I copped a pair of these off a shop that had a ton of old DS shoes (including lots of Saviers)

These were so grippy, shame they didn't use the sole on other shoes at the time.

I feel like we had this thread several times but anyway:

Yeah, I know, but I couldn't find the threads.

Fair enough, at least you tried.

I like these but don't agree they belong in the best looking list. I had these in black and wound up cutting them down to mid/lows as the seem line and i think they looked even better that way.

Same.  Airwalks were the best shoes of the time.  These had the most amazing rubber, and strong, soft suede.  Like supportive slippers.  Mine were mostly shoe goo by the time I threw them.

Don't know what it is but these, the grey with blue soles and the black Howard's with red soles always remind me of these ghostbusters toys I had as a kid. Think it's the clear gummy outsoles

I was mighty partial to these K7s.

damn. really wanted these at the time but couldn't afford the more premium models.

always liked the herman2

[cucktard]

I just remembered these

[Crabby_Bastard]

I agree the Converse Pro Leathers are some of the best looking skate shoes ever made (the lows, not the highs). They reissued the suede ones a few years back and I had a pair. They skated great. Seems like they only make the leather ones now; the suede ones are way better.

They have 2 colors of the suede version on the converse site now. Black, and green. I ordered the black yesterday.

So fucking sick, I'd also add these:



I swear if emerica dropped these now people would fw them heavy

Yeah the shoes were somewhat techy but still looked really clean

Reynolds 3's

Another example of emericas from that era that looking amazing as well imo

[funeral_tuxedo]

these were such beautiful shoes

[fulfillthedream]

[Uncle Flea]

Yep

[I Can't Think]

God I wish Nike would just have some consistent, clean dunk colorways like this regularly available

[finecojeffe]

[fulfillthedream]

this shoe was ahead of its time.

[finecojeffe]

it was...even the original it was based on was. I'm still kicking myself for not hoarding these. Adidas needs to rerelease them.

Brown ones were too brown for me.   But I can see how they were liked.   

I had those grey ones, but in the picture I ordered from the black was charcoal which I thought looked a lot better than the black, so I was always a little let down by them.   

[Mean salto]

Don't know what they did with those Silas but they had to be one of the lightest skate shoes ever made.(which as a size 13 wearer is something I care about) only prob was they came out in my one slimmer pants phase and couldn't make them look right.

[dr.prestige]

Suede VM001s look amazing. I also like black with white stripes or white with black stripes Superstars, they're pretty timeless to me.

This shoe needs to come back, I remember Chewy Cannon having some great clips in these

[slaab900turbo]

I can't find the exact ones but these are almost there.

Vans is crazy not to bring this shoe back.

Agreed. My favorite of all time. ✌️

[cant kickflip but can tre]

I'm sorry but I'm gonna go with the Janoski OG with the black stripe on the sole and leather laces. It looks great with slimmer pants and also works well with baggy pants imo. Super versatile and I'm still holding on to my 4 year old Janoski's

[Cuban_Lynx]

Showing my age but I'll always have a major soft spot for these...

I know the reissue is coming out in this navy/gum colorway in the next couple months. I’d cop for sure, but the white/gums were oddly shaped and all the toe boxes came pre-creased.
