Dirk was responsible for the designs which were recently released for the Ground Control and Vicious European line. Risemagazine caught up with him and talked about the design process, his skating past and what else we can see from Dirk. A great read and you can also check out some of his other work he is doing. We are happy to have Dirk on board with Swankrolling!

We are proud to announce the release of the European Ground Control line. We worked together with Rat Tail and Dirk Oelmann, our fashion designer, for this great release. Here is the first peek on the shoes which will be releases as limited edition for the Ground Control European line. They will be available in 2 colors: purple and grey.
As you can see at the shots, these are special made shoes for Ground Control which include a special stitching, a custom sole (with a sickle pattern) and they are high quality and very comfortable. We wanted to go away from the classic sneaker and make something different.
