Primitive is out of control

[Dooky-shoes]

Primitive has gone too far. Megadeth? What the fuck
At least their other collabs were relevant to their fanbase.

Next up DGK doing a Pantera collab

Relevant to their fanbase.

[Mean salto]

I think they have a pretty big fanbase of people who just like to collect shit. So they will probably be fine.

[ziggy]

wearing merch of bands you don’t listen to sounds exactly like Primitive’s fanbase

some Kardashian wearing Slayer shirts kinda shit

[in love w/ fs shuvs]

I think it's dope that they take care of their riders. Raking in that zumiez money.

[mamba]

Good for primitive, raking in that money. They have their niche in skateboarding. That being said, I think they are corny as fuck and definitely won’t buy anything from them.

[Uh Oh]

Whattya mean I don’t believe in P-Rod, talk to him everyday..

[MusclesMarinara]

I'm a simple man, I like Megadeth and Primitive.

Also end thread

[urbneathme]

honestly i’m just impressed megadeth could pull off a deal with a company as big as primitive. this is the most relevant they’ve been in 25 years

[left knee cap]

they're about to come up with a Zildjian collab and I think... they've finally gotten me.

Core sells but whos buying

[Underpressureflips]

So I’m gonna get a heavily discounted megadeth shirt on zumiez in 6 months

The T2 collab was out of left field, but I have to admit it wasn’t the worst idea. Same with the Mr Rogers neighbourhood collection.

Primitive still doesn’t strongly appeal to me, but it’s getting more palatable and the team is overshadowing the image. I was eyeing wade’s night of the jaguar deck awhile back.

That’s actually rad, but if they do a Paiste collab I’m in

[EdLawndale]

The only piece of Primitive clothing that's on my radar rn is that Terminator 2 puffy jacket and I went to go buy it during their flash sale but they didn't have anything larger than a L.

[Atiba Applebum]

If only Consolidated did a collab with something besides an inflated sense of superiority they might still be around

[Cthunderw]

When you want to skate Spenny and Wade decks with those tasty Ventures but you don’t have $115 for some Naruto bullshit.

I get where you’re coming from but if it was a shoe company nobody would care as much. Not really sure the correlation between Lakai x Black Sabbath, Vans x Slayer, Nike SB x Gundam or Etnies x Colt 45 are but they all exist

Speaking of Colt 45, no less than Billy D. Williams, himself, once confided in me that Colt 45 does NOT, in fact, work every time.
True story.

[TheLurper]

P-Rod is a talented kook and Dave Mustaine is a talented kook what is not to get?

Lakai and Pacifico.  Maybe the ever successful trunk boys will make a comeback. 

I’ll say this. The primitive team is perhaps the best out there.   Honestly stacked with talent.  I don’t own anything primitive and don’t pay enough attention to all the collabs. Just saw the Pacifico Lakais at the local. 

Carlos Ribiero is gonna out out some serious material this year.  Miles is consistent.  I like Frankie.  PRod feels like he’s up to something. Tiago … them Brazilian rippers.  Spencer.  I’m sure I forgot someone. Miles Silva. 

However both can exist.  Being stacked and solid specific to team while absolutely rubbish in the product / design / style.  But a bunch of old dudes on slap are probably not the best measure of what is cool.

Has there been any other teams as talented that have the same product situation?

They remind me of a mid/late 90s brand with they cartoon  graphics. Like Shortys, DNA, Angel Boy, fucking golden state wheel company. Shit that the prod would’ve grew up on

The constant collabs definitely don’t help them fly under the radar

[somethingmustbreaknow]

their boards are good. so there's that. i like the team, the videos, and the bloards.
and also i really don't care about any of these recent collaborations they are doing.

How is this topic still going

[ziggy]

Primitive is the Forever 21 of skateboarding

[Captain Creampie]

The post Op recovery video of Giovanni whatever his surname is was quite frankly the least original/inspiring edit that could've been released in god knows how long.... not like its something uncommon so many skateboarders have that injury, why they bothered is beyond me.

[OldSkater]

I think it's dope that they take care of their riders. Raking in that zumiez money.

im not sure you know how companies work

this means more money for the four people who own primitive

not necessarily the riders.

Sure, a company that is raking in more profits MIGHT feel more comfortable paying their riders more

but it doesn't have to be that way, and I would venture a guess, most of these high profile collabs board companies are doing don't end up moving the needle on how much pros are paid.
