wondering what percentage he actually owns

Quote from: I sniff my own butthole all the time
2nd vote would be for PJ. sometimes it is a fine command of the english language to say nothing and he extended that to skating. PJ's plan B part is the emperor's new clothes.

seems like this is probably how it went:
marc - "plz collab with lakai"
luis - "no"
marc - "plz join as tm"
luis - "no"
marc - "i will give u ownership if you be tm and get me a team"
luis - "ok"
marc - "you now have one ownership"

Ouf, that's a tough one but Berra is way too much of a scientology piece of shit so I guess Lakai.
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

These comments are insane on that dorks video. The amount of people that prob never even supported lakai in the first place, all of a sudden are so stoked that some youtube idiot "I OWN LAKAI"

If someone told me 10 years ago that ipath would be cooler than lakai, I would've thought I was having a stroke.

Tim Gavin, Rick, and Mike were at the local shop a couple days ago. I wonder if something new is in the works or they could just bring back fourstar.

it must be crazy when chico sells you something and the tables switch from "give me my money chico" to "giving my money to chico"

Honestly not a crazy take in 2015
Quoting another poster without commenting anything yourself is the most annoying form of virtue signaling on the internet IMO. Just so lazy.

That Gabryel dude and Bastien are the only reasons I’m even remotely interested in their stuff, but honestly wish the company would just die

Old team was stale and needed a revamp, you can’t hold onto name recognition forever.

As Gordon Ramsey always said “move with the times before the times move you”.. the times had moved Lakai, it was the laughing stock of the skate shop shoe shelf, and everyone knows it!

This is an attempt to keep a dying skate brand alive and honestly, the skating was really good.

Let’s see where this goes..

This is like asking if you’d rather be kicked in the balls or punched in the balls. But, the chance to make Berra cry in front of me is incredibly tempting.

Lakai, and I say this as someone who has had quite a few pairs over the years, have always been on the lesser side of things when it came to quality.
BUT, they were cool bc Rick and Mike and the rest of the team made them look cool. I remember pining over MJ3s and the Mariano shoe with the Italian flag colors for the logo after Fully Flared dropped. While not outstanding shoes, I loved them bc I was supporting Rick and Mike et al.
Not having a single soul, including the founders of the goddamned company, no matter how lackadaisically they handled it up to this point, makes it no longer the same Lakai I grew up with.
Fuck Lakai and this Marc dude.

Kind of fried that Louis Mora is like the brand manager or some shit after doing all that shit with Kyonosuke. It's like being dumped by your partner and in comes your friend, but their "just talking", it's nothing serious...

But I mean, it's all just business... Right?

Agreed. It's borderline painful to witness.

On one hand you have everyone saying how much Lakai sucks, on the other hand they can’t believe Kyo is of. I think it’s a good thing he moved on. I’d rather see him on Cons, even if it’s just flow.
