this! Having said that, both look like they have no fucking support whatsoever and I’m not exactly digging how he went with an all plastic upper and then bragged about it being vegan. Yes, it’s “vegan”  but unless it’s some sort of recycled ocean plastic or something then I don’t even think it’s worth mentioning ...

Id take that friends and family color of Blondey's shoe over whatever the fuck Tyshawn had for his family and friends color for his shoe. That's hard to say because I'm wearing Tyshawn's pro shoe and its among the best and most comfortable shoes ive ever worn

What non-plastic vegan options are there other than canvas though?

Lol at the intern who never touched a skateboard tasked with taking that product photo of the back pack.

Is Circa sharing the same office with Osiris? Also, websites are the same.

he could have hemped it up no? Microfiber is another alternative and there’s biodegradable versions. Mushroom leather? Recycled fish nets?
Honestly if you have access to adidas tech and the only vegan option you can come up with is clear plastic then ... well I guess you’re name is blondey and you’re an adlay cosplayer

Microfiber is just plastic though. The shoes are wack as fuck but it’s not like any other common vegan material other than canvas would be much more environmentally friendly. I’m all for more environmentally friendly stuff and would love shoes to be made from non-fossil based biodegradable materials but literally no one does that these days so blaming Blondey for such in this case just doesn’t hold up.

there is eco friendly biodegradable italin microfibre and as I also mentioned mushroom leather. Adidas is the only brand doing shoes In recycled fishing nets at the moment right? Hemp them shits up and chuck some fishing net toe caps/ ollie pads on it. If he rode for soletech, then sure, but it just seems like a lazy choice when designing a shoe for a company with big resources (and let’s face it, price isn’t really a concern with palace fuccbois). But you’re right, he’s not Kenny Anderson so perhaps I was expecting a bit too much...

I think you're missing the fact that he set out to make a clear plastic shoe, which happens to be vegan. He didn't choose clear plastic because it's a vegan option.

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

↑ good point! Again, I definitely shouldn’t have expected anything from Blondey in this regard, I’ll save my high hopes for Ryan Lay and Kenny A

[Roisto]

I'd love to be proven wrong but I don't think Adidas or any other major (core or non-core) brand would go with some unproven environmentally friendly tech all that easily. There's just not enough money in it as most people don't give a fuck. The fuccbois will much rather buy a clear plastic shoe than one made out of materials that destroy our environment as little as possible. From my understanding the rubber used in shoes is mostly synthetic also. Fossil based? Dunno, but I'd think so. Biodegradable? Dunno, but I would certainly fucking hope so. 😐

[FROTHY]

Unfortunately, you can safely assume all of your plastic and rubber is a petroleum derivative that has been rendered non-biodegradable unless it's advertised otherwise.

Patagonia does a lot of stuff with natural rubber. I think it's cool, but you'll definitely notice it in the price tag.

The NHL All-Star jerseys from last year were largely made of recycled plastic crap from the ocean. They were actually made by Adidas, now that I think of it. I think that's a good way to go for materials with a smaller footprint, especially mesh-like stuff that can be made from woven garbage essentially.

Kinda off-topic but..

Something I've noticed is that ppl say and use the word plastic like there's only 1 type of plastic. It's probably more like thousands of chemical compounds that fall in the plastics family.

I don't think recycling is really gonna be a big help. The problem is our global overuse of petrochemicals. This overuse of plastics and their uncontrolled release into the environment is the disease.. Recycling just helps correct a symptom of this disease.. Same with cleaning up our oceans and beaches.. The disease persists..
Plus that shit is usually just 5% recycled material. Trust me, 5% ain't shit. I could cut 5% off of YOU and you'd likely survive. Fuckin 5%!!
Maybe some brands do more, honestly don't pay too much attention to plastic clothes.
And biodegradable? Degrades into what? I'm guessing a bunch of yummy yummy chemicals that seep into the environment and work their way up the food chain. Great. I've always thought fish should taste more plasticy.

Don't believe me about overuse?
Try to do a day without plastic. Or rubber..
This could mean no clothes, shoes, phone, computer, skateboard, lights switches, bank card, food, water..
It's either made of plastic or had to touch plastic to get to you..
Water? Most pipes are plastic now, and the cartridge in faucets is made of plastic.
Seriously. Just try *thinking* about 1 day without plastics..

Chill out satan. We're not talking about saving the world with our next shoe purchase. It's just a good alternative to have if you are going to buy some shit anyway.

And yeah, people say "plastic", including scientists who know exactly what they're talking about.

[satan]

What? These guys can drivel on and on about their recycling microfleeces but I can't point out the bigger issue with plastics?
Thank you for being the hall monitor on this one. I stand corrected. Returning to my lane..

[satan]

Ok. Let's take it back to shoes, huh?

Is Supra dead dead? Or a zombie company hoping for a buyer?
And we're getting blessed with the Mucka2000?
But missing out on a Penny shoe? Don't think I've seen you guys mention a Penny shoe.

I'm having trouble with this link. Hopefully it works for you guys.

link works for me! i wonder if they have different plans for the Europe vs USA branches? that one pic of the Penny shoe got me curious for sure, and i only wear low tops nowadays. kinda looks like that Stevie shoe they had from that angle? or also the "Atom" or whatever? for the 23y42734th time: im a huge supra fan, so i'd love for them to stick around...

also, just as a nerdy addendum: biodegradable means it's made of or can be turned into "labile" (i.e. readily available/useful) compounds, usually done by decomposers like bacteria and fungi, much like any other organic source they'd use for nutrients. non-biodegradable (micro)plastics are what is being accumulated in the ocean and in our seafood!

Those Pennys look hella dope. Thought Supra was over?

Never thought I'd like anything from Supra, but they do look nice. If they come out I'd consider getting a pair.

[whatsreallygood]

So is Supra gonna be a zombie company that still sells shoes but doesn't have a proper team?

[weon]

Their website’s team page got pretty small: Spencer, Muska, Penny, Plumb, Daley. That’s it.
