... but kinda boring

Super Fucking Boring.. Could've taken Dill's name out of the title and nobody would have known the difference.

Leather Upper, Colored DRI-Tech, & Starks Laces.. not very impressive.

At least some of Jason Dill's hipster ass followers will flock to these.. He got big and Syndicate is using him to sell their product, it seems, which I don't agree with.

That being said, the interiors of these look nice and both colorways are cool, I just wish they chose a different model. I undertand that this shoe skates well so I'm down for this release. Just not the affiliation with Dill, mister "up river".

personally these don't say "Jason Dill" to me but whatever. Not a fan.

That seller is pretty cool. I copped a pair from him in the past. Wish SAMPLES came in 8

I was sampled in these a while back and ran the black ones for a month straight...the pebble grain is a super nice texture and makes the shoe... has a great vibe of classy / skate.

The wheat I hated the first time I saw them, but have since completely 180'd my opinion.... just so perfect with a pair of jeans and white tee. I have yet to see dill wear a single derby s to this day, but I can see him rocking them in my brain and even that is enough to stoke me out....but I am definitely a fan.

All the little details of these 2 colorways I was hesitant about at first (bright blue soles, braided lace, etc...) but they look good, skate good, and materials are excellent. That makes a solid release in my book.

AND Derby's are pretty comfortable too! It's a good shoe, but of course no hype associated with it, so most of us won't like it.

[rocketgoof]

Even Dill needs a casual shoe from time to time, right? The derby's are definitely a good shoe for that. I wear mine to work a lot and I know I wasn't a huge fan of them in the beginning. They wear well and have a lot of nice durability. Granted, I'd still prefer a zero lo, but these are decent and they've grown on me! The smooth black leather pair could be a nice replacement for my black/lake blue pair if I feel the urge... Then again, I still have zero lo's I need to bust out!

[silokinesis]

^^^ I am hoarding some zero lo as well 100% on board with your entire statement.

[wolfstrice09]

Wouldn't happen to have the Burgundy in size 12 would you Brant?

[ssbsts]

my damn dog ate my last pair of zero los. i really hope they come back into the line someday.

[wolfstrice09]

Honestly now that they have been GR'd I don't see that happening...

The cool thing about them when they released as a Syndicate was that it was the first time anyone had ever seen that shoe. When Vans made it a GR they took away its "coolness".

[DJGuamstyles]

Yeah true! The Zero Lo "S" is supposed to be coming out as a Supreme release again, right? Remember that IG pic of the royal blue pair?
