well the fact that their site has a picture of the shoes... kind of suggests they'll drop on their site. I'd say its a for sure thing.

I was talking to one of the guys at the shop and asked him they're gonna drop on the FA site and he said probably not.. but who knows? Threw some black laces on my pair, I think it helps break up the green a bit.

"Fucking Awesome isn't seasonal. It's just there when it's there and I don't make much of it. I constantly shoot myself in the foot from a business standpoint actually because I make it for sale but at the same time I don't want you to have it. "

Dill in a nutshell. If he wasn't such a cool guy, he'd be the worst guy.

Yeah. He's probably the same troubled kid in elementary school who beat up kids, and stole shit from them. I'm sure there's quite a bit of people out there in the world who are like "Remember that kid Jason in elementary school who used to fuck with us all the time? He's probably in jail, or a bum on the streets." Action sports saves so many of these characters, so we can enjoy their presence, lol. This thought just came up to me, because I was watching a documentary on HBO last night, called The Crash Reel, about snowboarder Kevin Pearce, who quickly rose to the top and then had a life changing accident that left him with severe brain damage, who beat his friend Shaun White (who some of you may have heard of) in damn near every event, and he even lived in Shaun's house with him, and once he started becoming more famous from winning, Shaun called his mother, to have all of Kevin's shit put out on the front porch. What a douchebag. I can't look at Shaun White the same way anymore.

My friend saw Shaun White at Disneyland's 24 hour thing last year and said he was a straight up douche, disrespectful to all Disneyland employees, security, and guests.
I could live without these, I'd rather spend my money on the Vault x Wtaps.

Dill (I think) want to keep his 'cool thing' - cool.
If he doesn't put the shoes out, it's not a thing
there are no shoes. and - nothing is cool.
If he puts them out and they go to all the stores
everyone can have them
if everyone has them - they aren't cool
It's the supreme model - rarity equals desirability
i don't agree with it (I don't disagree with it either) - but he is a Supreme guy, it's not surprising he would go with the Supreme business model.

Love that green pair. Definitely would be my pick if I was able to get my hands on these. All of 'em are awesome, though.

In the documentary, they talk about how concussions and any form of head trauma causes irritability and rudeness. Basically, no filter, and a behavioral doctor was being interviewed, and he said most of the time, the top ranking winners in these action sports, are mostly the ones ending up being arrested that night, for disorderly conduct and what not. They have a harder time "turning off" that turn up, lol.
