> Generally, those rocking Nike, Adidas, even Supreme are not accepted by those who support skate specific shops and brands. The situation is much less clear cut these days. There are the die-hards that will never ever buy those newcoming brands, sure, but Nike and Adidas skateboarding offshoots do embrace the culture and sponsor great talent with a genuine skateboarding spirit like Sean Malto (Nike), Shane O'Neill (Nike), Daewon Song (Adidas) or Chris Chann (Adidas); plus the shoes are objectively good stuff for skating. They certainly have less of an extreme attitude than Ali Boulala and Dustin Dollin, but that never was what skateboarding was about.
