Good luck selling that boot at a Skateboard shop….Great
Choice of Collaboration for a Snowboard Company?
“Angry”, take the hate and go try to figure out some wack shoe color way for the Chief….CHUMP!
VIVA HUF
viva huf,
thats funny. Hope he can make some money so he can get his nike account back. Those shops are just dumb, whats the point to them.
Another bad choice for 686, trying to get street cred form someone who is almost out of business
Angry – Yeah Right, look forward to seeing you at Agenda this week,Good Night N$CK!!!
you know its the real deal, it is what it is
It’s now time you be quiet and respect others. Talk is cheap and you know it. You have to stop the continuous hate, as your hate is hurting you.
HATE is a SIN and SLANDER is a CRIME.
HUF has a dream and you should respect the brother and his dream. Keith has put everything on the line to make HUF a success. Keith is THE REAL DEAL, just like your boss is THE REAL DEAL.
I hope to see you at AGENDA and know that you have given up the HATE & have Repented from all your mean talk & actions.
Nice to see you little buddy!
