Best non-skate shoes you've skated in.

[Sony MDR V2 headphones]

Found these for 11$ and they have a nice flick.



Also found at goodwill.

[ahlee]

i use to skate shelltoes way back in the day.

[grimcity]

I don't know what name they go under, but for a few years I skated in a Nike cut that looked a helluva lot like todays current SB Dunk lows. I have some Asics that are a little scuffed up from my broke days, too.

[venuskukko]

I tried skating some af1s and they were horrible, such a thick sole

[pivot2fakie4u]

reebok classics

[asdfdsa]

For years I've been buying regular dunks on ebay for $20.

[Duffy]

damn, was gonna make this topic last night.

Obviously dunks, dunk highs aren't bad either.
Some real good ones are vandals and vandal highs..

[asdfdsa]

Yeah I forgot to say they've gotta be dunk highs.

[Blue Fescue]

Some Nike running shoes about 10 years ago.  They gripped really well but the meshy stuff ripped really fast.

[CigaretteBeer]

Vans slip ons and these old style Reeboks.

[yourmomsnewboyfriend]

[Anton]

nike tennis classic and shelltoes

[metsuri]

Shelltoes for me too. I had quite a few pairs back in the day.

[Beautifull]

Puma Sky 2

[RABERDEEN]

[Class Of 1992]

I used to skate in Timberlands back in like....1995 or so...but shelltoes were always good....oh shit.....if we are talking about 1989 though....British Knights.

[Balls Deep]

Black Shell Toe High Tops with White Stripes. The kind Drake Jones use to wear. The make you do perfect tre flips cause when you look down at your feet you feel like you're drake (ninites drake that is)

[BallDontLie]

adidas campus

[phillip dominguez]

nike cortez, but not the ones that are out today, these had small square soft rubber cleats on the sole

canvas tretorns were the best gripping shoe ever but only lasted four days

[BRSeth]

[donnie_murdo]

Reebok classic - the ones they turned into there skate shoes, that's like 15 years ago, they cost £20 lasted a 2 weeks, looked sick, had protection in them when all you could get was Strombolies and Dukes

Then Air Force 1's and various other Nikes that were in sales.

They all end up the same - ripped and in the bin

[Guile]

gazelles and shelltoes as far as the minds eye can see.

[damian]

in white & blue, learned both switch pop shove its in them.



neither shoe had much to any board feel, but i just used to it and just loved them. a shoe is a shoe, more or less.
