Chima 2 looks good. His first shoe is an inch away from being unskateable.
Was the Chima Estate technically his second model or just a midtop Chima 1? I never saw them at skate shops...just once while walking past a Zumiez or some shit.

I don't know if Vans counted it as a second model but it's a midtop Chima 1 with a toe cap. My wife got me some at the outlet and they're like Frankenstein shoes. Somehow the material is so thin but the shoe is so stiff. It has one of those heel cups engineered to destroy your feet. I thought they would be baggy and good boardfeel but they ain't.

they look awesome, like a beefed up chukka that maybe didn't cause instant heel bruises
They have 1 last pair of the maroon in 10 for the low!
I was denied while trying to get the last size 13, i'm very sad to hear they were Frank N. Stein's pro model!

Why can’t they just make a plain black suede matchcourt slip on? Also off topic but Tate you got any news if the g code is gonna stay more than one season ?

Whoa you still have a pair? What size? I might be willing to buy them off you. I'm still mad at myself for getting rid of them when they had a ton of life left

Hupper 2 High in July. Oddly enough, they are doing away with the Huf Classic Low and High...I guess a lot of the guys that work for them are trying to push back, as I too thought this was a staple shoe for that line....

That's crazy they are gonna stop the classic but hopefully it will lead to better shoes.

AGREED! The matchcourt fits my weird wide foot, but that canvas sucks and the leather is so ugly.

The Crocketts look narrow, are they? Some Vans like the Era and Authentic pinch the fuck out of my toes and the Crockett shape looks similar. The Kyle Walkers are great as well.

Sadly, I doubt their decision of getting rid of the Classic had anything to do with the quality. It was probably because of the lack of branding. I can see HUF making Hupper 2 Vulcs or releasing a Classic 2 with H-logos on the sides.

Maybe he's retiring. He more or less retired four years ago.

Adidas City Cup:



An OG Lucas colorway:


Been waiting for those city cups to drop in a while, I want the white and gum tho... 

And those lucas are damn good! I have a pair of black/white coming in my way. I really like the way they skate, much more than I thought the first time I got a pair.

Know what you mean, mine felt like that when I first walked in them but I tied them a tiny bit tighter and have been skating them for a month and a half now, and they're really good to skate in and last well. Got 3 more pairs since! We all have different feet though.
