you guys interesting the the DC COLE. should probably check out the HUF pro. its a better shoe.
THIS.  If you guys don't like DC enough to take the logos off, why are you giving them your money?  Makes no sense.

Lots of shoe companies make great shoes,why rock something that you feel the need to tear the logo off though?Even with no logo I still know they're dc's. Not having it.

It's not even that. I'd just rather not be rocking a DC logo, smell me?

But I guess it just goes back to these points:

Eh the logo is pretty small and that wolf on the tongue is sweet! I just really really don't like DC as a company but I've heard nothing but good things about Cole's shoe.

you guys are ridiculous

I've actually been only wearing Nike's for a few months now. I don't dislike DC because they're not 100% skate anymore or they sell their stuff in the mall. I dislike them because they come across so damn corny all the time. Mo's and Nyjah's welcome video had me cringing hard(except for Nyjah's tricks at the end of the video). I back Nike because I'm even interested in their non skate shoes(I remember there was a time when all I wanted were air-force ones), I usually love the colorways they come out with, and Blazers get me erect.

Nike's are the shit. I wear alot of other brands but Nike is always gonna be in my top 3. lately ive been on my supra shit cuz they pretty much fit my my style to a T and im really tryna support their movement. Gay Imp's just tryna say some shit cuz he a Sk8D00D stan.

i'm not sure what a "sk8dood stan" is but anyways...
my response was simply in reply to people saying that they wanted to buy dc's and then rip the logo off ... why?
if you don't want to rock dc (for whatever reason), don't, it's that simple ;)

So true.  One of the best things I ever heard, while skating, was a friend of mine telling some kid at Gabriel park to "get out of the way, I have a mortgage."  At a certain age I think you just stop giving a shit about everything, except having fun, especially when you have other crap going on.

hell yeah i actually enjoy showing up at skateparks ina baggy ass t-shirt, basketball shorts & dunks while getting all these weird looks at first & then mindfucking all the shitty lil kickflip-challenged zumiez kids when i actually start skating. i feel like if you really care about how you look to other people while skating then you missin the whole point of this shit.

Hahaha!  A bunch of SLAP Pals and I were at the Baton Rouge skatepark and there was these little 12 year old kids just SHREDDING, and all of us are pretty much the old dude squad- married, some with kids, most of us in our 30s and we just started shouting at the kids all this ridiculous shit to one up them

"Oh yeah, well I'm not a virgin!"

"I don't have a curfew OR homework!"

"I can buy alcohol!"

and my favorite- "Enjoy your future because I just fucked up your economy!"



Hmmm im probably gonna be pretty concerned about my image still before i'm about 30

21 - 30... it still matters

For those of you that have experience with Vox shoes... how is the durability on the shoe's bottom sole?

It looks just like the sole that Nike uses so I'm sure that they grip well, but I don't know about the material they use compared to Nike.

It's been sooo long, but I had the troopers. They were actually my first vulcs ever and I remember thinking, "oh, god. these things hurt so bad."

As for durability, I can't say specifically, but the entire shoe was pretty meh, so the durability was probably meh. I don't know, dude. There's just so many better shoes you could skate that I wouldn't waste my time with Vox - unless you're getting them on the mad cheap.

I've had a few pairs of the Troopers and Drehobl's first shoe. The grip does wear down quicker than normal. Grip is average. I like them enough to buy more.
