Greg Lutzka Moves to K-Swiss Says:
June 25th, 2009 at 12:59 pm[...] anything prepare us for him moving to K-Swiss though? First, Koston to Nike and now, Lutzka to K-Swiss. You would have thought he made the bounce to another, already skateboard shoe based company. But [...]

June 23rd, 2009 at 6:03 pm
what a fcking joke
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:11 pm
wack
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:23 pm
lutzka was border line for me and now he's in doucie bin with Sheckler
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:43 pm
Look I am all for making fun of him but who knows they could be the hottest skate shoes in 10 years, give it a chance to start.
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:55 pm
worse than koston goin to nike
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:56 pm
Like Nike wasn't enough for skateboarding, then Reebok, and now K-Swiss wants piece of the pie!!!! Lutzka does the same tricks over and over in contests and K-Swiss is going to do the same boring shoes over and over … perfect match!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:57 pm
are you fucking serious?
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:58 pm
are you serious?
June 23rd, 2009 at 7:07 pm
I guess he didn't believe in "united by fate". Wow, I can see a huge market implosion!
June 23rd, 2009 at 7:33 pm
skateboarding is dead
and the worst part is they are gonna make sick shoes just like nike and adidias
boycott non skateboarding brands????
June 23rd, 2009 at 7:35 pm
i guess its a good move for him, lots of money nd he gets to make his own shoe from scratch, im pretty sure his show will skate good nd look something like a cons shoe would look like. cant hate on a business move
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:09 pm
whats next? Chris Cole on sketchers??
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:27 pm
the red ones look pretty boss but im still not liking this whole idea
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:35 pm
Man if you ever compare Chris Cole to this crap again, i'll hunt you down….
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:09 pm
this is a good thing i guess. he gets to do his own shoe thing instead of starting up some new lame shoe brand hes head of another companies skate department…sounds awesome if you ask me
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:26 pm
you guys are all fuckin haters. if he want sto move to kswiss then whatever, i mean his reasons are pretty legit. and even koston moving to nike sb. instead of all that energy you put towards hating on these guys why dont you go and put it towards skating. fuck go out and skate
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:27 pm
stop hating and go skate
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:21 pm
Haha brutal, really brutal, thats more brutal than anything else. I thought that gravis is a joke but thats not real right, just virtual. I knew it.
June 23rd, 2009 at 11:00 pm
the worst part is those dudes totally think theyre doing something to help skateboarding
June 23rd, 2009 at 11:15 pm
phuque him. i hope he dies
June 24th, 2009 at 12:01 am
This is going to hapen to every shoe brand out there. In a few years every body in the world will make skate shoes just to get a piece of the cake.
And most likely al the real skater runt skate companies will die because the cant compete with the MEGA 9000000000000000000000000000$ companies.
And all the pro skaters and am skater in the future will have to go to those companies because otherwise professional skateboarding will die because the cant get paid.
Where looking at a very Comercial future and skate boarding will be as well know as soccer football and james bond. I must say that I feel a great disturbens in the force a lot of skaters ar themted by the easy way of the dark side( nikesb kswiss reebok …… money money money).
And thats al I have to say.
June 24th, 2009 at 1:24 am
OMG ! My head hurts just watching this. Was the dude wearing eye liner? Did those other donkeys even understand skateboarding? This shit won't make a dent in the "core" market. Get paid but don't embarrass yo'self !!!!!!!
June 24th, 2009 at 2:03 am
he reminds me of a less funny more gay version of rob dyrdek who hasnt contributed to skateboarding like dyrdek has….by contributing im referring to the skateparks dyrdek has built
June 24th, 2009 at 2:16 am
Seriously? How much money did K-Swiss leave on your night stand Greg?
June 24th, 2009 at 3:37 am
It's funny how all yall that's hatin on em wasn't didn't have nuttin bad to say when he was on Globe. Now that he want to pan out from them and do his own thing with K-Swiss yall want to hate. Yall forget yall was the ones hatin on P-Rod when he went to Nike and then everyone started rockin em, Stevie Williams went to RBK and i seen everyone with either them or some Reebok Classics on thinkin now they hood mainly rich white boys wit no style, TK brought out Ice Cream i can't count how many people thought them damn shoes was tight, but all in all i guarantee one of yall that's hatin have a pair of RBK, Nike's, or Ice Creams that you wear or skated in. Yall don't got no reason to hate for nothin because if the opportunity came to yall no matter whether K-Swiss, RBK, or Nike at least one of yall would take it if not all of yall especially if it came to money. Big ups to Lutzka for what he do and his skatin always go hard and still will no matter what shoe he wear. Don't Be Hatin cause you mad it ain't you gettin a deal like him.
June 24th, 2009 at 3:51 am
makes me horny
June 24th, 2009 at 6:07 am
Wack!…. Money talks tho!…….
June 24th, 2009 at 6:08 am
lutzka is emotionally damaged and has bad style. chris cole has bad style as well but is skateboardings male answer to joan jett. I MEAN THAT IN AS BAD A WAY AS POSSIBLE.
