[QUOTE=SHoGuNN3R;49983776]It's wayyyyyyy beyond that friend, skates shops actually care about local skate culture, are run by the same dudes you'd see at your local park, etc. it's the difference between shopping at your corner market and Safeway lmao Sure, Safeway has 2 for 1 jacks daniels microwavable pulled pork, but that corner market has your neighbor running it Also your zumiez probably put your local shop outta business lolol SO SUSPENDERS HUH[/QUOTE] I'm sorry guys, one last thing... What kind of an asshole doesn't support their local butcher?

Its not even fair to compare the two, you can get the same cut of meat at a chain and butchery. Its a bit harder to revive a local scene for something like skating.

[QUOTE=Nevermind.;49981792]1.)Macy's went out of business so it's the only clothing store, let alone skate shop within 50 miles of our campus besides Buckle and rue 21. 2.) It's free shipping for in store pickup and its more convenient than ordering to my dorm because I can't get my mail on Saturdays and Sundays. (The store is within 5 mins of my house 3.) Janoskis are 80$ for one pair and they are rated worse on durability than Lakai's 4.) Lakai is actually owned by skateboarders and isn't Nike. Not that I give a shit, but if you are going to say don't shop at Zumiez I'm guessing it's because it's not really a real skate shop. 5.) I don't know why you try so hard to be edgy, I think you have good style, but it's like you don't feel validated enough from that so you try to shitpost as hard as you can to get attention. 6.) Oh and a hot topic 7.) There are so many things wrong, WITH YOUR POST.[/QUOTE] zumiez fuckin suck get some good looking shoes lol emerica, huf, supra, converse, vans, adidas all better ps ur fuckin shoe wont make your ollie higher [editline]22nd March 2016[/editline] grab cheap ass hufs on walmart lmao i wish i could
[QUOTE=Uzbekistan;49985927]The Halloween pack Sauconys are some of the comfiest shoes I've ever worn[/QUOTE] Grid 9ks are pretty great but to be honest everything is ruined after the Ultra Boost. Also ugh my triple white ultra boosts aren't in that picture so i guess i gotta retake it :( [editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] also seriously, ultra boosts are the comfiest fucking shoe on the market right now [editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] SERIOUSLY
[QUOTE=SHoGuNN3R;49983495]not a skating thread but zumiez is pretty notorious for killing local business ozzboiiiiii so supporting your local shops in the states is a thing [/QUOTE] whenever i go to the states i love going to malls because our malls are nothing like them. u can get almost anything at a US mall. then again i order from american stores online all the time so an american mall is an exceptional place for me to shop and i could not care less about your local businesses lol

I honestly don't know how this entire stupid argument started considering I said that it was impossible for me to support a local skate shop because there isn't one. If there was one I would have gone there?!? [editline]22nd March 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;49985667]Bruh don't try to strawman now, food production and local culture are waaaay different. Its not even fair to compare the two, you can get the same cut of meat at a chain and butchery. Its a bit harder to revive a local scene for something like skating.[/QUOTE] What?? Food production is a way bigger part of my local culture than skateboarding could or ever would be. I live in the middle of the Palouse and the entire city is surrounded by farms. University of Idaho is one of the best agribusiness colleges in the nation. If people in Moscow don't buy from local farmers it changes what the farmers decide to grow and what livestock they raise. Downtown Moscow has a really cool farmers market that is usually really busy during the fall, if people stopped buying from there one of the most distinguishing aspects of the city's culture would be gone. [editline]22nd March 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=.Lain;49986038] ps ur fuckin shoe wont make your ollie higher[/QUOTE] It will if your previous shoe had large holes in the side of it that were patched with shoe goo, shoe goo just doesn't give you the same control as suede on griptape. I'm also really new to skateboarding so maybe I just got better I have no idea.
ollie involves almost no flick control. you just move your foot up and keep it there the pop is what matters, and your shoe has little to no effect on that
Okay, you're probably right. I have only been skateboarding for like 4 weeks, must have just been mental or coincidence. [editline]22nd March 2016[/editline] Also do we have a skateboarding thread?
Goddamn, I absolutely love the SLP aesthetic, but I don't think I'm ready to sink a ton of money into it yet, and it's not exactly appropriate for work. I just want to look like a rockstar, man.
any suggestions for shoes similar to the [URL="http://images.nike.com/is/image/DotCom/PDP_THUMB_RETINA/Nike-Free-50-724383_002.jpg"]Nike 5.0's[/URL]? they're my favorite shoes so I'd like to have something similar but not the exact same. and I'm a huge sucker for black/white.. But I'm not super familiar with the type of shoes beyond branding lol
I love white shoes but they always get dirty. That's why I always choose grey and black.
