of something he said in this?
