Gino!



A photo and a sequence of Gino Iannucci from Big Brother. Not the best photos, but it's Gino, so definitely worthy post material. I don't know how he skates in those Reeboks. Anyway, these are from a Freshjive Japan tour article.

He ran those when he was here as well. Marlboro lights soft pack in the sock as well.

Sick! When was this?

P. M said...

completely unrelated but...

would it be too much to ask for some Quim related goodness sometime soon?

Royce59 said...

HF -

99? Him and Milton.

Royce - Sick, I was lucky enough to have seen Keenan skate in person but never Gino.

p. m - I like Quim; I'll try and dig something up soon.

Royce59 said...

Milton was running some DC Cosmos Carrolls shoe. It was weird. hahaha

Royce59 said...

Sick!

Man I always wanted to skate those Reebok Workouts because I would see people like Gino and the other World dudes rocking them, but when I finally found a pair in a store, probably like 6 years later (but before DGK RBK), I gave the sole the thumb test, and they felt rock hard. I was really dissapointed.

P. M - If you're looking for some Quim related goodness, may I suggest QUIMTIME! (Sorry, I had to.)

ex-o-fits, not workouts. a few months ago i got lucky and found a pair of the old version, like those, for $15 on the world's number one marketplace.

Gino is that guy!

Workouts are real good to skate in imo, they hold up pretty well too.

Used to skate in some icy sole jump offs when i was younger, so dope!

hairfarmer said...

Looks like workouts to me, Ex-O-Fits don't have the side piece with those extra lace hole flap things. I tried skating them once when me and my friend Wade swapped kits for jokes. I remember the grip being good, but the leather really slippery. I still would love a pair to wear around though, or maybe some Fila OG fitness' instead which are pretty similar.

Watson said...

Oh man, I was always so stoked on the Fila OG Fitness, but now it's the go-to shoe of little G-Unit assholes from Footlockers worldwide.

hairfarmer said...

Watson - Really? I never see anyone wearing them around here, but then again I don't really pay much attention. I gotta hunt down a pair.

Watson said...

Maybe I am thinking of the Fila F-13. The high top with the velcro strap. You can get them in like all green, all red, all yellow, like matching sole and everything, camo, fuckin half and half. Tons of whack shit colours.

hairfarmer said...

Watson - Okay, that makes sense. The OG fitness are the Filas that Staples were modeled after. So dope, I remember Jason Dill skating them way back when he was still hella fresh. There was a sick centerspread in Big Brother where he was doing a switch crook on a huge green block, running khakis and black Fila OG fitness. I would actually fucking love to post it but i put it up on my bedroom wall twelve years ago and my parents tore it down when I moved. Bummer.
Anyway, they sell F-13's here but only in gross colours, and yes, they are commonly seen on the feet of huge kooks.
