Those Rowans look pretty goofy but I bet they skate amazing.

Does it have a regular Vulc or does it have a special sole?

[close]

It looks like a regular Vulc shoe. No Vans waffle control (vulc/cup)

At least it’s not clear

[snowman600]

rowan's shoe looks like it was designed by jerry hsu
edit: they're growing on me. throw some fatter laces and rock a Matt Reason kit and bob's your uncle.

[lamfordie]

Anyone get a screenshot of that Kalis shoe with the lynx sole

[cricketclub]

Might as well put up a visual.
Vans duracap/toebox has been getting outta control for a minute now.

Those are nice. I bet they are good for a vulc

They're like Kohl's Half Cabs.... Still gonna get them

[Shuh]

Rowan probably wanted a low cab but he needs that pro model money, it's understandable. I wanna see how this this shoe and Shane's shoe will fare this year.

Aside from the overall design being extremely “cabbish” the pair with the black sole kinda look like something Airwalk would’ve made in about 1994. And I like that a lot.

[Turtle Boy]

I'd rather get the Rowley classic reissues than those Rowan's...

[jay_nev]

Yeah rowley reissues seem real nice, anyone review those?

and at least there isn’t the contrasting white vans swoosh on em to make them look so similar to every other model. The alt V logo on tongue is not my favorite but looks like good ankle padding.

Not sure if vans/ Rowan are trolling us or not ...  but they look like something Simon Woodstock would have designed in 94’ to go with his clown costume 🤔

The Simon Woodstock colorways sucked but the actual silhouette looked like it would skate well IMO.

Seems like the kinda place a trust fund kid would shop at

[close]

noah has to be the most confusing company ever. if you look in their shop, it looks like preppy, trust fund kid clothes at trust fund kid prices. yet skaters are supposed to be somewhere in that target market? i know they cant actually be selling to us. $430 dollars is a lot of gear and beer money. its also their pricing on one of their sweaters. supposedly they use the "best materials" and "best practices" but who is really buying this shit?

their style direction is all over the place, from preppy to skate inspired to nautical to "christiancore." its like they have an identity crisis every season. ive literally seen only one person skating in their shit and it had to have been the cringiest hoodie ever with a unironic fucking bible verse on it retailing at $150. i know if i asked the kid about it, he would immediately talk to me like im out of the loop as if its supposedly a cool piece because of their supreme connection of some stupid shit. or maybe because its "rare" and printed on premium cotton. or maybe its cool because the sucker shelled out $150 for some regular ass hoodie with a graphic on it.

i had high hopes for this brand when it came out but its utter bullshit now. i wouldnt be caught dead paying for their clothes just to dress like an ivy league wannabe or an asian exchange student. sure its expensive and supposedly ethical in some way, but that doesnt make it good or worth the investment. they come off as tasteless and corny to me and wish they were not connected to skating at all. especially since skaters arent the people keeping them in business. id bet money that the people in their clips arent paying retail for their gear if they are paying at all. i understand the supreme connection and all, but it seems so forced

I just went and perused their online store. I closed the browser window feeling baffled. Sometimes I wish I was made of the kind of money where I could blow $600 on a hooded sweatshirt, but most of the time I'm grateful I don't have that kind of money because the truth is I might be that stupid to blow it on that ugly shit in order to feel better about myself.

well, damn.

Are these going to be general release or only FTC?

[FROTHY]

Those Rowans might actually be too Kohls for Kohls.

well there you go then; vans  could come up with better silhouettes in 97 than in 2020

Holy shit those white/black Swift 1.5's are dope. Too many nice shoes coming out in the spring when I'm already stocked up on kicks.

The pricing, a few cut and sew pieces aside, is on point with the rest of streetwear. $30-50 for tshirts is pretty standard now. I just recently paid $80 for a GX hoodie, its a standard blank independent hoodie with single color gx branding screened. So $150 for a noah hoodie that, doesn't appear to be run of the mill screen printing blank,  has 2 color screening and 2 color embroidery, plus custom tagging is on par.

All that being said I'm not buying their shit. Feels like J.Crew X Vetements

[close]

their pricing from a streetwear standpoint makes sense but the piece im referring to didnt have all of those details. it was probably not a regular blank but there was no cut and sew and was only one color screened. the graphic was literally dogshit. just a bible verse as a back graphic and nothing in the front other than a dime size embroidered "noah" logo that you can see if you put glasses on and squint. if i didnt know what it was, i would have thought he just came from a prayer group or christian summer camp. i can understand the pricing for some of their stuff, but id need an explanation on why that was sold for over $100 let alone $80.

i love my streetwear and have obviously overpaid for a ton of shit but i find no reason to give them my money. i feel like a really specific type of person is into their clothes and i also have a gut feeling theyre an insufferable asshole

the hoodie you're referencing sounds pretty bad graphic wise, but they're made in canada and high quality. i have a zip up from them and it's one of the best articles of clothing i've ever owned. the pricing is kinda crazy though, i've only bought anything from them when they do sales like 20%-40% off, but i appreciate they are transparent about their production and put out anti-consumerist messages (even though it just makes idiots like me feel better about consuming more). it's kind of like patagonia where it's expensive but ethical enough so you don't feel that bad about giving them money.

Pontus starting a new shoe brand?

$210.12

• Stitched rubber cup sole
• Premium Italian suede upper
• Fully lined cow leather
• Two sets of cotton laces
• Dust bag and box
• Made in Portugal

Honestly for being made in Portugal with Italian suede and looking pretty nice I am surprised these aren't more expensive. I would buy these over any other designer shoes I've seen... not that I plan to.

They are essentially the same retail price as a pair of J's while actually being luxury. I would say this is a good bet if you wanted some designer sneakers. 

That toe box looks just like the NB440.

[Watson]

Yeah he must just mean his new go-to company, or who he's getting shoes from. Pretty cool though, the company seems cool.

or basically any other fucking black and white vulcanized vans shoes?

for the record i think those look awful with that ollie patch, but if I hear one more thing about kohls vans I'm going to lose it

[iwishilivedinfinla]

he literally modeled it after the Kohl's shoe dude, jesus christ

it's been talked about in here for almost a year now

[Watson]

I think the Bearcat is sick to be honest.
