About as boring as you can get. It's more plain than any other skate shoe on the market.
Here we have, CONS killing the game with original and innovative designs...
what's with the thread hopping to just hate on Cons?
Sorry if I express my opinion on a skateboard forum:
I had one pair of CTS two years ago, and they were some of the worst shoe ever, never felt so much pain on my feet and I've ridden tons of vulc shoes from corporate and non corporate shoes. So my only experience with CONS was awful.
I find their designs repetitive and unoriginal, and they lack of any artistic direction, but the still aren't cheap.
Most of their campaign are cheesy as fuck (don't wear shoes, wear sneakers...).
Since they came back to the game they didn't release any original or innovative model from either design or technical point of view from what I can recall.
They are just following the bandwagon and their shoes aren't even on par with brands like Lakai, Emerica.
If it weren't for the money that makes them able to afford having a stacked team, and making tons of advertising they would not sell just based on the quality/originality of their design.
The only thing I can back is their team even if there is no direction behind it, and giving Rune and Zered (among others) some money. Their euro team is also really good.
