Man Koston has the internet going nuts like Paul Wall. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there were skate paparazzis hanging outside of Koston's house hoping to get a long lens photo of his feet to see what shoes he's wearing. I actually wouldn't be surprised if skate paparazzis were invented based upon this one sponsor change. Someone should start a skateboard tabloid. Oh wait, I think that's exactly what we're running here at YouWillSoon. Ouch.

In any case, everyone's watching the Frost Man's feet lately, and the internet got buzzin a little when Koston showed up the day after the announcement that he's off Lakai wearing what appears to be Vans Eras on Wednesdays With Reda. I don't blame anyone for paying attention to this, but let's just keep in mind that this really doesn't mean shit yet. There's several reasons for this.

1. That WWR was most definitely filmed and edited much before Koston made his announcement that he was leaving Lakai.

2. I think it's pretty common knowledge that pros don't wear their sponsor's shoes at all times. When you're out chillin, pretty much everyone slips into Vans or Nikes. Hell I heard that Carroll showed up to Braydon's shoe release party wearing Eras too. Don't mean shit.

3. In what may be a YWS exclusive, I got an e-mail from a friend of ours who was talking to one of Koston's close friends today and was told that Koston is a free agent, and is waiting for offers. So it looks like Koston did not in fact leave Lakai for a better offer, but in fact left Lakai in order to find a better offer. So wherever we think he is headed, nothing is set in stone yet.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go camp outside of Koston's house waiting to catch a glimpse of his feet.
