i knew a hobo kid who told me about a sign he wrote 'divorce, she got the house, the dog, the car, i got the cardboard'.
when it comes to the carroll brothers, greg got the cardboard.

I talked with their designer, jeff mikut about the Staple and the Manchester xlk and i got the impression that the Manchester is coming out in the near future (but he didnt confirm anything)!

I hope so. Best shoe ever. I also remember someone posting a link to an instagram video where Carroll says that they are working on a cupsole Staple as well which would be amazing.

Yeah, that was me... He told me that Carroll really wants it but they arent sure about it yet.

Would by the originals, not the new slimmed down version

good horn reflexes !

[raji]

Airwalk Enigmas! such a rad shoe, migtve been the first shoe i cut down. Airwalk Disaster blackouts were sick too

[OwlGreen]

The Mike Carroll signature Vans is a definite top 5 all time. For whatever reason Surf Berkeley had tons of them for either $20 or $30 in like '96. I must have had 10 pairs.

Damn I'm jealous. Never had the originals, but when Supreme (re?)re-released them, I stayed up til like 3:00 a.m., when I had early courses, to put in an order for a black pair.

Think they're the only piece of Supreme anything I own. They look sick though, round laces make a lot of shoes (halfcabs especially) look better.

Velocitys too! My mate cut down/ duck taped some "daggers" back in the day - just like a half cab except it had the lace saver (and mini toe cap) too



just imagine these with a pair of super baggy green blind jeans

If Supreme put out a KCK in black/gum, I might do the same thing...

that video made me wanna buy the new staple (never pulled the trigger on originals) and i also liked the manchester OG, but call me when they remake the soca, that shoe was great.

Agree on the Soca. Kingston too, even though it wasn't much of an original looking design. Skated great.

Manchester was ok for me.

Staple was too stiff in my opinion. New ones look good though.
