The shoe game has pt 2

Comments

about the love people have for Luan is kind of what happens when you see "youtuber react to *insert a brazilian media here*", so it gets flooded with comments and stuff, as any latino person in a very american industry such as skateboarding, the fact that he was the only relevant brazilian skater in the main contests for a while(sls 2014-2016) and he really had a successful career at that time and with all that he still kept living in Brasil, his skateshop promotes and used to make some of the main contests and events in Brasil, etc. he really did a lot for the scene here and people look at that almost more than they look at the skating aspect of him as a pro. another thing about his skating being outdated, Brasil is a very poor country with not a lot of internet access(till recent years) and very few people speak english so trends take a while to arrive, I think for a lot of people his type of skating is cool as fuck as it was when compared to other contest skaters 10 years ago. Most of the brazilians who are still on par with modern skating are either privileged for our standards or live outside Brasil, such as Tiago, Fortunato, Carlos, etc

swagboy

Hey I don’t know why but the last few videos on here haven’t been playing for me, does anyone know why?

Caeden

hope u doing well joa!

Max Reid

the dunk high are my favorites. an accel og mid/high would be interesting too

Larry David's Prius

I ordered some emerica winos because of this comment section and they are comedically small, like at least 3 sizes smaller than the same size in a vans slip on. They seem decent aside from that for the money, but something is fucked up over there.

Ginwoo's Baldest Fan

I am an accountant. I also wear new balance 440.

Fenix Gordon

Vans isn’t helping their case either when every pair of shoes I’ve bought from them has fallen apart in the worst way where the rubber pops out of the bottom. And now that they are pretty much the same price as Nike also there is no upside to vans.

Shit Pigeon

Reynolds turned me N and there is a 100% chance I check his shoe out when it drops.

Andz

too bad the telfords suck ass

@nomidshit

dude I was going to reply since when did Chris have allegations until I read this

@nomidshit

hot take with nike my g your hugo simp is showing

Jack The Human

**Not to be confused with Chris Chann the skater and Saks 5th Ave extraordinaire**

Berra Hater

Idk why but when I saw those Haribo Vans, I said to myself "those look like Chris Chan pro models" fitting you would say they look like predator shoes

Berra Hater

I be waiting for them Tevas baby

Berra Hater

same. went to the shop the day after calling everyone who won and still had people “camping out” to come in and try to buy some

bret jee

I think that’s how they started, I remember seeing a ton of Instagram ads from them as a lifestyle shoe before they started the skate program. Wonder if Berra saw an opportunity and pitched having a team.

Vod soon

David Mayr

I would like to add, I listen to a movie podcast on the Ringer Network & they sometimes run cariuma ads. It’s marketed as a daily lifestyle shoe that’s meant for everyday-wear for anyone/everyone. They’ll sell shoes to whatever market

Benny Esquivel

Lmao they’re actually very comfortable and just a bit bulky

Coinstar

Joa, the vids are good but I sub for the vods. You going to start uploading those again or nah?

Phoenix Ryan

cariumas look like sketchers....so gross

jacob long

I continue to buy and wear them even though I think Cariuma's business strategy is wack. They fit and perform well. I like the look and the design. I just have to find a skateshop that has Last Resort VM003s in stock in size 11.5 since the 12 i bought was way too big for me. The shoe is basically the same as the Catiba but without the huge logo which i'm still not a big fan of. I just need to try them on locally to make sure they fit though since i'm picky with fit but there's none in my area unfortunately.

Jimi Wilson

i work at a shop and this jarittos release was the last straw, i sold all my nike shit. got a pair of 440s and a pair of nb walking shoes

Dillon

I started skating 3 years ago, and have owned not one---TWO--- pairs of the catiba pro. I liked the way they looked. I stopped wearing them not because I didn't like them, but because I figured out they are considered lame.

Gabriel Johnson

I think Lakai’s are next up after Nike’s hype cycle settled down

Jacob Drouin

I’m glad you said that you liked the look of cariumas when you first saw them because I was exactly the same, I nearly bought some just based off the fact that it said they were vegan, my knowledge of the inner workings of skateboarding is limited but when I found out more about them I was glad I hadn’t bought them. I feel like a lot of people just saw you and other YouTubers talk shit about the company and were automatically like “EEWWWW YEAH THATS THE MOST DISGUSTING SHOE IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE”

chaosisme

they're not paying him to wear their shoes so probably no

Dávid Lizom

seems like people think just because they’re skating the new dunks it makes their clips way better 😂 #skateyourdunks #skateyourdunks stfuuu

ryan sprutte

The Tyshawn shoe has the same profile as an Orca

Travis Monroe

Waiting for Hoka and Sketchers to make a skate shoe;)

Chrizzler

As a fellow scandi, i have to say that I'm really glad that Cariuma's has no presence here yet. Fuck Blue-Tomato and Junkyard.

Chrizzler

As someone whos hairline is rapidly receding i appreciate your wearing of hats indoors, it makes me feel normal, thank you Joa.

CarharttFinalBoss

Makes sense

Oscar Eliasson

I think Blue-Tomato, the German equivalent to Zumiez, carries them

L A

Forgot to mention all the latenite guys have ASICS now too, very random. If anyone knows where/how I can get a pair in Aus tho that would be greatly appreciated

templerun69

Yes

Badminton Temper

In Sweden, I've only seen Cariuma's in the wild once. And it was a German guy. Do we have any Germans here who can confirm it they sell there, or if it was just a total coincidence?

Oscar Eliasson

Isn’t Cookie on New Balance?

Mawkish Mule

On slatt we went to the park 💕

Bluntslideofdoom

Joa won’t skating asics make the last resort folks mad?

Alex

Jake Hayes is to deathwish what Andrew Brophy is to girl.

JP

I hope redirecting money from reynold's salary and pro shoe to do gummy haribo shoes works out for them. Solid move.

JP

Spiraling era 😈

Kevin O'Brien

Im from Australia and I’ve seen a lot of surfers wearing Cariuma but never anyone skateboarding. Also a full length Harry Styles hit piece for YouTube would be sick

Show us ya Stussy

Dammit! Stop making me laugh while I’m worrying about your mental health! Drink some water, hug Monster and book another therapist appointment!

Caro

Report from mexico city: i've never seen anyone wearing cariumas. ppl almost only skate vans here

Rowan D

lakai so irrelevant even joa forgot about them 💀

Bell

On morgan smith’s bunt interview he said that shane almost signed with DC, had an ad ready to send, but then nike promised him a shoe to keep him from leaving.

Jacob M Hibbeln

this is great content

“Smoothie time” 😳😳😳🤣🤣🤣

Gus

One thing I do really like that adidas is doing is taking their more unique silhouettes and turning them into skate shoes. The pro model/ADV versions of the superstars and forums look really cool. Even though they still have the 3 stripe I think they work the design of it into the overall shoe really well. Kaders purple superstar is definitely something unique and interesting even if it is something most people aren’t able to pull off; it’s cool to see them take a risk by trusting kader. The Stan smith also looks and feels good to skate in even though it’s not a skate shoe and Vincent makes it look good imo. Nora also had a nice slip on colorway a few years ago where they incorporated some of her art into the inside of the shoe. They definitely should’ve gone more of that route with her pro model.

Insomniakctually

Zion Jupiter tag looks like bacon 🥓

Michael Crossman
