I actually disagree, they look like Ivy Park Nite Joggers. We're talking about a Beyonce x Adidas collab and hype beasts still didn't lose their sh*t. I like the WS and SIA sneakers but there's nowhere near enough material in the William Strouch's for me to justify $160, independent or not.
Its dope to see SIA get some exposure. The owner has been grinding hard for years and have been copied by Johnny Gieger a couple of times. But he on the map now. Black owned too.
Cash Crop yea fr.. every single one of John Geiger’s bullshit shoes are DIRECT rips of his work. Sad to see a guy with a weird last name be able to completely take advantage of someone like D who has been grinding for years to get to this point
Okay SIA's shoes really fits my type of style. It fits both techwear and casual. Seriously thank you for giving them more exposure that they deserve. ♥️
When I found out about SIA and the story behind it I was impressed and finding out that D now lives The Bay was a bonus because I love supporting the home team. I got the SIA Sock Runners a while back but unfortunately the Culture Vultures sold out before I could get some. Hopefully I can on the next drop. Great video and much respect for showing love to the up and coming brands out there. Anyone interested in learning about the man behind SIA check out his interview on the Breakfast Club, he's doing big things. ✌🏾
No doubt. I'd clip that and release it in a smaller video. It's really a well put, concise message. Really hit me today. As always, great content. Keep it up.
those SIA shoes are fire!! for sure getting me a pair, thanks for the message at the end. im starting a podcast and felt insecure but this brought me back. Keep in doing great videos bro!
Great video showcasing under the radar brands. I actually ended up buying both colorways in the SIA because they just had a pre order restock for the culture vultures so I can’t wait to get them in!
I stumbled upon your channel, watched one then another and another. Consider me subscribed for life. Your attitude is out standing and you have a developed character of maturity. Thank you for your content.
I have the KARHU Fusion 2.0 in green and brown tones! I must say one of my fave sneakers/trainers in my collection. worn them a bunch since getting them! They defo deserve more recognition for sure!!!
So while working on my brand and sending a ton of emails/dms out this morning I have this video playing on my TV and on my speakers, as always I watch and listen attentively. As it's going off I'm getting ready to put music on (***LilWayne Funeral***) and you start to speak again. I believe in perfect timing because I have had nothing but troubles in the past 48hrs and that message just brought the little bit of light I needed as a reminder to keep going and keep working. As always, I appreciate you for bringing us and myself personally content with more than just entertainment, but genuine value as well. We as men, and black men more specifically need it. A true blessing you are brother, thank you.
Man that means a lot! Especially since I almost didnt put it in the video - but then I was like “Devan, if you don’t then you’re being a hypocrite!” Keep pushing brother 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Dope brands! As you said at the end, just go for it! That's why I started my shoeline in late 2019 and already had 2 successful runs! I have less 300 followers on IG and just focused on my pure followers! Thanks Devan for supporting small brands 👊
Subscribing to this channel was the best thing I've done in a while! All these guys with millions of subscribers/followers just trying to upload videos on a daily basis, and then there's this guy, producing great objective content. Well, all in all, props to you Devan, great stuff! 🔥
I bought a pair of Karhu Aria 95's in November, and it was one of the best sneaker purchases I've made! It has a lightweight, booty construction like an UB or Gel Lyte V, but the suede just classes it up way more. While it's a stiffer suede, I think it suits the shoe better than a soft suede because it helps it maintain it's shape around the toe box. Only downside is the insole, I definitely had to swap them out for something a little thicker. But they're definitely a brand I hope to get more pairs of down the road!
Preciate yoo promoting Us ...instead of Gossip gurlin against another brother it's getting old but this should be the NEW Wave brothers helping brothers instead of hating...thanks again imma cop some of dude kicks2
I’m a young black designer and could use support from all angles. Check my customs out when you get a chance please! www.aliveshoes.com/kftsxmaterialistic-2
Hell yeah! Happy Sunday with a DevanOnDeck video! As you said the first Finnish brand remind me me a lot of New balance. I don't know the 2nd brand, I will check that now. Now Sia collection is straight fire.
You got good taste in fashion bro Devlin Carter's brand SIA is fire I watched his Breakfast Club interview he's a dope designer those other sneakers look comfortable too I got a brand you should rock Buscemi
All the brands are LEGIT! I think it’s time for my boy to accomplish one of your goals and create your own shoe! Videos keep getting doper and doper man, keep it up!
Yo thank you for this bro I’m definitely copping a pair of those SIA joints. Another dope brand is Clearweather based in LA I believe, there Interceptor model is my favorite, the boots are dope too. Hope you make another one of these, you most definitely put me on lol.
hell yes, karhu is amazing. i was hoping id seem them on there and the fact they lead the way, you got all the credibility. way better than hypebeast shoes, especially in build quality. the patterns and design are always visually nice too.
some of my top sneakers I already wear, crazy. First seen Karhu when ye was wearing them, seen Devlin on Breakfast club a while back. I also bought some shoes from a company called clearweather a few years back and the quality is up there with SIA. All premium leather/suede and some dope unique silhouettes. Good taste my guy
I don’t mess with SIA. I remember back in the day when he was fbcc sole dye. Dude didn’t have a filter back then n just spit hate n put others down. Just an FYI for y’all that wanted to understand his personal brand a lil bit. I know wearing products from someone that puts out negative energy is not something I do. He’s doing better now and onto better things. I just know that’s who he used to be when he had no money or fame or spotlights on him and therefore is who he truly is. But one thing I do respect is his hard work and dedication. But yeah that’s all. Lmao
You should check some more Swedish brands out. Examples of Swedish clean brands can be: hope, Our legacy, acne studios (obviously). But especially hope
Great video. Let me tell you a few things, First off, I never really watch many of your videos because I don't completely agree with your style choices (mostly because I'm much older, I'm more of a business minded dresser and my built is very much different from yours) but I remained suscribed to you because as a black man I felt I needed to support you. Today I saw your video and honestly I watched it only because I had no clue as to what a hypebeast was. I really enjoyed this video and I like all three brands that you covered herein even though I don't personally wear sporty shoes like these but on the tip that these are not famous and most people are sleep on em and they don't have recognizable names on them, I would buy them- I hate labels. I hate for my clothes to declare themselves. I like clothes that look nice without a label on them because most people buy things simply for the label attached. What's really deep to me is the final words you put at the end of this vid- that was a great encouragement man and I feel like that was a special message just for me. Not only do I suffer severely from over-thinking but I also procrastinate. I can see from your videos and the overall arrangements prevailing therein and from your words that you too are plagued with an acute attention to detail so I know your words were sincere when you said this and I appreciate it- I'ma try to do it too! I've been trying to start a business for a while now but your vid today is the push that I needed. Thanks. Your content is excellent, well done, professional and stylish. Your tips are very essential and substantial. I'll be checking you out more in the future.
Just in case you missed it *This Is NOT a Sponsored Video* - The 3rd Shoe In This Video I BOUGHT as a customer and fan of the brand 😁
Good thing you said this because ppl will jump to conclusions fast LMAO
In The Netherlands, like 1/20 people are rocking Karhu ;)
I was hoping Axel Arigato would be on the list.
FILLING PIECES is the IIIshhhh
@@bahatipatrick212 filling pieces and common projects are great! I have a couple pairs of both. So good.
If those last ones had Nike or Adidas on them al the hypebeasts would be wearing them
I agree 100%
BlueWaffles ForBreakfast big facts
I actually disagree, they look like Ivy Park Nite Joggers. We're talking about a Beyonce x Adidas collab and hype beasts still didn't lose their sh*t. I like the WS and SIA sneakers but there's nowhere near enough material in the William Strouch's for me to justify $160, independent or not.
Erik J those are ugly that’s why
Facts!!
The world needs more guys like this. Guys who appreciate great stuff without the need for every Instagram page to endorse it
Its dope to see SIA get some exposure. The owner has been grinding hard for years and have been copied by Johnny Gieger a couple of times. But he on the map now. Black owned too.
Yeah man.... a lot of vultures copying his style over the years - can’t keep a real one down though!
Cash Crop yea fr.. every single one of John Geiger’s bullshit shoes are DIRECT rips of his work. Sad to see a guy with a weird last name be able to completely take advantage of someone like D who has been grinding for years to get to this point
Sia sneakers are so dope they a lil pricey but ima still get some
Who cares if its black owned? If the shoe wack its wack.
Copied how? SIA literally got their design from alibaba and just slapped their logo on the tag..still dope though 🤷🏾♂️
Okay SIA's shoes really fits my type of style. It fits both techwear and casual. Seriously thank you for giving them more exposure that they deserve. ♥️
When I found out about SIA and the story behind it I was impressed and finding out that D now lives The Bay was a bonus because I love supporting the home team.

