Brady and Rory both on Vans Europe
Ok didn’t know that, last piece of footage I saw from him he was wearing Reebok’s. Reebok don’t even have a team or anything like that do they?
They sort of skip in and out.
I think its more of an influencer marketing thing over a skate team setup.
God, we really are living in the future now, aren’t we?
Does vans have a UK team still or is just a Europe wide thing?
[/cmoac] Horse and I once got to do a supermarket sweep around the Globe (Hardcore?) distro warehouse in Melbourne years ago - it was fucking MASSIVE and had pretty much every brand you could imagine in there from skate stuff to street wear.
Theres like 3 separated UK teams and the Euro team, i believe.
What a selection!
Lol - you know what I mean - this was 06 too when regular skate stores didn’t fuck with expensive ‘street wear’.
They would give me work in there screening Dwindle boards when I was a bit skint.
I’d manage to live off of sending clips to Puzzle, random Oz videos (I think my best paid days work ever around then was filming an Oz Slalom contest. ha ha) and jumping on random tours but every now and then I’d fall short so I’d ring them up and they’d just let me come in and work for a week.
Was pretty amazing of them, to be honest.
That warehouse was huge. They’d let us take as many copies of the Globe Opinion or Gallaz DVD as we liked which was hilarious. I’d take copies into PSC and swap them for good shit like Mosaic and Really Sorry…Was so good.
I got on well with a girl who worked in shipping, too. She shipped my luggage and all the shit I’d accumulated over 10 months back to my mums. It beat me back to the UK.
just spotted Nakel is of Supreme, forgive slowness. what happened?
the Cherry video crew seemed super tight
He’s doing his own clothing brand now. Can’t remember what it’s called. He’s gone on a few rants about things
A dream no longer deferred.
Not a statement, that’s the fucking name of the company.
Raven of Nike.
Nakel held Mid90s together better than I’d imagined
Is that the film?
Someone on Slap in that Lotties thread said he’s in his “Jereme Rogers stage” of his career. I’m not sure on that, as hasn’t taken a load of shrooms and ran onto a building or something. Yet anyways.
Kind of funny bumping into Nak a couple of years back at an Earl gig in Bristol. I actually forgot he did/does some rapping and hung out with the OF lot.
I saw someone say Lotties was closed for some reason and they hoped it can re-open soon? Is that just because of covid in the U.S?
Last time I looked at their insta all seemed open and fine but now I just looked and bio says ‘Closed’ and comments turned off on all posts. Strange, hope it’s just temporary
And no one gives a fuck
