Scott Johnston #5.



Talk of the weather will do.

Scott gets in on the going up craze before it was even a craze.

I suppose a weather proof skate shoe is a good idea, especially back when footwear was bulkier and material choice wouldn't have made that much of a difference. It also caters to the emerging trend of the time to have a pair of chilling shoes. You're still supporting skateboarding, but your socks aren't getting wet.

Those are some big shoes. I guess this was Timberland era? "Let's make skateboard shoes that look like hiking boots"?
