Any Xennial Skaters here remember these and stash pockets?

One time back in about '99, I was at a Holiday Inn suite party in southern California with about 15 or so people on a Saturday night. I ended up going to the pool area by myself and I ended up getting hassled by security for being in the jacuzzi at 2am, drunk and blazed.
The security guard took out my wallet that was in my cargo shorts folded on the lounge chair near the jacuzzi next to my shirt and shoes (the black ones in this ad) and he took out my drivers license and said he wouldn't give it back to me. He said he would call the cops.
The intent was that he knew the cops would search me and figured he would get the satisfaction of seeing me get busted.
Two younger cops show up and ask what I was doing. I told them I was at a party at the hotel but drank and smoked too much and was in the Jacuzzi when the security guard took my ID out of my cargo shorts.
He said "Why didn't you just leave?" and I said "He wouldn't let me leave and called you guys."
They looked at him with an annoyed stare and said. "Ok put your shorts and shoes on and your shirt now that you are more dry and we will search you ok?"
I was like "Alright" and they asked if I had anything illegal I just said no. One cop found papers in my wallet and told the other "He is a roller."
Then they really politely said they would give me a ride home, opened the door for me, no handcuffs and treated the rent a cops like they should be at the kids table.
They dropped me off a block from my house and told me to take care. I unzipped the hidden zipper in the tongue of my Chad Muska pro model. Had a small pipe and some party favors, smoked to reflect on the events.
Thanks Chad Muska.

And Roos before them…
shrimpcreole@reddit
I loved my Roos. They could hold my house key and a folded up ten dollar bill for lunch.
Zaphod1620@reddit
$10 for lunch in the 80s?!? Did you eat lobster and steak for lunch every day?
GloomyAsparagus7253@reddit
Probably got $10 on Monday and it lasted all week.
Yogi_LV@reddit
The young latchkey kids best friend!
PrincessSarahHippo@reddit
Nostalgia made me buy a pair of Roos about a decade or so ago. Fabulous 👌.
flipnitch@reddit
I have two different sets of Ipath shoes that have stash pockets in the tongue of the shoes

