But there's a certain level of surface level knowledge and passion that Reid displays when he discusses the D3, his life's work, shoe design as an art form, etc. The truth seems pretty obvious...

But they did have design input.

[@nintruendo6411]

It's devastatingly clear who the designer is and who the endorsed athlete is. One dude has all the design files, the other held up a spray painted shoe. Dave is a complete muppet for considering himself the designer of this shoe. Anybody with any level of design and/or marketing experience knows exactly what happened here.

[@thejigisup]

The problem here is the grey area on these collabs back in the day. These days people patent and sell the rights to others, back then that wasn’t common, so I doubt Dave had anything to do with the shoes besides put his name on them, yet they flopped. Think about ADIDAS YEEZES, Kanye designed the shoe but adidas makes them.

Looks nothing like any of the 3 released, so somebody else probably made it look better too that has been left out of the story altogether. Seems like both just have bad memories and big egos

[@TysonHook-22-]

@@truhhhhhhhokIII3 By Dave's own admission his concept was the wave lace loops... so Reid then designed the shoe around that concept soo the correct analogy is more along the lines of someone giving a ferrari graphic designer a new rim, mirror, spoiler, or steering wheel accent design idea then going around claiming to have designed the entire car. It may be true that Dave visualized some kind of wavey lace loop idea which he passed onto Reid or It's true that Brian Reid designed the Osiris Gorgon and Osiris Guru and the D3 was just the natural evolution of his own design idea's... since when looking at the Guru and D3 the design similarities are stricking, essentially the D3 is just the lower side half of the Guru extended upwards with giant lace loop holes added and a few other minor design tweaks here and there and you got yourself a D3 birthed out of the Guru design. After seeing the Gorgon and Guru shoes that Mayhew's names not credited too in anyway but Reid's is, it kinda goe's far in proving Reid's argument that Mayhew is misremembering how much input and involvement he truly had with "designing" the shoe. In my opinion the truth of the story is likely that Dave had skated and liked the Osiris Guru and he asked for his signature shoe to be similar and so Reid designed him the Osiris Guru 2.0. Dave might've even suggested his signature shoe be like the Guru shoe but with bigger lace loops. or gave small input on designs that Reid showed him. but in the end I think its simply most likely that he rode and liked the Guru shoe and so when it came time for his signature model to be made, Reid was tasked with designing Mayhew a signature shoe and Reid basically just expanded on the Osiris Guru design.

[@SeaSharp]

It’s more like MJ/Kobe/Lebron providing input on their signature sneakers. I understand Lebron gets to influence the design of his signature sneakers but I don’t think he’s out there calling himself the designer.

Dave: Sick brah, is this on the contract also? I mean, me as the shoe designer? Reid: Sure brother, you will be! We will endorse like that, so for it to dont look fake we got you on the contract too! 20 years later... Dave: Yeah. I designed the D3. Reid: huh? Dave: Yeah bro that's right, it is ON THE CONTRACT (and that is what matters actually). If this shoe was a FLOP this guy Reid would'nt want to have his name associated with it. But since it is trending again, he wants the spotlight on him, it is simple.

[@exzisd]

It's clear that Dave Mayhew didn't design the shoe BUT at the same time Osiris was using the pros (like companies do now) to sell the shoes and clothes and boards. So because the shoe took off it was like wait a minute now the designer comes out to claim their recognition but there is an ethical dilemma there. Had the shoe come out and not gained that iconic status it would be a remnant of (as odd as it feels to say today at 31) retro skateboarding culture. Personally I really loved Circa's shoes and think they had some of the dopest designs including some of the Chad Muska stuff. Circa, eS, Emerica, Vans, and all those major players had cool unique styles that changed the shoe game. I remember kids that didn't skate being called posers for wearing skate clothes and it bothered me as a kid because I am a skater and in my youth it was my identity and gave me something to feel a part of when I didn't have a group that I clicked with like the jocks, the nerds, the band, etc. In retrospect it's a bit silly but I miss the 90s and early 2000s for skateboarding. Some of my fondest memories of life were during those games. Also so hyped to see Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2 coming back in proper form this year!

[@VENGEFULHEXX]

No. The issue here is somebody claiming the shoe as their own singular creation when that was not the case. You can clearly listen to the designer say that since Mayhew is saying the shoe was his sole (hehe) creation, current and potential future business opportunities are at risk due to integrity and ethics. If Mayhew said he was part of a team in the shoe's design then there would no issue here. Mayhew is lying and therein lies the problem.

Skater discredits designer by saying all he does is add “a few bells and whistles” dudes a skateboarder give the dude credit where it’s deserved

[@andrewandrew4970]

"Im not a shoe designer" "Bells and whistles"

Still not as handy as the chad muska circas with the weed pocket in the left tongue

Dood I had those as well. Metal mesh that snapped due to excess use and interchangeable lases.

Marc Johnson was on the Nine Club and talked about the meeting where pros picked their shoes and Mayhew showed up to the meeting late so that’s why his name was stuck to it. The shoe was done before Mayhew got it, so they gave it the name after it was designed. It just adds a little bit more complexity to the corporate body and what actually happened with Mayhew’s involvement.

Nothing worse than getting ripped off creatively. Unfortunately, this happens in every design industry. From art, to fashion to graphic design to whatever else. Know heaps of people who’ve been ripped off. Myself included. It’s annoying and it’s unfair.
