    I used to work for the Canadian Circa distribution outlet a long time ago.
    The sponsored skaters would just come in and choose what shoe they wanted from the stock room. (I assume if you lived in a different part of Canada they would just ship them to you)
    After the Circa distribution warehouse closed down, the sponsored skaters would just have their shoes delivered, or they could go to the showroom to have a look.
    I think every shoe company has its own methods tho.

    Etnies have always been the coolest skateshoe company for me. It's a shame it's not as readily available where I live, but I always sneak in a pair when I order skate products overseas due to the and high import product markups despite the limited number of options.

    Very interesting. I love that blue on the shoes your wearing specifically the janowskis+ getting the rosewood team red this week I don't like paying full price for anything. I'm technically disabled so can't really improve my situation. So I try and watch the price. 67 uk I'm paying slightly better than the 80 for the blue so clean though that blue.
    Etnies reminds me of being young skating car parks.
    Many would argue i wasn't a skater, as I used those snakeboards. Much more fun imo. I picked that up straight away normal skating wasn't sinking in. I'm so happy they are making boards again. I can relive my youth.
