Want both of them - the chukka is much appreciated and the Carrol I coud never get back in the days - it’s only Canda - or US  or globally sold?

I feel like all releases just roll out at random
Shops/dates/times at this point (still can’t find the Es Pennys in Canada anywhere). I can’t imagine these won’t be global…probably sitting on loading docks right now

I didn’t screen shot Kalis pulling the Truth samples out of his box because I figured “Hell, someone else will do it” and I didn’t want to be the guy to only post about DC all the time… but I’ll be damned if they aren’t on here…

Nice, the truth was the very first pair of DCs I ever owned. And maybe my second pair of skate shoes. I got them at Ross and they were a size too big.

I fucking loved them

Hah yeah my mental image of it I thought “yeah ok I see it” but then seeing the actual image again…hah!

Also, after seeing those brand new images of Jupiter, I just don’t see it as brown anymore

Got my hands on them and I can confirm that they are amazing in person. Definitely going to be trying to get my hands on more colorways whenever they roll out.

These ones have VCU (vans checkerboard union) in the name and on the hang tag, meaning they will only drop in certain skate shops. This isn’t an issue for me cuz i got one close by, but I’m pretty sure this is going to be the trend with these cuz I haven’t seen them in any regular vans skate catalogs yet.

Looking forward to getting the Pink Aloha Super's when they hit clearance. Still considering Kalis OG Butter Goods, but on the fence.

I think at this point I see Dime less as a skate brand and more as a second or third tier streetwear brand.

Can you tell me which brands are first and second tier street/skate wear brands? I am always looking for quality stuff.

i think franco sketches his style out for video parts because everytime i've seen him at tompkins he's fucking killing it. he was doing back lip kickflips out on the box perfectly for like 2 hours straight once. gotta love it

Don't think it's standard. I thought the Truth was shit even when it came out.

Ok good.   I was a huge Kalis head when the first ones came out and then those dropped and my enthusiasm flagged hard bc it just felt like a watered down version and the kind of shoes my friends who skated but didn’t really think about shoes wore

DC also got bought out by quiksilver so they have the advantage of being part of a bigger corporate umbrella w more resources. sole tech has been under the same ownership since its inception so as a smaller company with less resources I would think raising prices is the only way for them to ensure the same profit margins as global economies get shittier and shittier. still can't believe accel ogs are going for $85+ now, I was so lucky when I got a pair for $35 off of depop a month ago

The legacy Slims were the first DC shoe I had skated since the Truth came out way back when. I’d be interested to try them just for nostalgia purposes. DC generally makes a quality cupsole

Not exactly how these things always work. Quik's majority owner is a publicly traded asset management firm. Sole's majority owner is still just Pierre. DC might have access to some resources connected to Quik's sc, but if Quik ever ends up in financial issues they're going to pull from the subsidiary wells to keep things afloat. And on the other side of that, while Sole Tech might be limited in some aspects like pricing volatility for their sc, they've got full autonomy to dump cash into R&D (STI Labs) to advance products like foam because they owe no regular dividends to investors.
