I vaguely remember one of yall saying they were winding down their skate program, was that speculation based on nike acquisition?
[close]
i mean nike's owned converse since 2003 so i feel like if they were gonna ramp down programs it would've been a while ago

I said "something" maby you misunderstood me.

I think everything Converse is doing ist just marketing to sell more Chuck Taylor, also Nike only bought in - to have that best selling / cheapest in production sneaker in the porfolio.

But this message was not Cons/ Nike Skateboarding related- for them Skateboarding is only marketing anyway.
It was a general statement.  Chuck Tayler is the license to print money. bought my first one 35 years ago and since then there where no time that the majority of the kids didt rock them. All other shoes had highs and lows - but Chuck is running well since forever. Super cheap in production and everyone is buying the same 5 color ways.
They absolutely dont gave a a flying fuck about producing and selling a dope skateshoe.
A "cool" collab - or a Louie Colorway ist just social media content.

The way he kept saying it’ll be different and very skate I expected a dunk look alike or a half cab or something more mid 2000s Reynolds type shoe.

I used to like Austyn but the way he talked about that shoe and that whole process and seeing the result makes me side more with team Berle.

There was another Chuck Taylor that had high rubber side wall but I can’t find them currently. Remind me of these though.

I’m on mobile, I’ll fix the link later

I didn’t know Austyn was taking style cues from Straye.

who ever took that low res catalogue shot, post the whole thing, keen to see more than a crap screen grab of what Globe's trying to do, to be cool again. I had some chunky boys in high school 1998 and Globe were the tits

Anyone else cave and buy the Lotties Half Cabs? I definitely don’t need another pair of shoes but I couldn’t resist.

Feel like I’ve probably missed them in this thread but does anyone have photos or the Emerica catalogue with Spanky’s high-top pro model?

Saw him skating a pair with like a pewter upper/black sole (similar to that bungee/black Crockett high colourway) and I’m pretty intrigued.

Catalog photos haven’t popped up yet. Just whatever he’s wearing on IG.

I kinda hope half cabs diversify themselves a bit colorway wise.  It’s the 30th anniversary and they’re the 3rd blue colorway this year  (I would have kept the Lotties as the primary one) and the Berle one is fairly close to one of the first ones, just with a black sole


Give us this one.   They barely made any when they were released:

The uprise ones are so good.
I have the white ones with the black tongue and I can’t wear them…because I want to do them some justice. Ridiculous

I got those too but it was that funky insole that always caused heel slippage. 


These gold ones literally sold out in like an hour bc they made so few.   I tried to stretch out a size down and change the insole to something thinner, but I was just fooling myself

I bought a pair last week at my local Vans store. Beautiful color.
How much for an order of ribs?
