Looks like we’re finally getting some Skate Halfcabs

I'm also intrigued with those decathlons. They don't look terrible. The only knowledge and experience I have with Decathlon was going into one of their stores in Emeryville, CA in 2019. The store seemed kind of goofy, like a version of Big 5 Sporting Goods. I did purchase a cheap pair of rubber sandals that I still wear to the beach occasionally.

I feel like these are 23 years too late…

There's also a canvas Crockett low but it looks like the jazz stripe is genuine leather

Very reminiscent of the Carhartt canvas halfcabs that came out about 15 years ago (not complaining...i was always bummed i missed out on those)

[BloodyElbows]

is that the only colorway of halfcabs that we get?

[Too Frank To Fred]

Wish they'd do a synesthetic panel on the toe/ ollie area and keep the rest canvas.

IVans CricketCabs, I see where you’re going

Full canvas? No suede backing?

Looks like JT´s new shoe brand is colab-ing with the Tempster right out of the gate. Probably safe to assume there will be a vegan shoe dropping sometime soon?

Has been confirmed already in the comments, which is pretty nice.
The shoe looks really clean. Unfortunately people from EU have to wait a little longer. For now just UK release.

Are Gillette's Globe shoe vegan?
Not that I care but just got another pair for 23€ and description seems pretty synthetic to me.

The waxed canvas ones, yeah. There are full suede versions tho too

[sebbo]

Apparently the hightop is 110$. Not sure about the slip-on but it looks like 100$.

I'm interested to try the corduroy VM003's from the newest LRAB drop because they have the "padded" collar that so far only the suede version VM003's have had. But it's interesting that the LRAB site doesn't label them as vegan, which they're usually pretty good about doing...

Rolled the dice and bought these with a discount code from CCS because of their free return policy, just in case. Material sticker indicates fabric upper, so I think these are good to go (unless there’s wool or something in the corduroy material, but that would be weird, pretty sure it’s almost always a cotton/poly material). LRAB is good about communicating on social media so I guess I’ll just ask directly.

Yeah, I got those about 8-10 months ago(?) but you have to be careful because there's a newer version that is essentially the exact same colorway but genuine leather/nubuck. I think most of these retros of old colorways for the 25th anniversary (e.g. the navy ones above) are all synth, just looking for confirmation.

[kneebone]

a new colorway of Crockett decons too

[The real veganshawn]

Fuck Rowley, wouldn't give that dude any money.

Sorry been away all week and I didn’t see this. It looks like the XLT’s are all synthetic. Pals hit me up anytime if you think I might have answers to vegan shoe questions.

[DERBY]

vans and converse need to learn how to not fuck up a potential vegan release. Like if you’re gonna drop a canvas release don’t try to include a leather jazz stripe or leather tab just for the fucks of it. yall seriously dumb as fuck

[The real veganshawn]

Great shoes, will check these out
