Re: Vans Syndicate x Carhartt 2013
This is what I hate About Vans Syndicate today. Remember retail on all the Syndicates from 2005-2010? They had a practical price point of $60-85. Yes the video is sick but tell me, where are the skaters that can afford $150 for a pair of vulcanized skate shoes that last 2-3 weeks tops on the deck?wolfstrice09 wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_D-S-1i ... ture=share
Total bullshit. I won't support $150 retail prices. Over a bill = over the hill.
Looking to buy:
.Blends Sk8 Hi in black, 8-9.5 would be accepted. If anyone here has a pair I will trade serious heat for them.
.007 Grime Slip On's (Claw, not the Skull version)
Will pay healthy prices for these. Shoot me a PM.

Re: Vans Syndicate x Carhartt 2013
there are plenty. the better question is, who would pay $150 for a shoe to skate in? skaters may still buy the shoe, but most won't actually skate in them.akamedaniel wrote:THIS.JesseC wrote: but tell me, where are the skaters that can afford $150 for a pair of vulcanized skate shoes

Vans does have a line of shoes outside of Syndicate that skaters but from, even the upcoming Syndicate releases are in the 65-80 range. However, these limited releases are not cheap, why they aren't, beats me.JesseC wrote:This is what I hate About Vans Syndicate today. Remember retail on all the Syndicates from 2005-2010?

Re: Vans Syndicate x Carhartt 2013
Yeah man that's what I'm saying. I just have a problem with brands that market to skaters when they make their product unrealistic to be skated in.
I understand that they're showcasing the characteristics of this collab and material choice, don't get me wrong. I just won't be able to justify shredding a pair or two
@Music City every shoe on the pro line lately is made out of garbage!

Union did just post the orange and blue on their Instagram, who knows, maybe those are the only colors they ordered.rescobot wrote:The yellow and black is probably instore.DJGuamstyles wrote:Noo blaaackkkk!!!!!

I mean the way I see it, Black is too simple & yellow is too wild, therefore Blue & Orange make up the middle ground and are probably the most logical selections if your trying to sell all your stock.

So will these be on WIP site? I have been non stop checking... Lol. Before i pull the trigger on the blue i wanna know. hahaDJGuamstyles wrote:Noo blaaackkkk!!!!! Weak. I bought the blue 12, which was my second choice. Well, we'll see what Carhartt store puts online I guess.
Re: Vans Syndicate x Carhartt 2013
This is definitely plausible. But to me, isn't a black Syndicate always a sure thing? Black can pull sales for other colors as well, many consumers in this hobby suffer from "well, it would be sick to have the whole set.." It seems like a brilliant marketing strategy to have black.akamedaniel wrote:Union did just post the orange and blue on their Instagram, who knows, maybe those are the only colors they ordered.rescobot wrote:The yellow and black is probably instore.DJGuamstyles wrote:Noo blaaackkkk!!!!!

Union typically hand selects specific colors for a lot of their orders.

Re: Vans Syndicate x Carhartt 2013
I went to Union today and was shocked they didn't have black, and I'm not gonna pay $170 on a blue or orange shoe. To be honest the shoe is a is good quality, bbbbuuuttt it doesn't really stick out to me. These easily could have been a California release to me, and $170 is just too much, that's $10 less than the Vault Blends, but the blends were completely worth, especially being a Sk8-Hi zip too.
