I'm more thinking it looks like that Wes Kramer shoe. But with a stitched toecap and more complicated collar.

Both are SD boys, and Braden's the right age that I bet he was a Wes fan from a young age.

Sounds like it's exactly what Braden wanted, in terms of design, from this interview with the designer at Emerica. Lots of times if a skater gets exactly what they want... it ends up not pushing the style or innovation barometer. But I bet it skates great... I recently skated the Provost on that same vulc chassis, and it was great! Better than other vulc shoes I've skated in the last few years.

"Are there new trends to be aware of for next season?
We see color beyond black-and-white skate shoes trending in skate footwear. This season we have put a focus on bringing more interesting colorways to the line while still keeping it wearable and true to Emerica. We continue to see the 90’s and early 00’s trend resonating with skaters across generations. Rest assured there’s plenty of nostalgic flavor represented in this season’s line to satisfy skaters of all ages."

This made it sound like Emerica just discovered that people like colorways other than black and white. I lol'd.

Are you introducing any new technology this season?
Yes. The Hoban will feature Enduraseam technology, which is a rolled edge toe cap with triple stitching.No.
"we are implementing a new technology where we take away the g6 cupsole that everyone likes and downgrade the spanky his to an eva."

Man first they axe g6 foam midsoles and now this shit. I fucking love emerica despite their many flaws, but that love is fading more and more with every vulc and shitty egg crate rubber cupsole release…

Yeah, what a terrible decision. I get pushing it back (maybe), but to cut it completely? Oof.

I agree, it is like seeing the post that my ex is married and pregnant from a burner Instagram account. UNFOLLOWED.

someone made an IG reel of his shoe getting cancelled and he liked and replied to it and said yes it’s “permanently shelved” all of a sudden do to the buyout. Some people even chimed in and said they got refunded for a couple preorders through THURO.

Not want to confuse anyone any more. But here is my Sole Tech experience.

Cups: true to size
Vulcs: half size down
