This year we saw a shortage of skateboarding gear thanks to covid-19 and with the release of Louis Vuitton's skate shoe, I was thinking about the future of the industry going into the '20s. I hypothesize that skateboarding and skateboarding culture will be totally invaded/swallowed by the fashion and streetwear industry. classic brands like Vans, Independent, and Baker will become rare finds as they are bought up by scalpers to be sold at hyper-inflated prices online. Parks and Plazas will be overrun and posers will reign supreme. It's an oldheads worst nightmare.

There's always some yellow curb behind a bank for us to go skate and bitch

OP obviously doesn't understand skateboarders.

If it comes to that people will create smaller brands that make their profits on selling a lot instead of charging too much. You can't have skateboarding if there's only expensive shoes out there, cheap expendable shoes are a necessity.

People who want to wear shoes that look like turkeys are not skaters. Dunks can be fucking $5k a pair and it won’t effect skateboarding.

And much as brands like Dime, polar and palace are cool. You don’t have to buy it.

Now board prices rising to $60 for things like a baker or Dlx logo board, that’s a different story. That could keep kids from skating. But, I think board prices going up is finally upon us and won’t be changing.

As a brazilian I assure you board prices won't stop anyone from skating, it'll just be a bit harder.
