[@cali619brown4]

Please do all skate shoes from 90s and 2000s lol

[@ThousandSunAnger]

What I remember back then was that the original D3s got popular in Southern California (specifically San Diego) after Osiris started liquidating their stock for sale. When they were at regular retail prices, nobody had them. Then they suddenly became ubiquitous in low-income communities, because they gave them away for near-free at skate and surf shops. And then everybody had/wanted them. The customary thing to do was once they were worn and battered, was to cut the tongue off your old pair, so that you could slide them behind the tongue of your next D3s to make them look even puffier.

Love this. I did own a pair of these in White/navy. They were quite comfortable, a lot more like a running shoe with a skate style. If you want to continue with skate shoes, Etnies Lo-Cut II or Callicut would be cool. As they were incredibly popular early to mid 2000s and still made to this day.

[@panthro5703]

Dope shoes, I had like 5 pairs over the course of the years. Super comfy, like couches on your feet. Never had any issue skating in them, but I also never liked the more simple "vans" style, which gave great board feel, but also sent Shockwave through my feet anytime hitting a drop or stairset over 4 or 5 steps.

[@danielthehuman4662]

Interesting perspective. I never got too good at skating. I felt like it was just do to me being so big and scared. But i grew up around it. Whats your favorite trick!

[@hazepheno925]

Classic Vans suck for street skating. And their wet traction is down right dangerous. Nobody in the 90s skated in Vans. I can't recall seeing one person in the DC area, especially any pros (e.g. Freedom Plaza) skating in Vans. Vans were not very popular in the 80s/90s and didn't seem to start getting popular again until 2000s. With Vans Skateparks popping up, and all the contests they put on, they certainly gained back a little market share, especially after they were purchased by another large company in 2004. My favorite most comfy skate shoes ever were made by NICE (~1996?) that were like a Taupe colored suede. They kind of looked basic, almost cheap on the outside, but they held up for 2-3x longer than any other shoe I ever had skating. From Vision Street Wear suedes (nearly identical construction to Vans Full Cabs), bulky Airwalk hightops, to Etnies, eS, Emerica, DC, and others. I didn't really like when they started all looking like super bulky Basketball shoes. I know Dyrdek had some influence on that as he had dozens of shoe designs he created with DC.

[@natorious314]

@@hazepheno925 DC were the "poser" shoe in my town growing up. With their atrocious build quality no one who actually skated wore them. People either had the cheapest models they put out cause they were broke (no shade, I was broke too) or their $130 "fashion" oriented shoes that were trying to compete with the Circa, Osiris and Supra flashy hightops. No idea if DC finally upped their build quality but I'll certainly never skate them. Not even my love of Dyrdek growing up could keep me buying them after I shredded two pairs in two weeks.

[@zer02garage83]

I miss my D3's, they were the white and acid green. And you are right about the convincing of parents, not an easy task especially when they were so expensive (for the time), my 12yr old self had to spend an entire summer washing cars and mowing the good old neighborhood lawns to save up the $$$ to own a pair. Still my favorite skate shoes to this day!

[@CrusadesOClock]

I had these in just Grey back in the day, moved onto wearing Osiris Bronx which were also super puffy. Both super sweaty tbh but I think Bronx have D3's beat for the amount of foam in them... at least the early Bronx(of which there are many), the last few models became super slim with no foam at all.

[@NameWithheld999]

I remember I went to a skate tour in ‘96 or so and all the pro skaters were selling their extra shoes. I wanted a pair of Sal 23’s or Eric Koston’s and they were close to 100 at the skate shop and these dudes were selling them for $20-30. But all the pro skaters were little dudes and nobody had my size.

[@psychosis7325]

Could never afford shoes like these as a kid but one day I was blading at local park and a kid asked for a trade for while on his deck and I can still remember that experience like it was yesterday 🥰 felt like I just slipped my feet into some clouds with all that foam and I didn't want to take them off at the end of the session. Was legit the only time putting on someone else's shoe and it didn't feel foriegn AF but now looking at that mid I can see why 👌

[@FernandezCycles]

I had the grey and yellow 2001’s in 2001 and they were insanely comfortable. I used to hit my ankle a lot skating if I missed a flip trick and these remedied that. For me that was worth the money (that my parents paid) just to not limp around campus. Also, I made the choice to wear these for the year vs getting 5 pairs of Vans. Still worth it in my mind and it’s cool to see how the center cut looks. Thanks for this! Checking online they’re around $100 these days. Might have to buy a pair and download some Limp Bizkit to relive what I consider to be the golden era of street skating.

