Fishing Lines Shoes

[mclovin1336]

Not sure whether this should go into the gear section but fuck it.

Mackrodt started a shoe line called as the series of clips he and wallner are doing: https://www.fishinglinesworldwide.com/collections/all



What's your take?

Edit: embedding the screenshot of the shoes doesnt work, so attached

I think they look pretty good. Not my style necessarily but looks like good design. There's an art teacher who's big into fishing and always wears Vans at my school. I'm gonna show him these badboys and see what he thinks. Could be the perfect crossover.

Damn extra pair of insoles and laces…. Kinda lux

[whaaaaat]

Who is macrkodt? And wallner as in patrick? These shoes are pretty bad. Look like poor quality versions of shoes that already exist in hundreds of other brand lines.

$107.00 haha

[Steely Daniel]

Cute but boring. The price is pretty gnarly and they don't even come in size 12. I will pass.

Gear madness here hasn’t evolved into foot wrapping to fit into smaller shoes for best board area to shoe surface contact ratio lol who gonna be the first

Gross. Long toe on skate shoes looks dumb.

[donkey]

They look like shoes you find in tj maxx

[doublesteveburger]

They look like shoes you find in tj maxx bass pro shops

I feel like these are just more of the "skate shoes disguised as dress shoes" brands that have been popping up a little more. Pretty meh.

[mfweeno]

Can't wait to shred in some fresh Hooker highs

[Murge]

They look like a less skate able,more expensive version of the emerica Dickson

[AsianVegan]

Fishing lines as a skate pun doesn't work at all, sorry.

Used to squeeze my size 13/14 feet into 11s and rip out insoles and any extra lining/padding. At the time it seemed worth it but years later I think I wouldn't recommend it

Michael Mackrodt and Patrick Wallner, yes. The two main guys behind the „fishing Lines“ Series of Clips


I find it pretty economically „brave“ of them to start a shoe company but they‘re not my cup of tea

Ya know I’m not really sure, I think it was Avril before and I just was like why don’t I find a skate celebrity to replace it with. Always thought she was dope too, she like works with kids and stuff and I always kinda respected that stuff, and her.

are you like a weird No Comply shove thing or something?

[offkilter]

Sorry to everyone involved, but there was no reason at all to start this company

[Lou Strux]

Gotta be the first time a shoe company has sprung from a video series, yeah?
GX got to that mark w/ decks already, and the Atlantic Drift guys were very nearly there too, but anybody got an example of shoes being birthed out of video(s)?
Seems so odd to me.

[funeral_tuxedo]

If I could even come close to pulling off the Hensley aesthetic of doc Martin looking shoes with cuffed blue jeans I'd do it in a fucking second.

Sweet really enjoyed the shortys ads, did Kris markovich actually hit? Or is that too forward?

[mclovin1336]

yes, I also think they are overestimating the "brand" value of their video series, despite the series being really great. I doubt it'll translate into shoe sales -- but hopefully it'll work out

[IpathCats]

.....Nah

[Stevezahn]

They look like a floppier version of the old lakai mj echelon

[Pipe Dreamer]

Hook, line and stinker.

[Bigfoot is real]

He has a family and is 43, man is bold! Starting a skate-footwear company whose sole marketing focus/ output is one person's (the owner of the company) web series with collectively less than 1 million views. I love an underdog story.

Hook, line and stinker.
