Those white XLTs have been available at skatewarehouse for a couple weeks now. Only small sizes left but when they first popped up there was the full size run available. I don’t think they’re crazy limited but you do gotta act fast if you see them in your size

That’s what New Balance said. Maybe everyone should get in their dms and request it.

Why should we DM/request a vegan Tiago shoe that is already coming out?

If it’s a decent colorway, I may stock up and stop buying Rowley XLTs.

Since Sole Tech is dying, at least New Balance and Vans are starting to put out synth options. I don’t really count Adidas because half of their synth releases have only been available directly through Adidas, and not any shops.

Yeah #NB can hav me my money!
Also fuck you to adidas for making the model below super limited so that only fuccbois can purchase to sell at inflated price 3 days later, I guarantee maybe 5% of the total number of these shoes released actually even get skated. They said they would release through core shops but there was like one shop in the whole of Tokyo that got them…

Are you looking specifically on a Japanese adidas website? Because the US website still has a bunch of sizes left after releasing on Saturday

Anyone seen there's going to be a hemp Cat in the re-release of iPath?

Not holding me breath here, but we'll see.

Also great news on the possible vegan Tiagos!

I've spoken to a few shop owners but none of them have had contact with this supposed new company. grasshoppers in the OG rasta colorway would be a must buy.

Could be that with some fudged conversation messages or the person managing socials for NB and Roth haven't updated each other on where the plan to make a vegan Tiago is at. Either way, I'll take Roth's answer before that screenshot

Wait, 808s or 1010s? Didn't someone bring up that there is (or was) 1010s with synth materials?

It’s gotta be real! I dunno why they would say they are making it this year if it’s not in the works. That was me messaging them.

If it’s not true then it’s NB giving out the false news. Get in the dms and give the demand. I still believe it’ll happen though, don’t know why they would say it’s coming this year if it’s not happening

Curious to see how the Emerica vegan offerings continue as I was a big advocate for putting as many vegan and synth colorways into the line as possible knowing that market is rapidly growing and wanting something for everybody in the line. After every line build and noticing there weren’t any vegan options, I’d chime in and put my two cents in and then the design team would swap a few colorways for vegan ones. Hopefully they can continue this for you guys.

@SlapTM yes, will be interesting, and thanks once again for all your hard work. I have a feeling you are the one responsible for the black KSLs. eS seems to be offering less and less options these days too so I guess my money will go elsewhere in the future.

I was able to get the Always Superstars from the adidas site on launch day. I actually wound up getting both a 12 and a 12.5 because adidas sizing is inconsistent. I'm sticking with the 12.5s. There is zero heel-lock so I'm not sure how well they'll skate, but I've always loved the classic look of all-black superstars so they'll still get a lot of wear as chillers.
I saw those high resell prices so I put my 12s up on stockx, but no takers yet. Seems like those prices might be artificially high and no one's actually paying that. If they don't sell by this weekend I'll just return them to adidas.

Having said that, I think this year is looking bright for us: I-path and beautiful planet look like they’ll definitely bring out vegan options and hopefully LRAB can focally veganize their cupsole
