Some of your previous sneaker designs were based off certain Jordan elements or professional team colorways. Is that something we can expect from upcoming Oakley projects?
Actually yea, we’ve definitely talked about it. I was thinking about just making some for myself, at least. We’ll take it from there and see how far that goes. I definitely want to make some sweet combinations though. The main problem is that its hard to sell something like that unless you’re a Lakers fan. It’s a love/hate thing with them because no one really likes the Lakers outside of LA… you either love them or completely hate them, at least that’s what I’ve gotten from my travels. It’s definitely a personal thing and doesn’t always translate to an abroad market.
I can see that. I guess it would almost compare to making some Yankee Frogskins…
Yep, exactly.
