The Emerica skate team has been killing themselves to wrap up the new "Stay Gold" video to be released very soon. To commemorate these efforts, Emerica created a "Stay Gold" collection which features trippy psychedelic colors on canvas uppers, and spray painted outsoles....all of which are Vegan friendly!

The shoes featured in the pack are the Reynolds Cruisers - an ultra slim, low profile boat shoe which Andrew created to skate and chill in. The clean, simplistic styling hides a techy, super protective STI Foam Full-Length System G2 footbed on a vulcanized outsole. The Francis Lo - An Emerica team favorite. It's a thinned-out 80's inspired skate shoe built to shred. And last but definitely not least, the Laced - A team rider-inspired price point shoe thats great for chillin' and meant to be worn without laces.


Check out the "Stay Gold" collection and the latest and greatest Emerica has to offer in the Zappos Rideshop!

DVS x LRG Chico Brenes "Now" Edition

Nov 18, 2009 by Jim C.

During the Fall, DVS introduced the Chico Brenes LRG collection with the first installment of the Munition CT Mid. You can read more about it here. That was then, this is "NOW"!

The "Now" version of the Munition CT Mid was designed with a modern, slightly more sophisticated Chico in mind. Chico is truly a man of international leisure and DVS designers embraced this idea in the shoe's aesthetics by using cigar-box themes in its coloring, logoing, and packaging. Designers also added custom snakeskin texturing on the collar and quarter panel, wrapped it in brown real nubuck, and added a viva suede liner on the interior for added cushioning and comfort.


Like unwinding with a finely cured tobacco, these kicks are made with relaxation and comfort in mind. Check them out here and all the latest and greatest from the Zappos Rideshop!

In continuing with Globe's ongoing Puzzle Series as part of the Limited Special Projects they produce, this time around Globe asked the skaters what they wanted for their next Limited model and they got back different answers from each of the guys. Each of the featured riders has a distinct style and personality and thus the new Puzzle Series all have completely different models.


David Gonzalez skates Globe's popular Hi-Top, the Superfly, so he picked out the best action leather, patent leather and shiny snake skin leather for his vulcanized Superfly Puzzle and added the fire red touch.

You’ve rocked dunks, the Skytop, the TK Society, and you’re looking for the next big thing; something with larger-than-life style, fresh streetside appeal, and kicks that are higher than high.

Meet the Rhyme from Osiris, a fresh fusion of classic skate style and progressive sneaker design. Armed with a staggering high top silhouette, the Rhyme also features a wraparound hook-and-loop strap that can be worn strapped or loose. Need that extra kick of swagger? Then the flap on the back of the shoe folds down, creating one big ‘n bold look. The Rhyme also features a special collaboration with Del Tha Funkee Homosapien from the now legendary Hieroglyphics hip hop crew. With colors that are Del to the floor, custom logo hits on both sides of the fold down flap, and custom artwork on the insole, these kicks are funky enough for even the funkiest.

Plus with the EVA drop in midsole, a heel insert that offers added impact resistance, and a padded tongue and collar, the Rhyme has all the support and comfort you’d expect in any Osiris shoe.

Kicks this fresh won’t be around forever, so check them out on the Zappos Rideshop now!

In a sport dominated by the two coasts, it’s easy to forget that there’s a vast space right in the middle of America, where kids like Sean Malto are tearin’ it up in the heartland. Malto rides with etnies, and what better way to bring it all full circle than with a fresh new colorways of the RVL and the RVM that has Malto and Midwest written all over it?

Home is where the heart is, and that’s especially true with these signature colorways. Malto isn’t afraid to rep his hometown in his video parts, and as a result, this colorway bleeds Kansas City blue all over. Gold accents help add that extra kick of pop into a classic skate silhouette and it also features signature Malto embroidery details at the heel. Plus, it’s all backed up by the fresh features of both the RVL and the RVM, like the STI G2™ heel system that’ll ensure smooth landings and the STI™ Foam system that offers cushioned comfort even after a hard day of drilling down some sick tricks.

So show KC some love and check out the Sean Malto RVM and RVL from the Zappos Rideshop!

Skate Item of the Week: Vans Classic Slip on Core Classics

0 comments
Nov 6, 2009 by James Hamel

Who in their junior high and high school days didn't at least own one pair of slip on Vans shoes? These comfortable, long lasting and easy to slip-on shoes are a part of our national heritage. Sitting in homeroom, doodling in pen on the rubber edge of your Vans is possibly the most 80's of memories.

