A new store is not a skate shoe program which is what they are not doing anymore for the 50th goddamn time. Cromer is talking about his shoe and acting like everything is good because that's his job while it still exists.

i get that, but on the other hand, you have austyn responding to DM's confirming the demise of the team. the two biggest pros on huf are handling it pretty differently

One of those guys has a shoe coming out right before they turn the lights off and has a short window to get royalties and one of them doesn't.

Austin might be bitter too since it looks like his shoes got canned. Both the original and whatever plans they had for a 2nd one. Hopefully Cromer ends up somewhere good.

[h00man]

theyre keeping the Dylans

I need real confirmation

one still gets his shoe coming out, the other one is contracted until 2022, and won't be getting paid out for it

[Alonzo]

Maybe we'll get Gillette on Adidas, that'd be nice.

Gross!

cromer was just talking about his new shoe coming out. it's super weird to me to have new product coming out when it'll be dead 5 months after it comes out.

[close]

not only that, he has a part coming out with it.

I mean, it's a résumé booster.

for sure, potential suitors will definitely be interested in seeing what he has been up to. its not like he can really sit on that footage

I heard from the inside that they turned down a collab with Fortnite, fearing that Epic's game would hurt their brand image. yeah… it's only the biggest game ever with a player base that crushes ever other title. And to think with that crossover appeal? Wow.

That's an interesting speculation, to be honest if your brand isn't doing too well might as well milk it.


If it'll please the court of the Slap board, Nike SB, Adidas, Converse, Van's, New Balance, are the Champ's of skate shoes. There's a tier of "skater owned brands" to corporate and so far the bigger brands are crushing it.

Even though we'd like to think Van's are core they're just as guilty as Nike.......

Lakia probably should have done a small collab with Fortnite, see how it goes.... The others e'S, Etnies, emerica, probably are struggling with sales as of the bigger brands.

There's a shoe on Former's story with caption "June"
Possible footwear collection and even Austyn pro model?

So I stopped skating Huf like 2 years ago but I feel like if they stuck around, they could potentially make some nice looking puffy cupsoles that would be legit.
That would make me start wanting to buy Huf again but I guess it’ll never happen.

lol no.

austyn is still contracted, and will be getting on one of the big 3 come january 1st 2020.

heard from someone at vans that he has been actively in discussions with them, but it's almost impossible for him to get on vans at the moment. crazy.

almost as haggard as your kratom addiction


vans seems to be one of the hardest companies to get on. so i'd be surprised if it happened. i thought he'd be a shoe in for cons, but not looking likely either. my money is on adidas.

I texted Bucky today too and he answered me right away.

Didn't Austyn almost get on Cons before Huf? Would that mess with his chances now?

Was not pleasing.

This has probably been covered, but are they going to continue as a clothing label?

Absolutely

[honey island]

new drop, looks like a lot of the guys got colourways as parting gifts

[Bitter]

Colorway severance package

[camel filters]

are they giving a good chunk to the foundation off dylan's shoes? If they keep selling it after dropping the shoe program, seems like the only right thing to do. doubt dylan would love them profiting a bunch after cutting out his teammates of a paycheck.

I just got mine in the mail and they have a card that says partial proceeds go to the foundation. I think they'd continue because it just convinced me to buy another pair after I get paid.

Shit somebody needs to text Bucky

[honey island]

"Footwear is such a small business for us and it just doesn’t work to make it to our standards. There’s so much that goes into making footwear, including cost. We’ve been doing it for 8 years and I feel like it stayed in the same place. It became a clutch where I couldn’t work with a Vans, Nike, or Adidas because we could no longer be a partner"


lol, this fucking guy

[phlatspots]

I actually heard this from a friend who works in the NY shop, this might be true

[BobbyPshew]

I bought a pair of Huf shoes and they were the fucking worst, couldn't hardly walk in them, let alone skate in 'em.
That being said, I've always been a fan of Keith's.
