WTF Skate Fashion..?

What is this a bad rendition of the 80's?
I recieved the newest CCS catalog the other day in the mail and I am blown away at the majority of the use of color in the clothing… from pants, jeans, shirts, shoes… hats… dammit! I have no understanding of these new trends that are fading into skateboarding…? This bad 80’s rendition of clothing and colors…

Maybe I am just getting old and it seems silly to me, much like that pants at Hot Topic with all the chains and wide legs that cover your shoes… I just don’t get it. Sure, I wore a bit of the fluorescent colors when I was a kid in the 80’s, but this is all a bit much for my taste. The painted on jeans were bad enough and all the guys wearing girl jeans, please…

It is about as bad as 80’s glam metal clothing…
Fashion WTF?

Its funny these ads were released around the time when Nike gave its first go at making skateboard shoes. Although these adds were very good, they actually may have pushed skaters away further, by making it look like they were trying to hard to fit in w/ the skateboarding community. Now a couple of years later, Nike SB take 2, they are fully established as a shoe company for skateboarding. But there ads follow a more skateboard formulaic approach, trying not to stick out as much as the 11 billion dollar company they are. Nike had to wait out an entire generation of anti-corporate skateboarders and now they are accepted. I would rather have these kids save there money so they can buy alcohol or drugs instead of buying nikes. At least this way in there altered state they could actually realize the hipocracy which is nike in skateboarding. NIKE ISN’T SKATEBOARDING
