OCTOBER TEASER!!

A new additon to our ever expanding footwear floors is LA based skate brand Supra! Not only do we have the best of the Supra skate range dropping but we also have the super premium, super lush leather Non-skate range dropping too! For those who have been living under a rock for the last couple of years, Supra is the coolest skate brand to come out of the states since hmmm probably 1966. The brainchild of Krew founders Angel Cabada and Erik Ellington, their philosophy is simple - Never cut corners. Their plan was to take skate footwear to a new level, and that they most certainly did. Using only the top quality fabrics, leathers and innovated design possible as well as having an all star team of Erik Ellington, Jim Greco, Tom Penny, Chad Muska, and Antwuan Dixon behind them. DROPPING MID OCTOBER. Start saving now. PICS HERE (more…)

Married to the Mob x Colette x Reebok

THANK YOU GREG at Reebok for answering our prayers and also answering the 30 million  calls and emails we sent you requesting this shoe!! We finally  just received a small delivery of the most hyped women’s sneaker EVER! A colab between three giants in the streetwear game, Married to the Mob, Colette in Paris and Reebok Freestyle Highs. After a sell out release at Colette and Alife they decided to produce a few more for the unlucky ones and with only 4 stockists in Australasia, they will not last long, so ladies… DON’T SLEEP!!!!!!

Dunk Hi Supreme - Olympic

Also dropping tomorrow at Loaded is the Dunk Hi Supreme - Olympic. After searching the world wide web for hours the only info we can find is that they are APPARENTLY a tier 0 release? Hmmm. I’m guessing this is an Asia/Pacific exclusive but could well be wrong. Come down tomorrow and check them out for yourself. Shiny!

Air Max 90 - Infrared

After 2 years, 7000 emails, 500 phone calls to courier post, 10 phone calls to Australia, 6 tantrums and a LOT of tears, they finally arrived!

Winner of the Loaded X Lower pack

So the winner of our special Loaded x Lower colab pack has been drawn. Blair, your answer - “Lower comes from Mt Maunganui…but to answer the question of what city it comes from - Mt Maunganui is technically not a city (due to size of the population - it’s a town) so the answer would have to be Tauranga City.” was fantastic. Come on in and grab your prize! As for the rest of you, keep reading, more comps coming soon!!!
