Just curious for those of you that skate the busenitz regularly.
Do you notice a difference with grip from colorways? I have the all black ones and the grip was not so good.
But was wondering if the gum colored soles might feel more grippy? I've heard the color doesn't matter but for some reason I'm not convinced. Old habits die hard.

i had the same experience with the all black ones.
Skating the blue/gum right now and they are perfect.

i had the white and gum ones. and it felt like they had NO grip.. with MOB grip even.
busenitz is sick, the shoes look and feel great, but can't back em as skate shoes.

I loved the og ones, loved the black/dark gum ones, then I had the navy ones and they didn't grip at all, skated them 3 times probably, and then I had the blue/gum and they didn't feel grippy the first hour or two, but they broke in and got real good.

I want to pick up the black/gum ones but shoes usually last a pretty long time and i already have like 7 pairs in line that I want to skate, fuck, I bought 4 pairs last week... maybe I should take a break

Those blazers are nice! Nothing beats the good ol' black and white colorway though in my opinion.

Some other views of the new Busenitzes.  Looks like the grey one's have darker grey stripes and not black and they aren't sure on the ochre one's tongue yet.









I like how the gold ones look more tan than, well, gold. The first pics I saw had me worried, but tan isn't a bad color. I might buy'em to spice up my black-on-white shoe collection.

I will probably buy two pair of each of the new busenitz, the colors are awesome.  I hope the mustard colored ones get the black tongue.

CCS has some good colors left, and they have a $15 off when you spend $75 or more. I copped a pair of the plain jane black on whites for I think $52 to my door. Not bad for Boozes

I'm waiting for the day I see a pair of Busenitz for around 50 bucks. Shouldn't be too hard considering I got some Janoskis for 50.

victor333 was right, I just looked and CCS is selling them for $54 and there's probably some promo code shit floating around to knock that down a bit too.
I got curious and looked at Active and they have the grey and gum, and a dark blue with black stripes for sale.

New Busenitz colors make me want some, but I hate how the tongue moves to the side (yes, even with the cut that the laces go through on the tongue) :-\.  Other shoe brands should take notes from Adidas when it comes to colorways, they're different but subtle colorways that look clean.  Most of the Koston colorways other than black or navy have been too flashy for me.

Vans posts up newer colorways of the AV Sk8 Low but I never see them in stores.  I recently went to an outlet to look for some and came across a black/grey colorway that was on their site for the past few months, and I never saw it in stores.  I'm hoping the newer navy ones, and the all black ones make it to stores.

I've seen the navy ones in an outlet store already, at least down here in texas

Thanks everyone for the feedback about the Busenitz! Knowing how hard biggietoms searches down sales I wouldn't be surprised if he found some Busenitz for 30 bucks haha.

If Vans could deliver all-suede Old Skools in non-shitty colorways on the regular, I'd be set for life. Too bad, I guess.