I collect the D3 2001 and now the Original (since their return in 2022) and this was such a neat video. I've always wondered what was inside but never had the heart to cut them in half, haha. Anyway, awesome video, maybe you can do another skate icon by Globe called the CT-IV? They were huge during the same time as the D3 in the early 2000's and in my school the cool kids either had the D3 or the CT-IV. Forgot to mention, the CT-IV has a built in tongue that is fused with the rest of the shoe! It's so unique and I'd love to see what it looks like.

[@natorious314]

The CT-IV was THE shoe that everyone who didn't skate but wanted to look like they skate wore when I was growing up. Admittedly comfy but god damn were they ugly 😂

[@starkiller5020]

What made these so popular was the fact they were made of tough rubber compared to your standard vans and Etnies that would wear out after weeks of skating. These shoes where the holy grail on the inside skating circle when they dropped. Nobody had to replace they’re old vans after they came out with these. Forever a change in the skate scene for the shoes we wore. I got a pair of these from my older cousin as some hand me downs. Wish I still had them.

These things have a special place in my heart and Ben though I think they are ridiculous, a kid at the park I used to skate who was always sort of picked on even though deep down everyone loved the guy, talked his unemployed single mom that used to pick up cans into buying him a pair and he was a small kid so everyone made endless jokes about his shoes that he was so proud of

Was never a skater back, I typically wore combat boot, 20 holes, etc. Back in that day, borrowed my friends D3's one day to go to 7/11, fell in love with them "I need one pair of these!". Only took about 20 years... Better late than never!

In 2001 the Osiris shoes were great for stairs and drops for me. They absorbed a lot of impact compared to the vans, emerica and globe shoes I wore for more tech tricks. The Josh Kaspers were one of my favorites. I remember a lot of “Posers” wore them, that never even stepped foot on a skateboard. I still find it weird at an older age when I talk to someone that wears skate or surf brands but don’t do either. The pro skater Dave Mayhew, who designed that shoe killed it in the Osiris video with those shoes. His interview in the Nine Club is worth watching or listening.

[@TrevFlips]

Okay I’ve been thinking about this for a week, Please do the etnies marana. The backstory is, they have a three times more durable formula that they just released however, in doing that, they got rid of their old formula and I am under the belief that nothing actually changed. They always offered the 3X durable in a Ryan Sheckler pro model, so a year ago, I bought that as well as their classic marinas and they seem to hold up equivalently After I made that realization they stopped selling their classics and said all of their shoes are now three times more durable Please get to the bottom of this🤩 Thanks🤙

[@metalkingforever420]

I remember wanting these so bad until I went to buy them tried them on and they were so uncomfortable for my wider feed. So I bought the ct-4 globe shoes with the attached tongue and by far were the most comfortable shoes I ever wore, I still buy globes to this day over 20 years later and they still make a couple models almost the same with the attached tongue.

[@slimjim1104]

Skate shoes stopped being made from real leather and such in the mid to late 90s. I get why but man I miss those days when a shoe was really beefy. Loved the first koston es and muskas. Great shoes.

Ive been rocking NYC 83's for 20 years now, i fell off the D3 train about 10 years ago but now that they are making a come back and Osiris seems to be releasing them in a steady stream I was sure to grab a few pairs. You can all thank me for keeping Osiris in business because for the last 20 years because every time my friends would comment on my NYC 83's they'd say "You have got to be the only guy keeping Osiris in business man, you gotta give it up already"

[@NitroCigarette]

The 2001 model (this one) looks so incredibly different from the OG ('99) that has tons of mesh on it and a ring for the laces in the centre of the tongue. Had both versions at one point, still think the OG is a nicer shoe, and puffier overall (which let's be honest was the reason we all wanted them lol). 2001 revision is real nice feeling on the feet though and is much more comfortable than the original release imo.

They were super stiff and gave me blisters but I wore them to death both to skateboard and just as a leisure shoe anyway.

I had these in blue on white. Wish I knew what happened to them. Edit: at the end of the video you asked what people who had them thought, and how they held up. I didn't skate in mine because I had a job and bought them with my own money and I didn't want to destroy shoes that I paid that much for. I didn't wear mine a whole lot because after I had them for about a week I started to dislike how bulky they were and I much preferred my etnies. But I did wear them here and there for probably about 3 years. I kept them clean and only wore them to school or to go out on the weekends if I wasn't working. And I have to say, they felt extremely durable for the time. They never really broke in. And they were so absurdly puffy and bulky that they were practically impossible to crease. The air pockets held up, none of them busted, but I'm sure they would have if I skated in them.
