Shoes

Ah yeah! The TK pro shoe.

I just remember thinking ‘no self respecting skater would skate for that brand’

Killer and TK probs shouldn’t be used in the same phrase anymore.

Was Jeremy Rogers on them too? I remember seeing the dvd back when I would pick up any skate video and thinking it looked too crap to watch.

An hour? Oh fuck no

Is that the one where he’s being annoying, walking around Japan shouting at everyone?

I’m not sure Reebok were involved with Ice Cream but they did the DGK shoes which I feel get missed out in a lot of the “shoes of the past” talk. Feel like if Reebok decided to reissue some of these people (not us) would go nuts for them. Especially if they were still DGK collabs.

I couldn’t find decent pictures but the navy/yellow, white/gum and grey/camo Workout Los would sell like hotcakes.

I agree, it’s pretty much what Palace have done a few times over the years with this being a recent example:

My ‘skate’ shoes of choice since the 90’s.

Nike Wimbledon/ Tennis Classic.

Converse Dr J low/ Pro Leather.

Reebok Workout.

Always white leather.

I just stick in a decent insole and they’re good to go.

It’s a bit of a weird thing to post in a shoe thread on a skate forum but I can’t remember the last time I was really stoked on an actual skate shoe. SLB’s, Koston Ones or Guy’s first Axion maybe?

I’ve got one of those basketball rubber Club Cs somewhere, from the dgk demo at the works.

Bilyeu getting a Lynx OG which I think is pretty cool. I’m a huge fan of that shoe.

2nded. only began skating these a few years back, but my feet love them
(so much more than the diet of Accels they’d been fed for years)

I’ve seen it work occasionally but in general white leather would just rip to bits right?

Idk, works for me. I don’t seem to have any problems with it.

+1 on the Workouts, got a sale pair a few months back for £35 & really decent for skating, even if the stiches get destroyed pretty quick

Other than the insole switch up I carefully apply a couple of drops of this on any vulnerable looking stitching before I skate mine and it generally does the trick.

Shipman in the all white versions was a strong look

Sadly lost the System mags I had many years ago, always hoped some would appear on eBay but never seen 'em
