Under The Palms

Oh man, that'd be sweet! Do you think wtaps would be up for it, though? I guess it's a re-release, but since wtaps said they wouldn't be putting out any more syndicates...

What's with the rumors of orange/timberland looking samples of these? Are they talking about tan suede or something? Sounds awful. haha

Yeah, when they were out I just procrastinated forever on getting a pair. Then they were all gone and rarely seem to pop up for sale. If you find any other 9.5's in those checkered slip-ons, let me know!

Nice job on those OG checkers! Been hunting those for a while since my old pair has been long gone. Finally gave up and just bought a fresh pair of GR's. haha

These look pretty awesome. I think I like them more than the black pairs, which is good since those are 99% unobtainable to me now. haha At least I'll have a chance with these! (maybe) haha

Didn't you enter by posting on instagram, Daniel?

Or was there some sort of other moose contest I didn't know about? haha

Was anybody here the winner of the contest OTH had for these?

Yeah, still considering it cuz the shoes are awesome, but not a fan of buying from people who can't even charge fair shipping rates. I'm almost more pissed off about that douchebaggery than I am about the actual price of the shoes, haha At least I know with the shoes I'm paying for the tech, even if...

Why is shipping $25 for in the US? That just adds salt to the wound for the price of these. haha

Does anyone want to sell me their patch? $40? let me know damn. 40 bucks.... you werent playing with that ocd :mrgreen: my only other option was buy 2 pairs to get 2 patches. i couldn't fuck with that. Haha, I ended up doing that cuz I found a sweet deal on a pair... haha However, if I decide to se...

Haha, just realized I ordered the whole darkside star wars pack for about $80-90 less than the sk8-hi in this set. My kind of dark side!

If anybody needs an 8, for some reason they're on sale for $100:

Yeah, I wish these weren't so close to the holidays! I'd probably feel more inclined to get them. And yeah, I know that the whole limited edition hype machine is all the rage right now (and always will be), but I am kind of getting tired of having a week or less to decide if I want a pair or to budg...

Yeah man, that price is a hurdle, especially around the Holidays. I'm sure it's partly due to materials, but it's probably also aimed at Darkside's clientele. It is a high end shop, like Union, and such, and perhaps 100 pairs of each model was their magic number to constitute that price point, but ...

These look awesome and I'm a sucker for Vans with awesome tech... But that price... Most likely passing and hoping to catch a pair on ebay below retail some day. haha Unless they sit around in their online shop long enough for me to ponder over it and decide to blow all that money on myself during h...
