You fucking monorchid, late to the party, poser.

Lamenting the silver and pink box days, as something old-when that shit is/was for fashionistas and Supreme collectoids...and in the grand scheme of skateboarding, is some new-school cash grab shit by Nike.

Go pick out a new Thrasher shirt-it’ll match your trendy not skated in shoes, perfect.

I’ve skated pools with Lee Ralph.

I’m not going to dignify your sorry ass with another response.

Airwalks were never the shit.

Air walks were the first pro model skate shoe, the fuck are you talking about?

 

[Late]

Airwalk Jason Lees (the suede ones with the @ on the heel) were the shit.

 

[Lukejaywalker23]

Are you talking about LEE RALPH? Omg. Pictures or it didn't happen

Poser? Hahahahahaha naw bro go wear those airwalks with Lee

 

[geise]

I wore what lasted. Loved my blue suede airwalks and my natas etnies. Around 94 I just stuck with Etnies.

As a kid I mostly wore Gazelles because they were cheap; my mother refused to buy new, brand name skate shoes every 2-3 months. Said Gazelles were also fixed with various McGyver methods including hot glue and metal wire after the ollie area started to disintegrate.

So a few years later and I have moved into a 2000 square foot Skate shop and Tattoo shop combined. The pandemic has treated me a lot better than I thought it would. We have been at this new location for a year. This is not to bad considering it all started in 2017 with me selling things out of another persons business until what it is now.

Nice work.

 

[basic]

I'm old and set in my ways....

The most fashionable and hip thing about me is sometimes I wear different colour socks...

SSSSOOO... good luck on the new business pal... but don't expect me to order from you

Congrats man.

 

[racecar]

Congrats on the expansion, you never know what could have been until you take the plunges. It’s also good that you put multiple business in one shop one can compliment the other .

 

[wyo]

what's up @djjimmyjames glad to hear the business is going well brother

Wow. this is what I call a dream job. You must love waking up in the morning to start your day. I always wanted to to open a comic book shop and have a sitting area in the back for gatherings where I would have a few consoles hooked up to a TV and just sit at the till and practice some guitar riffs. Well done, bro and good luck.

 

[kingcuckmelon1]

Well done on doing what you love.

I wanna say you lucky mother fucker but really you decided to make the change and put the work in. Happy you found a way out of the regular grind man.