One of my exes got arrested in a pair of Seedless pants. They had stash pockets sewn in the seams. When he got released, they “couldn’t find them.” 🙄 We were 99% sure one of the prison employees stole them to use themselves.
Sad_Training_1595@reddit (OP)
Wow... Seedless I remember they had a store in San Diego. Are they still around?
Hippy_Lynne@reddit
Lol, we bought them like a week before he got arrested so I was too superstitious to ever buy another pair. 😂
Aggravating-Alarm-16@reddit
You put your weeeed in it.
Does anyone remember where that came from?
BoysenberryKind5599@reddit
I always thought it was from Dazed and Confused but I recently found out it's from SNL.
-piso_mojado-@reddit
I say so many quotes now that I couldn’t begin to tell you where they are from. I thought that was from Half Baked…and I had to look the name of that one up.
Bermin65@reddit
It was a Rob Schneider sketch from SNL. At the time it was pretty funny but it’s a rough watch now.
-piso_mojado-@reddit
Everything Rob Schneider does/did is hard to watch. The only funny things he ever did Sandler and/or Herlihy wrote for him
Few-Emergency5971@reddit
Miss those!
binarypie@reddit
I had the blue ones!
nisamun@reddit
Nike started putting stash pockets on some of their dunk models over the past couple years.
Slim_Margins1999@reddit
I have several pairs of SBs with the Stash pocket. These are a 4/20 release, The “White Widows” and they have a stash pocket under the tongue
CopperWaffles@reddit
Hell yah I had these.
Chad Muska was my favorite skater and I even had a Shorty's deck. Nose slides were my trick.
I don't remember actually using the pocket but I'm sure I showed it off to everyone I knew in the most pretentious way possible.
Itchy_Ad_5782@reddit
We couldn’t afford Circa . But one time my best friends mom had a one night stand and he left his shoes behind ? Idk but they were new Muskas. Black and yellow . Black being primary . With steel shoe lace tips . I wore them to school for the day and gave them back lol
Li-RM35M4419@reddit
Remember Peter Smoliks Anti-SAG pants?
Sad_Training_1595@reddit (OP)
No no you are remembering that wrong, that's "Sag and no drag."🤣
Li-RM35M4419@reddit
That’s it, smolik didn’t have great fashion but he had great style
RobertBorden@reddit
I had them in red. I would do almost anything to have those shoes back
fromthedarqwaves@reddit
I had kangaROOS with a stash pocket.
Sad_Training_1595@reddit (OP)
Yeah I think these were not really for skaters. These are advertising they have a stash pocket and using a giant yellow kangaroo.
The Muska 901 you couldn't even see the sipper really, unless you took the shoe off and looked close.
saskies17@reddit
They re released the original Muskas. I bought a pair
sharkattack85@reddit
I used to store sacks in my Roos.
Lucky_Louch@reddit
Yeah Chad Muska gear had so many stash pockets, def kept me out of trouble in a couple situations.
iGotPoint999Problems@reddit
I was literally just THINKING about CCS this morning, wtf!
mattreyu@reddit
I had some black Sha Shas with glow in the dark flames and underneath the insole there was a secret compartment. Not as convenient to get into but a great stash spot
ekballo@reddit
In the early nineties we would cut tongues from one pair of shoes and add them to another pair to make them look puffier.
Super-History-388@reddit
I had some JNCOs with stash pockets - very handy for raves and clubs.
prettyminotaur@reddit
Same! The stash pocket on mine was inside a much larger pocket in such a way that you could THINK you searched that pocket and totally miss the stash. Good times.
DotAdministrative679@reddit
Uhhhh … yeah …. Huhhh
SlavaSobov@reddit
I would just pick up CCS and dream about all the stuff I couldn't afford. 🤣
Into the 2000s I was still rocking my 80s Marty McFly skate deck.
FoxExpensive9319@reddit
The quality of the skateshoes were realy good at that times
Disastrous-Tourist61@reddit
Hell yeah, never owned any myself though. Man I loved ordering from the CCS catalog!
Fair_Blood3176@reddit
That catalog was right up there with Victoria secret.
Disastrous-Tourist61@reddit
The good old days, when we had to use our imagination to jerk off!
Separate-Relative-83@reddit
Wow memories! My brother always shopped thru that catalog. He was wearing that Tshirt in our newspaper when we got a skate park in our small town 😂
stresstheworld@reddit
Saved my ass many a times when my mom made me empty my pockets, haha. Loved those shoes
Wrong-Local-4283@reddit
my kids are toddlers. but now i learned a something else to search in 8 years. thanks!!!
Sad_Training_1595@reddit (OP)
Indeed
Stsberi97@reddit
Yep and I had a skate tool called the board bud which functioned as a bowl as well as a tool. My parents bought me both and had no idea.
slayercdr@reddit
Thanks, now I really miss my CM901s. Awesome shoes
unicorn-beard@reddit
Muska has been releasing his own shoes and boards lately in small limited sets, pretty neat he’s still at it
marcuslattimore21@reddit
Chet Thomas globes were the shit too
marcuslattimore21@reddit
Hell yea triple stitched toe guard and high lace covers
Detroit_debauchery@reddit
I had the Es and the Circa Muskas
I_Dont_Functionn@reddit
for your...keys...lol. Yeah I remember these very well. Never bought a pair though. It was always awesome knowing you could finagel at least a couple things out of this catalogue from your parents for the new school year. Waiting for that package.
ridinbend@reddit
I remember making finger boards with ccs cut outs
TRGBFAN@reddit
Allaplgy@reddit
I begged for a pair. Parents finally caved. I got the white ones, because I'm an idiot. Maybe a day later, went exploring the coastal cliffs behind my buddy's house, just south of San Francisco. Ended up stuck knee deep in wet clay in a drainage ditch below a recently stabilizer section of cliff. My folks definitely never bought me $100 shoes again. It was 2-for-$50 deals split with a friend at Copeland Board Shop from then on out.
KLAM3R0N@reddit
Oh man a ccs catalog! Got my first board from them
Lumpy_Grade3138@reddit
My brother had these. Those pockets were not odor proof.
coci222@reddit
I don't remember those, but I remember Sho Sho's that had s hidden compartment under the insole
Intelligent_Pass2540@reddit
Omg I remember when I ordered like 4 Alien Workshop Ts to impress this skateboarder I was in love with in Middle School.
fakewoke247@reddit
I still have my dc shoes with the stash pocket
DJ1977_@reddit
Yup I remember! I also remember the baggy Foundation pants from the early 90s came with a condom in the pocket 🤣
Potential-Ant-6320@reddit
I've probably bought over a hundred pairs of shoes from CCS. They used to sell nike SBs online and when stuff woudl go on sale often there was a way to sell them for more.
TAAllDayErrDay@reddit
I had some Muskas like that. Don’t remember who made em. Osiris?
TAAllDayErrDay@reddit
lol I’m an idiot
Sad_Training_1595@reddit (OP)
The ones I had were Circa but you may have had the ES ones he originally had I think.
