- How many remember Kr3w? In the mid 200s during the golden era of streetwear, Kr3w was one of the more based brands on the market.
They focused on quality over flash, and as a result, were able to carve out a lane and ingratiate tons of fans. But over the years, they seem to have disappeared from the earth
Ever wonder why that is? Let's find out, I'm Nate the Great from Takeflight214.com and this is the rise and fall of Kr3w.

I don't know who needs to hear this but they're back
KR3W definitely helped pioneer the skinny jean era, they were so badass and everyone wanted some high top Supras. Good old days to be skater
Back in the day you would only see me in kr3w and fallen, occasionally Emerica. I miss the hype kr3w had.
It was krew, element and circa for me
Same
omg the emerica hsus!! i wanted them so bad @@DKR3W
I miss KR3W. It was a major element of my younger years. It inspires me with the life, business & brand that I’m building, and your video gave me some insight into what to do myself. Thank you.
Damn I honestly could never afford Kr3w jeans back in the day.. but they were one of my favorite skate brands... I dont skate much these days but I have the money so when I could not find any product I ended up stumbling on this video... what a bummer man. One day I will get the rights to kr3w and bring it back to the skating community. Its a piece of skate wear history in my eyes, and a classic.
Just found my old kr3w hat black with the green K , miss them days
I had so many pairs of Kr3w jeans I grew up in super skinny jeans with reynolds 2 and 3s on my feet.. I miss those days!
KREW is back under the same ownership 👀
Where? CCS doesn’t have anything which is surprising to me. But yeah can’t find anything new
This used to be the hardest company. I remember I had a black Krew dress shirt as my grad shirt in 2013. Bake and destroy just dropped. Pretty sure Erik Ellington lizard king and Greco were also on the Krew team at the time too with a pair of maroon Herman G6 skate shoes on my feet or a pair of TK stacks. Used to have a pair of the shake junt supra collab TK😂
just picked up practically new KR3W jeans at thrift store and I'm stoked
I’ve got a bunch of kr3w denim still
Just bought some k-01 trousers off their site a couple weeks ago, out of morbid curiosity. It came up in convo how they used to be such a staple and have such a stacked team.
Actually ended up loving the trousers - thick, stretchy, soft, even a tad big which I like. Might be my new favorite skate pants. They also tossed in a bunch of stickers, some free socks, and a hand-written thank-you note. Not sure if they’re back up under k-Swiss still, but I was lowkey impressed
You know, lately, it has been real hard to get both KR3W and Supra stuff on the second hand online market.
A decade ago you could scoop stuff even for a steal.
So there is indeed a surge of interest in both brands.
I'm just glad I managed to get my hands on the grail I could had never imagined owning:
*The Supra x Sony Piiq Complex Skytop 2's.*
Among other things, which I'll soon be uploading.
Thanks for the video, I skated during the rise of kr3w & it's golden Era, me & all my people had the kr3w denim, corduroys & hoodies... tied em off with a shoe lace & skipped school to take the bus downtown & cause mayhem everywhere "no skateboarding" was posted up 🤙🏽
This vid needs more views. Loved my K-Slims back in the day.
I remember getting a Krew zip up in white and gold when I was like 11 or 12 and never heard of the brand. Then saw it popping up all over the place after that. Same happened with Stussy for me, my Dad always got me some drip ahead of the curve 🔥
Omg I found it in my wardrobe in a suitcase! It used to be so big on me now it fits snug as fuck 😂 a bit dusty though 😬
Picked up one of their flannel shirts today at the Goodwill Bins for $1.56. 100% cotton, medium weight. Inside tag says 2017. I could tell it was decent by the fact it doesn't get a ton of wrinkles. I don't like steaming shirts to get wrinkles out.
I still have two pairs of the Kr3w Andrew Reynolds Jeans with the built in lace belt and button fly LOL. Haven't worn them since I was prolly 15 years old (2006 era) but just can't throw em away. They were definitely the first pair of jeans I ever had with elastane mixed denim so they stretched nice for skating (game changer). I was rocking the Emerica Reynolds 3's too that came with the fake diamonds you could stick in the top shoelace hole. Damn these videos are a trip/ time capsule. Mad Respect for these videos homie!
Had like 6 pair of Kr3w jeans and a bunch of hats and shirts
Glad I found this vídeo, definitely checking out the Karmaloop one next. Krew is officially back since August 22, 2022, hopefully they more colorways for their denim soon.
wow. so much knowledge tied to my childhood i had no idea linked together
Sad man :( i remember a clean ass pair of chocalate colored chinos i had from kr3w when i was a teen just getting into skating. Sounds like the OG owners walked away with a bag, can't blame em. Not a suprise what happened after. Hope theyre all doing good though. Thanks for the video man i def enjoyed it
My dad used to have a skateboard shop and he had a vintage kr3w shirt and he lost it at a lake last year and I want to get him a new one for Father’s Day but it’s literally NOWHERE I’m so sad
I have a Kr3w letter jacket as well as the sk8 hoodie at 1:22 of this video. 😊
I never fitted into their jeans, they were to skinny for me. But I liked their skulls tees a lot as a teen and only kept one tee that still fits me 😅
kr3w was 100% the first popular brand for skinny jeans. punks and metal heads were wearing 'skinny jeans' in the 70/80s but dudes were actually wearing womans jeans before kr3w came out
Or me er going to the skate shop in like 2006 getting krew pants and being so hype. I had so many pairs wish I kept them. Too bad I was like a 26 waist then lol
They still have a website with merch, just bought a hoodie
Wtf is kswiss ? Great video im nostalgic at 30, this brand will be popular in 5 years like ecko or lrg. I feel like for the moment everybody forgot about dre uh kr3w
yeah. i loved the krew brand too. hurt me right in the feels when i heard it broke.
this is so funny i thought i was the only one who rememberred this brand
Makes me sad man😢
Kr3w has the best fitting pants I ever owned. Altamont is second best
Damn I had that hoodie. That shit was hard as fuck
Their cords whete legit. Bought 3 pairs. I also had their blazer. Had it for over a decade, but ended up selling it online for alot less for what I got it for. Thats the times. Unless you're in the know, no kid these days is looking for Andrew Reynolds corduroy pants and jeans on the second hand market. I wish I had a pair.
I had a kr3w peacoat back in the day. obama era baybee
KR3W did help make skinny jeans popular. I remember when dudes could only get skinny jeans from the women's section. KR3W may have not been the first men's brand to drop skinny jeans but they were were one of the first at making them popular. In 2007, in middle school, if you didn't have some KR3W super skinny's you were a lame 😆
Naw never wore krew or supra, kinda seemed like they were a “start-up to sell” type brand (which they eventually did). We always had white tees with dickies or Ben Davis with vans.
Why did you take alife and crooks videos down?
I didn’t there still up
2015*
I always thought krew was owned by Andrew Reynolds Greco and Ellington lol I just associated them with emerica and baker. I only wore krew jeans in like 2004-2007 but I never got on the supra hype they always looked whack to me even with muska Ellington and Greco(?) tied in
Texas Patrick silent partner..
Kr3w footwear had a tiny run of shoes
They never had shoes
@@johnmoyarbmg5845 they did i have a pair its called “grant low”, google it i dare you