June 24th, 2009 at 7:23 am
another step towards corporate takeover of skateboarding
June 24th, 2009 at 8:35 am
even if its a brand that probably no one skates now…later its ganna sell to those ppl or kids that like lutzka. Yea lets bitch about how we dont like it yet its someones decision and rather then supporting him, yea lets just call him a fag and say hes not good…if your really ganna say that might as well as put down your board, cuz what the fuck are you contributing?
June 24th, 2009 at 8:36 am
you are all dumb
June 24th, 2009 at 9:06 am
lutzkas the worst. that dudes like all the rest of the dew tour fucks. nobody cares
June 24th, 2009 at 2:31 pm

June 24th, 2009 at 4:46 pm

June 24th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
hmm..ok now please skate the olympic games in these shoes..
June 24th, 2009 at 7:51 pm
is this a fucking joke?
June 24th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
The beauty of skateboarding is the diversity it offers. It's the ultimate freedom of expression and it's sad to see such a negative response to something that's obviously a positive step forward in the growth of our sport/lifestyle. There was a time when there was no such thing as a "skate shoe." Skaters in the 70's wore whatever shoes they wanted and nobody gave a sh!t. Everyone has a preference when it comes to the shoes they skate, but to wish death upon someone else for having a different preference is pure insanity. When you're out skating you should be having too much fun to worry about the kicks other people are wearing (they're just gonna to get torn to shreds anyway). Just be happy that a fellow skater has started a new project.
June 24th, 2009 at 8:22 pm
vans since 66 not kswiss get out of our industries
June 24th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
lutzka is ill as fuck. kswiss is gay as fuck. Interesting match
June 24th, 2009 at 8:41 pm
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Lutzka is ill and kswiss is not. Ironic
June 24th, 2009 at 9:58 pm
UNITED BY FAITH… WITH THE MONEY!!!
June 25th, 2009 at 11:18 am
you are the biggest loser in skateboarding , you have just ranked yourself higher than ryan sheckler. K SWISSS what were you thinking i know people have to look out for their future but that move was obviously money money money …. fukin sell out bringing a dirty corporate shit brand like k swiss into the international skate scene.
June 25th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
i smell another sheckler coming
June 25th, 2009 at 5:56 pm
i agree with you up until you said it will look like a cons shoe, two completely differnt styles
June 26th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
Hoops = gayest dork and only bring the worst out of people .
Lutzka = no longer any were close to keeping it real, sold out as a jock joke and o god dis is were you fit in because you make no sense act like a G doing the same old tricks and chicks.
how many kids do you have 3? . real nice work dum ass..
i herd this got him kicked out of thrasher i herd .as should be all mags..
good by dork.
fake dudes rock k swiss
June 26th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
Koston went to Nike SB because he wanted to, he even said thats the shoe company he admired and based some of his models on. Lutzka made a bold move, dont hate him for it, especially since you probably have never worn a pair of K Swiss, before you hate him at least wait for some designs to come out, who knows you might like them.
June 29th, 2009 at 2:12 am
greg eres un puto
June 30th, 2009 at 12:31 am
its just sponsorships, why does everyone care? okay i understand this whole support core skate companies i believe in it too, but its also choice, ive supported vans, lakai, many other shoes too, but ive also supported big names, im skating sb's now tell you the truth perhaps the best damn shoes ive ever had, and all this garbage about fake ppl rock sb's or k swiss, how untrue is that? look its fake to wanna follow others ideas but if you wanna skate a big name brand as in k swiss so be it im not gonna judge you anybody true to themselves would understand judgement is what destroys anyone and everyone
July 3rd, 2009 at 2:24 pm
Since Transworld didn't post my last comment here is my new one. Lutzka is doing what he wants to do and noone should be hatin on him. People was haitin on PROD, TK, Stevie, and now Koston when they went they ways and soon as the shoes came out everyone was wearin them. I think that this is a good move i can almost guarantee that you'll see people skating K-Swiss because people will see a pair they like and wear them and skate them. Anyone haitin is just mad they not good enough to make the same deal, because they would do the same if it got offered.
July 7th, 2009 at 3:43 am
true that man. its lutzka man, lets see what hes got b4 we diss him
July 11th, 2009 at 11:22 am
why is everybody hating on k-swiss the shoes are gunna be sick plus every company including skater owned like lakia and fallen are just trying to make money who really gives a fuck its all about the skateboarding and the quality of the shoes which I think its obviously gunna have
July 15th, 2009 at 4:13 am
srly people stop hating and for you guys who says skateboarding is dead it is sure as hell not. Just beacuse a company endores a skater who wants to transform thier company doesnt make skateboarding"dead" like grow the f**k up. I give props to Lutzka for his decsion because he wants to be different and i think that in time people will love K-Swiis just like Nike SBs or Adidas Classics
July 23rd, 2009 at 12:43 am
haha your all the biggest fuckin losers….me and greg are sittin here in laguna…in the hills…in the 2.5 million dollar house that k swiss bought him laughin at you chumps haha….get beat mothercukers you cant touch us!
