Title: Cody McEntire Pro Vox Shoe
Post by: FakieBacksideHalf-Cab on February 10, 2014, 01:52:12 PM
I personally think that the shoe is almost a direct knockoff of the old Habitat Austyns but since they stopped making the shoe, what's to stop Vox from making this? I think it's going to find itself a market in lovers of Austyn's shoe. Thoughts?

Crazy how these shoe companies can't even come up with original ideas. The Austyn shoe didn't even look good. But good for Cody though cause I never thought I'd see the day he have his own pro model.

Cody should be on a more legit company. No disrespect to vox, but their art direction is like nothing and I can't get into any of their shit. I'm surprised they're still in business to be honest.

Years ago I had two pair of the Hewitt 1 shoe and they were decent. But oddly, for a suede shoe the upper broke down really fast on both pairs. I actually wanted to try a pair of Navarette's shoe but couldn't find them anywhere.

Had the Hewitt in this color:

i used to hate on vox, but i'm down if they wanna keep supporting skaters and make affordable shoes.  not gonna jump up and buy any, but i'm not mad if other people do.  i do think they can step up their game, but what do i know?  i don't own a skate shoe brand. 


congrats cody!
