The debut Prime Labels collection consists of the Thorns Sub-40, Getlo-Lo Crescent-Onyx and Getlo-Mid Sapphire. The latest Premium Label lineup (limited to 480 pairs each and individually numbered) includes the White-Tie SDM-Hi, Clashes Peddler and Foolsmate Rover Peddler. Each line will have its own separate packaging identity and placement. Available Spring 2008 at select JB Classics dealers.

The JB Getlo – FMF Model will be released at only a select few shops around the world, MOE’s Sneaker Boutique, DEEP STORE, Qubic, Overkill, Garage and online at Pick Your Shoes.

As part of skate label DC Shoes’ ongoing Double Label project, they have created an interesting product by enlisting the help of a fellow sneaker brand in JB Classics to design a special package of shoes and products. The finished product utilized the imagery from tree rings to symbolize the project. Custom laser etching can be seen as a tribute to the growth rings of trees. The soles also include a growth ring tread. The accompanying t-shirts and New Eras will be based off the same theme.
