    A few months ago, i looked at TKs myspace and was like daamnnn, this dude forgot where he came from, being a pro skater and stuff, he wasnt even that great, his part in baker 3 wasnt that good. But now i see that he is more down to earth than ever, and i like him now. Go Terry.
    P.S. One less strap and it would be allll gooood.

  • That One Kid

    Was TK rocking a Z-Shock faceplate for his G-Shock? Since his move to supra TK has been less of a Douche, or at least seemed less of a D-Bag. Not saying he ever was, but he used to carry himself like he was back in his ice cream days. Either way, TK is doing great things for supra.

    Yo i loved the yeezys but they are so exclusive that i just cant be bothered about them anymore. I mean I study civil engineering for crying out loud so i dont have the time to camp outside a shop for a week for a store with like only 20 yeezys. Whilst the spras i can get on lets say karmaloop and still everyone wont have the same kicks as me

    Let be honest with ourselfs, The Yeezys are an sick shoe that everyone either cant get there hands on or cant afford (maybe both), TK is a cool cat, but everyone get off his nuts. There is a reason he left ice cream ( and i wish somebody would say i was over money), you cant be a captain of a skate team if your not the best skater on your team! shout out to lil jacob

    TK is doing his thing, love him, shoes, not so much. space boots, too high especially for the summer. like i have said and someone else has-one less strap please. I also think is missing something. No way its better than yeezys, not even close. Sorry but nike paved to way for companies like Supra. Ppl love to hate on yeezy and nike, thats how it is when your on top.

    The Societys are sleek and modern (one less strap & it would’ve been perfect). The Yeezys look like Roger Rabbit’s shoes. Cartoonish, clown shoes!

  • why?

    I agree with Eps. Both sneakers have good aesthetics but the overall winner is the Yeezy. TK Society’s and most of SUPRA remind me of high end sneakers that the average person can afford which is cool but now its like everybody can wear SUPRA (which after 2-3 months get destroyed with after skating with them which was their original purpose) and some kids with a vague knowledge on what Hypebeast posts daily seem to believe they are connoisseurs when it comes to the Streetwear and Sneaker cultures. The Society is a good approach to what a sneaker should look like today but the Yeezy’s succeed even further.

    More people will get the Society’s but more will want the Yeezy’s.

    i think the yeezy was just an experiment to see how many people could buy a shoe that was a knockoff of 5 other shoes. and to see how much they are willin to pay for it.

    LOL! “That dog can sell 15 pairs of shoes!”, good laugh. Nike is just at a point where they aren’t looking to make money off limiteds like the Yeezys, the sheer publicity from them just maintains/elevates their brand image.

    Supra is more core, that’s for sure, but they’re still working that bottom line with their product. They’re not at a point where they can spend tons of time making a shoe and only sell 500 of them. Terry Kennedy has great personality though, def going far.