July 29th, 2009 at 6:59 am
sure anyone with the $ can make a great shoe, sign some pro skaters….
but i respect vans for being the ones who actually did the hard work from day one, put their balls on the line to support skateboarders, not just to take advantage.
fck kswiss, nike, adidas.
BUY SOME GODDAMN VANS
July 30th, 2009 at 3:34 am
weird because when u open the latest issue of thrasher i believe u see lutzka on the 1st page jerk off!
August 6th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
I dig the SWISS's they look pretty sick…Lets see if the durabilty and Lightness take effect in these.
August 7th, 2009 at 5:42 am
yeah actually
August 7th, 2009 at 5:43 am
tom likes nuts on his head
August 7th, 2009 at 5:43 am
si
August 7th, 2009 at 5:43 am
no it isnt you fucking idiot, just lutzka
August 7th, 2009 at 5:44 am
no it fuuuucking isnt, just lutzka
August 7th, 2009 at 5:44 am
no!
August 16th, 2009 at 9:53 pm
nike is one of the best shoes out there in the 70s people were skating nikes before they even had a team nike is as much of the history as skateboarding vans has just been there longer and vans is a awesome shoe but nikes are the shit there team is bangin! so what if there big skateboarding is becoming more mainstream everyday and you just need to accept that
August 17th, 2009 at 7:29 pm
THIS IS STUPID!
August 18th, 2009 at 7:13 am
Get off his dick….this is a business…k-swiss prolly gave him a fat fucking contract and they offered it to the same fucking internet haer they would take it in a second.
You cant get mad at anyone for getting paid.
Hes ill as fuck at skating too…
These might be dope you never know.
too much hate in skateboarding these days
August 18th, 2009 at 5:00 pm
ive hated kswiss since i was a little skate rat at the age of 11, but those hightops that Lutzka was holding up in blue black and gray were kinda sick. except those five stripes are always dumb… but good luck to the company and to Lutzka. Rep: MILWAUKEE
August 19th, 2009 at 2:13 am
Dude say what you want about Lutzka but he's one of the sickest guys in the game. So what if he's riding for K-Swiss? He's still a fuckin awesome skater. He's got the 270 to anything down a rail. Props to Lutzka for doing his own thing. You wanna complain about skate shoes complain about how DC, Etnies, Globe and Vans market cheap shitty ass shoes if you really want to complain about shoes. For all you know they'll be the best skate shoe since the Cab. Fuck im a heavy metal/punk rock mother fucker and I"LL slip on a pair of K-Swiss!
August 25th, 2009 at 9:24 am
i thought k swiss was gunna be pretty gay. when i first heard about it i was against it 79874986277 percent but now that ive seen this i think theyre really tryin to make the best shoe out there they arent just tryin to mooch of the skate scene theyre tryin to mix it up and get somethin different out there and i think theyre gunna do exactly that. so quit hatin on them (like i was) and give them a chance cause they might be backing upp skateboarding in the future just as much as vans or anyone else.
September 2nd, 2009 at 11:41 pm
Dude Lutz is an ill skater with alot of passion. And it dont matter what shoes are on his feet he's still gonna be dropping the sickest 270 to anything down rails.
September 2nd, 2009 at 11:42 pm
And is he waering his GLOBE's in this vid?
September 16th, 2009 at 8:47 am
thats right fck those corporate bastards
support lakai, es, vans, emerica, etc…
September 17th, 2009 at 3:58 am
dude you sukk cok and push mongo u fagstick
October 2nd, 2009 at 2:19 am
greg i hope your soes sell. your styles amazing your one of the best dude.
October 12th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
nah,chris cole on dc
October 18th, 2009 at 6:12 pm
i'm still waiting for the puma skate team
October 19th, 2009 at 1:40 am
im not 4 tha corporate b/s, but adidas r raw as fuck.. dnt hate if you havent skated em
and emerica and es r legit
but fuck sum vans I'm sure "tom" is a mongo pushin fag
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:08 am
evweryone was saying the same thing about Nike and addidas 4 years ago, and now everyone has blazer lows are campus vulcs. ive seen the K-siss and they dont look half-bad, plus I'd like to see how the 3-piece toe cap would last
December 15th, 2009 at 1:46 am
vans suck , nike sb is the shit
December 25th, 2009 at 12:40 pm
loooool
December 25th, 2009 at 8:37 pm
thats whackkkk
January 18th, 2010 at 4:03 am
this is a fucking disgrace to fucking skateboarding i dont really care bout adidas and nike sb cause they both got good teams and pluss the powell guys used to rock nikes and adidas back in the day along with guy mariano and other legends like koston but k swiss needs to get the fuck out of skateboarding because they are fucking wack
January 18th, 2010 at 8:27 pm
Vans is part of the same corporation that makes The North Face, jansport, Nautica, Wrangler, and more. They are very much corporate now. You might as well buy nikes. Stick with Lakai and Emerica.
