i would guess TKs shoe isnt being advertised as a skate shoe, its def for the hipster kids that are into the skytop. the skytop sells like hotcakes (or at least did when it came out) so heres the next hot shoe for the hipsters. let the shops cash in. I could be wrong but isnt the same guy that ran TSA back in the day part of Supra?
This just looks like a bigger version of the Skytop with some design from the C1RCA Chad Muska shoes. And, then there are velcro straps on them. I'm sick of how there are Skytop imitations. First, Gravis with the Viking Hi and then Globe with the Lutzka [I don't know the name but you know what I'm talking about.] At least, this imitation is Supra.
Anyways, it's not going to be sold a lot to people who skateboard. Who would want to pay around $180, three pairs of decent shoes. And, there are more people on the BET Music Awards thing with Supra's than kids at my local park.
