I’d really love to see Dr.Z get a cons pro model. He’s been way past due

Honestly just want to see Dunks in shops regularly. I’m in the minority here but I feel most modern pro shoes are not executed that well and like the GT format of just releasing versions of a proven classic.

I love Hjalte and Bobby, but their footage wouldn’t look right without Blazers. Nike could give Bobby a special one with the DC or MD flag on the heel collar and matching swoosh or some shit and I’d be happy with that sorta like the Ishod color ways.

As someone that grew up in Maryland (thought I got out and now works in Maryland), please no not the flag. I hate seeing that flag on every fuckling thing in this state

This. Just basic ass colors that no one wants made in large numbers. It worked during the original SB hype. I was still able to walk in a shop and grab a pair of "basic, ugly" dunks that I could skate.

But even if Nike did that, I don't see it working because of places like Grailed, StockX, etc. everyone thinks they're a re-seller. So every one will nab a pair to try and flip for a $5 profit.

I think dunks wont be widely available again until hypebeasts move on to something else. Even if shops were to get basic colorways in large quantities hypebeasts would still be buying them all trying to flip them for even the smallest profit. Hope the fad dies down soon though cause its mad annoying when comments on skateshops' instagram posts are flooded with grown men whining about shoe raffles.

An Evan Smith DC pro model. I imagine it looking like a moccasin.

When is Bobby Worrest getting a signature Nike SB shoe?
It's been far too long since his ES Edgar model came out.

I'm sure we're going to see a lot of Vans/Reynolds, which is all well and good, plus it would sell a shit-load, but he had a good run with Emerica.

Ishod is deserving of more than a colorway.

Who do you want/want to see a pro shoe from? Must be on the brand currently and colorways don't count. For me a couple come to mind:

An eS Wade shoe
Vans Ray Barbee or Reynolds
Nike Hjalte

(Fully assuming Ishod and Lizzie's shoes come out in the next 6-12 months)

Lizzie's shoes came and went (only colorways and sadly I don't think she'll get a 'designed by her' model):

(still have a pair in rotation as causals and a pair on ice):

Looks like more than a colorway to me!

They look a lot like the lakai Newport but thicker. I think a low-top might look good.
After my last pair of authentic pros, vans won’t get my money anytime soon.

DC - Shanahan, but everyone already said him, so Jahmir Brown
eS - Wade D
Nike - Oski
Lakai - I don't like anyone on this team... I guess give Rick Howard another one?
Vans - Justin Henry
Adidas - Kader
Cons - Alexis
NB - Tom Knox

Although I can safely say that I’d have no inclination to buy it, id be really interested to see what kind of shoe && would design for Etnies, if he put as much thought into it as his deck
take what small comfort there may be left
seize what you love and damn all the rest

I asked him what shoe he was wearing once, and it's the only shoes he ever wears.

He said it was his pro model, I just can't think I've ever seen it on the site.
