After listening to that nine club episode, he claims he started a shoes company unlike any out there…but they look exactly like last resorts… like dude just admit you stole other shoe designs

Not to mention he talks about how he stole all his future designs and brought them to every new company he jumped over to.

Getting Garcia and Costa on will save on music costs for videos

The Sadim touch
The Sadim touch is the opposite of the Midas touch. With the Midas touch, everything you touch turns to gold. With the Sadim touch, you ruin everything you touch.

I feel like Jamie should know the shoe market by now to essentially doing the same thing as Last Resort with no logos.

I'd rather wear Cariumas, that's how much I despise the Chump.
If barefoot is also an option in that case I'd go for that.
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

I hate that he got Ed to cosign on this. I believe Austin Stephens is also involved, which probably also influenced Ed's decision to do something with the brand.

they remind me of State. There is personality laced into the brand of Last Resort by Pontus and the team. This will not have that. Just boring shoes.

Jamie saw the resounding success of Opus Footwear a mere year ago and knew he had to have a piece of the action

It's Last Resort if Pontus thought the height of fashion was to make everything in black, gray, or white.

Watched 3/4 of the nine club so far

This seems like a passion project where the desire to be creative and take a huge financial risk doesn’t align with some of story being told.

The glaringly obvious point that many people have mentioned is the existence of last resort, which organically and without any sort of weird industry push, is seemingly doing the same thing better regardless of the materials / More personality, a team, ACTUAL association with Europe (lol).

There seems to be a generational delusion here that a customer who would pass up last resort would move towards this brand just because of their high quality and tie in with different collabs and story telling.

While this seems like a cool portfolio piece and marketing experiment, I do think that this “white space” as he calls it in the industry has already been filled. Honestly I hope he succeeds because I like when skater owned companies do, but we need to be honest with what we’re being sold.

I also listened to a decent amount of this Nine Club because I hate Jamie Thomas. 

Found it hilarious that he essentially described wanting to do exactly what Last Resort has already done with their product offerings (but without paying a skate team) but presented it as a novel idea and then never mentioned Last Resort during the interview and instead referenced Hours is Yours as the other company currently filling this niche.  Dudes narcissism has him fully fried.
