I quite like them. Prefer them in grey

Actually can’t tell if that’s same colour way

All triple black trainers look Sports Direct / school uniform rebellion to me.

Gum sole and those would be good to go…agree on triple black, always have to find all black for my lads school shoes…..errm, trainers.
They’d fucking kill in OG KCK leather/suede actually 🙃

I had a pair of the all black ones too. I thought they were amazing. Just had to go back to look them up. Not sure they hold up as well as I thought…

They look like Alohas.
Hopefully they skate like them or they keep making both.

I posted that very same shoe as a non-Numeric version on here a few months ago saying I hoped they’d get made into a skate-adjacent version in a conservative colourway.
Just call me Mystic Meg.

Oooh. One less reason to ‘support’ Sole Tech.
\*support = never buy the product but store a deep rooted almost unconscious recognition that they are skater owned.

Nidecker are the world’s second-biggest snowboard company, so it looks like they’re expanding into board sports generally

If the new owners are skaters I hope they leave the sole tech guys to it . Lots of crossovers from skateboarding and snowboarding, loads of snowboarders I know skate .
If it’s going to be sold to anyone I’d rather it be Nidecker than a high street fashion brand that will asset strip and focus on price point shoes

More I see these, the more I like them. Being a tight arse not for £90 though. 30% off and I might.
I bet they’re ace to skate in.

A message from my good friend who’s a snowboard distributor for the UK and Europe when I told him.
“ No way!! they love to buy everything , they brought jones , bataleon , yes now and lobster a few years ago.
I know one of the brothers, pretty good skater he’s cool. Also they have got all the Swiss money , they own the rights to the Swiss flag logo so they ain’t gonna run out of cash , 💰 they will have got em for the 32 boots stuff but also they do skate the brothers at Nidecker are young and pretty cool so it should be a good thing I reckon .”
Sounds better than I expected

Yeah absolutely true , so anything with the flag ( Swiss army knifes etc ) is their cash cow .

That interview suggests he wouldn’t sell it someone who’s going to let it die or not look after the team.
