Thank God there are people hating vulcs here. I thought I was alone who cant skate in thin faggot shoes like Era and than useless shit. Had ONE pair of Vans and that will never happen again, no fucking support what so ever, hate them. I need something like éS Accel, fat tongue, great shape and thick layer around my feet. Im a skateboarder, not a balett dancer, I need support and a shoe that lasts at least two months. Last shoe, Koston one, lakai remake lasted me five months. Thats a shoe! A fucking thin cloth melted into a rubber sole is not.
To answer the question, Vans Old Schools, junk. How people skate shoes this thin (Era, Janoskis, etc) is beyond me. But Im sure that five years from now, the real skate shoes will be back. I think Kalis said that DC could not give him new shoe because the market demands 70 dollar slip ons so we have to wait. My problem with this is that its is near damn impossible to find a real skate shoe like Accel in shops because idiots want nothing but Vans and even worse Converse. Even Fallen Chiefs are gone. So you stand there like an dumbass and hope to maybe find a fucking Circa 208 I would not touch a couple of years ago. Dark days for us 90s shoe skaters. I cant skate in stupid Chuck Taylors which last two days, flat out refuse.
