I think they're just asking for validity.

There's this book that came out a few years ago called "the difference between telling and selling"...a marketing and design book.

I never liked "visually" what they did after the KCK, strombolie, cobknobbler era... saw the book and new why... it was just some new techy brand made by an agency... it felt to current and uncomfortable the first time I saw... and even worse when I saw the book... Just the behind the scenes felt weird.

Kind of always made sense to me why it wasn't working after that. Sucks though... they were kind of a staple for a while.

Hope the riders find there way too.

Duffs have been Getzd. You're looking for validity.

So Gravette's recent departure was a smart one and perhaps a bittersweet nail in the coffin then?

Yep, No David Gravette and you got no company.

Strombolies were some of my favorite skateshoes ever.

So, what you are saying is - If i post 20 times a day about how tight ''insert skater here'''s pant are or how much Jamie Thomas sucks then that will make it more valid?

I agree. KCK's were probably the last pair of Duffs I owned.  I also had those Dukes.  Weren't they made by Duffs?

to me those sheep ones look like those adrian lopez shoes .  they look like your average nice vulcanized sole except for most of the colorways have a skull print or some shit on them and you get them at zumies......i bet sheep was better.  does anybody have a picture of these 'strombolies' or 'kobknoblers' that seem like they were so much rage a while ago?


wheee!

No, Dukes was it's own company, I think done by Mike Ternasky(sp?).

dukes were made by duffs, at least at first.  It was like a one-off company.  I know the name was sold off at some point.  Last I saw, they were being sold at payless, and complete Dukes skateboards were being sold at Sports Authority.

The dukes were great shoes. I always assumed the black part on the sole by the toe and heel made them last longer- but I was a dumb kid.

Actaully dukes wasn't a one off company they had a couple of pairs of shoes after the Jeremy  wray shoe. They even had a team Jerry Fowler and somebody else were on it. I think they were made by the Same factory as Duffs but that was it.   It was Mike Ternaskys shoe company i'm not sure why they sold the name off to some bullshit company.
