If you’ve followed Complex for the last few years, you know we’re big fans of the Telford. First it was the Newports (that may or may not appear on a certain list we have coming up) then it was the all-blue colorup, then the stars, and well, you get the idea. For fall, the skate brand took its best model and dressed it in all grey nubuck. It’s a step up, and if you’re skating in them, you better be prepared to shred the shit outta the uppers. We’ll wear with jeans. No, posers.

These Telfs are already available, so if you're feeling them, head over to Eastbay (?!) to cop.