Great video and much respect for showing love to the up and coming brands out there.
Anyone interested in learning about the man behind SIA check out his interview on the Breakfast Club, he's doing big things. ✌🏾
Yeah I just now saw that interview like yesterday! Devlin’s energy and sincerity is A-1 .... plus he hella talented
Oakland city in the house!
He has a bad character in my opinion but he still makes nice sneakers cant take that away from him
The surprise message At The End 😩🙌🏼 I felt that!!!
No doubt. I'd clip that and release it in a smaller video. It's really a well put, concise message. Really hit me today.
As always, great content. Keep it up.
those SIA shoes are fire!! for sure getting me a pair, thanks for the message at the end. im starting a podcast and felt insecure but this brought me back. Keep in doing great videos bro!
Glad I could help and yes SIA is insane w/ the kicks
The added bit at the end. This is why I track with Devan
Great video showcasing under the radar brands. I actually ended up buying both colorways in the SIA because they just had a pre order restock for the culture vultures so I can’t wait to get them in!
You have great taste *and fast fingers* to get both pair before they sold out haha
I stumbled upon your channel, watched one then another and another. Consider me subscribed for life. Your attitude is out standing and you have a developed character of maturity. Thank you for your content.

Devan, those piano black William Strouch sneakers are hot and sold out. Grrrrr
Yeah I know right?
So while working on my brand and sending a ton of emails/dms out this morning I have this video playing on my TV and on my speakers, as always I watch and listen attentively.

@@DevanOnDeck You're welcome bro, keep up the good work!
Needed these kinda videos to expand my sneaker collection !! Sometimes you need a little different kinda kicks.
6:37-7:05 Best part of the video!!!!
Hey thanks for that 🙏🏾
I really felt this too. "You are blocking your own blessings"
I bought a pair of Karhu Aria 95's in November, and it was one of the best sneaker purchases I've made! It has a lightweight, booty construction like an UB or Gel Lyte V, but the suede just classes it up way more. While it's a stiffer suede, I think it suits the shoe better than a soft suede because it helps it maintain it's shape around the toe box. Only downside is the insole, I definitely had to swap them out for something a little thicker. But they're definitely a brand I hope to get more pairs of down the road!
Yes to Stop Blocking Your Blessings
Preciate yoo promoting Us ...instead of Gossip gurlin against another brother it's getting old but this should be the NEW Wave brothers helping brothers instead of hating...thanks again imma cop some of dude kicks2

As a Fin its great to see Karhu getting some recognition, also karhu translates to bear in finnish.