Well, now you can relive those glory days even in some of the retro-80's checkerboard styles with the Vans Classic Slip On Core Classics. These shoes are guaranteed to bring back memories and make your life a whole lot easier. Because let's be honest, who has time for shoelaces? You didn't have time for them back then and you definitely don't have time for them now.

Styles
Vans Classic Slip On Core Classics are so affordable you could easily buy a different style to suit your every mood or one for each day of the week. There is the retro checkerboard in black/white, red/white, pink/black and red/black. For more of a preppy look go for the blue, white or black. There is even a version so white that you could probably hit the skate park in the dark and the cops could still see you.

Materials
These shoes come with classic Vans EVA insole support to help cushion heavy landings when grinding, shredding or just jumping off the roof. They have a cotton drill lining for extra comfort and breathability. The sole is Vulcanized to repel heat and to make it durable. And as always there is the gum rubberized outsole that is a Vans trademark—you could probably even still write in pen on it.

Vans x R. Crumb Pack

0 comments
Oct 23, 2009 by Jim C.

R. Crumb, despite working entirely outside the mainstream comic book industry, is considered to be the founder of the underground comix movement and its most prominent contributor. Crumb began his career as an illustrator for American Greetings in Cleveland, but by the late ’60s he had moved to San Francisco where he became involved in underground publishing. In 1968, Crumb founded the seminal Zap Comix, which is still an outlet for leading artists today. One of his most recognized works, “Keep on Truckin’,” became a widely distributed fixture in popular culture in the ’70s. In 1981, Crumb produced and edited a new comic magazine, Weirdo.

By the late ’80s, fed up with America’s urban sprawl, Crumb sold a number of his sketchbooks and moved to a new home with his family in the south of France. Crumb seldom ventures back to the U.S. and, in recent years, has been immersed in his latest project, illustrating the book of Genesis. Two of Crumb’s most recognizable characters are featured in this Vans x R. Crumb project with Mr. Natural appearing on the SK8-Hi Deconstruct and Fritz the Cat dropping in on the special Vans Classic Slip-On.

Does Rob Dyrdek and His Dyrdek's Collection Secretly Rule the World?

0 comments
Oct 16, 2009 by James Hamel

Well, with sales of his all encompassing skate apparel line booming, Mr. Rob Dyrdek might be getting seriously close to being able to buy the whole world, Dr. Evil style. We all know he at least has his "Fantasy Factory" on MTV where each week the man shows off his toys and how he likes to abuse his staff. (Only in Jest, to be sure! The fights on that show are more staged than the plot of "The Hills.")

In just a few short years, the interlocking D and C for "Dyrdek Collection" has become one of the most sought after logos in the entire clothing industry, to say nothing of skate apparel. To put it in perspective, the Dyrdek Collection's DC has almost become as recognizable as the two GGs were for Gucci in the 1980's. And just as Gucci did in the 1980's, the Dyrdek Collection is also trying to branch out from a previously successful logo into an entire brand filled with fashionable goodies. Because life unfortunately sometimes requires more than just a hooded sweatshirt.

Oh, but DC does make a great hoodie now doesn't it? First is the"Electric Blue Dimensional Fleece Zip Hoodie" (perfect for winter) featuring a totally unique design over the front but the usual Rob Dyrdek quality. No interlocking DC logos here but it somehow still looks like a piece from this skate company.

Now the Dark Gray "Regain Fleece Zip Hoodie" still features the well known logos but this time styled much differently almost as if someone had put a hand-full in a blender and hit puree. Again, this is one warm and stylish hoodie.

This season Vans introduces another B4BC collaboration, the Women's Veil. Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) is a non-profit, youth-focused education, awareness and fundraising foundation. Their mission is to increase awareness about breast cancer, the importance of early detection and the value of an active lifestyle. We all know and love someone who has been affected by this terrible disease. We believe, for the well being of the snowboard community, that our role is to teach positive health practices which assist in detection and prevention of breast cancer. For the 2010 season, Vans has partnered with B4BC on a special edition Veil, to help raise awareness in the fight against breast cancer.

The Veil features Vans custom-designed BOA Focus System. Zonal closure provided from the Focus System gives the rider the versatility to adjust to any condition imaginable. Coupled with the Custom Quadfit Thermal Liner with interchangeable fit bars, the Veil gives you a true custom fit you never thought possible.
