the skateboarder shoe  is such a Nike rip-off that I can't help but think they where turned down by Nike so they just stole the design and went with it.

I am shocked at how boring and lame this stuff really is. I had really high hopes for this company because I like Russ Popes art, I do think Eathan Flower is just cashing in at this point.

And no Vulc at all is just stupid. Horrible color ways and just plain boring design all around. Sad

I re-looked at them and thought that they really weren't quite as bad as everybody is making it seem they are just........so utterly un-good that its amazing........too generic......its sad that austin stevens and ethan fowler have got to be on here but......who knows,  maybe the shoes skate great......theres one or two that I could see myself wearing if I didn't get a nice discount on vans......its just one of those...its like "white noise" in the skate shoe industry or......I don't know...........I actually sort of hope that it takes off......

PS did anybody ever have memphis shoes???  I never saw what any of them looked like but wasn't oyola and somebody else good on there??


wheee!

they look like some shitty knock off brand that you would see at Wal-mart, but with some gay pastel colors

this is what i thought as well. (apart from the green skateboardmag ones, i still think those look good)
LS stands for little sidekick, lil shit lil slug/slime etc etc

maybe these are like those shoes that look better when you actually see people actually wearing them. probably not by much though.

The only time I have ever seen skate shoes that look this bad were at payless, but I have actually seen better looking skate shoes (though I am sure much worse for skating) at KMART.

there's a little bitterness there cause I had the best seller for Nadia but it went out of business before I could collect any royalty
money.Ronnie was an owner. So, being that I didn't break his fucking neck I'll just settle for clowning his designs.

ughhh, shoe royalties are something I paid life dues for. I guess if collecting something that's owed to me is greedy or selfish than that's not a problem.

It's not that I'm about me. It's more like... "cut the crap, we're not family"  "I skate for you and you pay me". It's more like a cut to the chase thing.

By the way, when I have something to give I give. During the La earthquakes who do you think was fucking up his week old Rodeo to haul shit away for the red cross? Who do you  think drove out to ederly couples homes to reorganize their belongings? When I rode for deluxe I'd go down there a lot and sometimes I'd go there to just get boxes of defected wheels to give away. I'd do this even if that's my sole purpose of going there. If the wheels  were gummy I'd give them another pair. I may be alot of things but a me-me-me has never been one of them.

For the record, you ASSUME Ronnie is a nice guy, which he is, and that's why I didn't even suspect anything shady out of him, but because of his horrid designs Nadia failed, and in failing he also failed me and my dream of collecting money on something I worked on for a lifetime. That said, I think it's not a big deal that I'm saying Ronnie can't design for shit.

You should have saw the drawings. Anyways, I never said I didn't think he deserved it. Ronnie is one of the best and most underrated skaters out there. It makes me sick that heads aren't mentioning his name enough.

He deserves a shoe, but for the buyers sakes, don't let him design it, there are people being payed over at etnies for designing shoes

I got a little familiar with this story, the one and only time i met corey sheppard was when he came through town probably about 4 years ago filming for the blind vid w/ weiss, he was kicking it at the shop out front having a butt and it was around the time that nadia had just gone under and he was wearing i-paths, and I asked him what was up with nadia going under and all that and all he had to say was "Fuckin' Creager..." and he walked into the shop...I asked creager this via myspace and he got all heated at me and said "HE WOULD NEVER SAY THAT THERE IS NO WAY U CAN BLAME THAT ON ME" or something to that extent, i'm glad i got multiple sides of the story sanch only confirms it.

Ronnie is a great person but maybe he just wasn't the right guy for the task. There must have been a lot of pressure on him since one would assume and side with nadia cause of his affiliation and guess that it's gonna work cause he's involved. Rumor has it he himself lost out on a lot of money to so he was also a victim  himself. I think if they would have been more open to materials and multiple designers they would have had a better chance of surviving. What it ultimately comes down to is decision making and saying ok, this sample is good let's run it.

Henry, did Kareem ever approach you to ride for Axion back when it was blowing up?  I'm kinda surprised you didn't get on when Guy, Gino, Enrique and those dudes were on.
