What's a piece of gear that you saw that you really wish you hadn't seen or had ever been conceptualized in the first place?

I don't know who porous walker is, but I really hold disdain for his work. This is probably the worst design I have ever seen on any piece of clothing.

Whattt porous walker is hilarious!

I feel like the correct answer is that disgusting LV griptape

Crazy printed grip. Idk how hard you're ripping, if you have camo/Louie vutton/full graphic grip tape, I literally don't wanna see it.

Never understood why those griptape rollers exist when you essentially already have 4.

Every time adidas makes a skate version of one of their classic shoes, they blow it (ie: the skate sambas and the vulcanized superstars.)

Do these actually exist, I only ever saw them in comic books. Would be sick if someone would wear them in a skatevid and the hat would fly of (actually take of like a helicopter) during a trick down a stairset.

Googled it, they do exist...

Regular sambas feel perfectly good for skating imo.
Skated boost superstars and they were decently good, but could have more grip (I mainly skate vans and cons so that was very unexpected).

Funny you should say Braille. I just looked at their blanks after seeing their name in the woodshop thread as PS sticks.
Anything off about their hard goods? Don't start me about the goofy youtube video they make. Most of those are straight return to sender material.

I’ve seen the movie a fair bit back in the day, but I did not recall Martin Freeman being in it (innit). Fucking classic.
