I'm guessing it's some price point model for most of them. Any thoughts?
-
I'd say the "Lasek GS-1" was probably the highest selling Genetic shoe.
-
each brand has a Juggalo waiter shoe that sells best
-
Nike would be Janoskis and Manchester for Lakai ?
-
speaking of waiters/waitresses, for vans it's probably black eras

Janoski
D3
Accel
Half cab
Something Reynolds

Nike- Janoski
Es - Koston 2 maybe (edit: I was tripping its definitely the accel, and according to my coworker the Koston 2 was only super popular on the east coast.)
Adidas - I dont know the name of it, but that real basic bitch cupsole thats in 30 colors
Vans - Old School or the era
Emerica - That Reynolds shoe from a few years ago
Supra - Skytop lol
DC - That basic bitch shoe with the bigass DC logo on the side that was poppin in 04-05
Lakai - Manchester

No way is Koston 2 the best selling eS shoe.

For real though, ES is probably the Accel, Etnies has the Faders (their equivalent to the aforementioned DC Court Graffik), DVS must have sold a million of those horrible dirtbike kid shoes the Militia or whatever, and Vans sells a ton of those weird Mall-Specific Vans that almost look like knock-offs but are really Vans.

eS- Accel
Etnies- Callicuts
Nike- Janoski
Emerica- Surely a Reynolds shoe. Maybe the 2s?
Vans- Probably Authentics or Eras. I seem to see people with them every time I leave the house.
Osiris- D3
Adidas- I feel like it has to be a Busenitz variant, but I feel like folks were running the Campus' super hard for awhile.
-
Honestly for emerica I'd put my money on the G-Code's. For etnies it's for sure the callicut

You're underestimating the proliferation of the Rowley. It was fuckin everywhere. Billboards in Times Square everywhere. Also old people only buy a particular pair of shoes once. Skaters buy them every month.

Adio - either the 1st Kenny Anderson or the Jeremy Wray model (don’t think it was the 1st)
Emerica - Reynolds 1?
eS - accel
Dvs - Kerry Getz 1
Vans - Rowley is so much bigger than the China for the sheer number of years it was around in comparison. Some of you guys gotta be fuckin stupid (or young) to think otherwise, not to mention the Rowley saved Vans back in the day. They were becoming a mall shoe until Rowley left Airwalk for them and dropped that banger of a shoe. Even the first XLT beats the Chima

Chima said in a Thrasher interview that his shoe was the number one selling shoe for Vans since it came out, so that has to be worth something. How long was the original Rowley shoe around for, anyways?
http://www.thrashermagazine.com/articles/chima-fergusons-propeller-interview/
Either way, the answer's probably half cabs.
-
Duffs - That one shoe they had
Puma - see "Duffs"
Halfcabs for pro models
Eras/old schools
Nike id say Janoski but maybe the dunk or blazer if that counts?
Adidas - Campus Vulc or Busenitz?
eS - i bought a pair of the pink/lepoard print first bloods so i want to say its them but probably accels or square 2's
Adio? i had bare of them as a kid but all their shoes look similar on reflection
Lakai - i dunno if the manchester or the staple has more?

I think it came out in 99 (that’s when Rowley got on) and was around at least a good six years and then was rereleased. It was THE shoe to wear for a while.

No way the Chima is near the Rowley yet. Back then Nike, Adidas, and Cons weren't a significant part of shoes sales.
Whoever said Adio, the Kenny 1 did sell like crazy, but don't forget about the Bam v2. Those shits were everywhere at the time.
The correct answer is likely the Reynolds 3.

And Chima probably means best selling out of their Skate line. No way that’s outselling slip-ons, authentics or any of those classics especially since sk8-his are super popular amongst tweens and teens at the moment

Bam V2 had to have been adios best seller, probably close to D3 numbers, I saw those shoes constantly in the wild around 2002-2004/5ish, I actually landed my first legit (non stationary, rolling) kickflip in that shoe.
Side note: I just looked it up and those shoes are selling for like $400 on eBay, weird seeing as there were so many pairs out there at one point in time.
What was that Savier shoe everyone had?
-
Pretty sure the most sold Vans shoe is the Old Skool
Adidas is definitely the Busenitz
Cons is probably the One Star
-
DVS - Probably one of the 47,000 pro models Daewon had.
-
vans- old skool and/or half cab (sure I had 7 + pairs of Rowley 1s but they were only on sale for a total of 5 or so years)
air walk - ones or maybe the Jim shoe? The various latter versions of the NTSs (not the go ones) had a good run in Aus though
eS - would probably be Sal's first shoe if they didn't sell it under the etnies umbrella for a while there too. Accel is defs up there
emerica - One of Reynolds shoes (1st or 2nd?) but don't discount Ed or MJ's first shoes because either would probably come in a close second
duffs - strambolli or whatever it was called. Kareem's joints coming in a close second
dukes - the only one that mattered
adio - yes, probs one of bam's shoes but the chief had some good ones too. What about them Bryan sumner joints?
circa - the shoe that keeps them afloat (i.e. Lopez's shoe)
DVS - Gavin's Stan smith ripoff
DC - tis a hard one ... but yeah probably the ones that juggalos love
-
Stoked on the amount of love rowley 1's are getting. I had so many. They were a favorite for a really long time.
-
Iirc Jeremy Wray said his 4th model was Adio's best seller of all time. But I'm willing to bet Kenny's first shoe was a close 2nd. I loved that shoe.
-
Yeas 'eS was the Sal 23, idk how Vans categorizes but the Rowley was one of their best selling strictly skate shoes when it was out, obviously the Half Cab has done some crazy numbers.

OG Vans era because theyve been around since 66'
1 of any of the models that have ~20 years on the half cab
-
vans - either the authentic or the old skool. so many fucking non skaters where black and white old skools. more then any other model imo.
huf - dylan or the choice? can't see cromer's shoe being there biggest seller.
dc - honestly its probably the court graffik or spartan high's, but could be an old shoe like the lynx maybe. unlikely though.
es - og accel easily.
emerica - reynolds 3's.
adidas - Bussenitz? every season they release like 5 colors of both vulc and cup, and its been around over 10 years now.
nike - janoski of course.
converse - chuck's.
lakai - machesters, i think they have been consistently around the longest.
supra - skytop duh.
NB - some shoe with a 5 digit number.
entries - Marana? Or the puffy's with the big enties logo near the heel.
-
Adio - KA 2
Es - Accel
Etnies - Some version of the Low Cut - The Jameson.
Emerica - Reynolds 1-3
Nike - Janoski low - the SOLAR CHECK has sold double what the Janoski has. Solar Check is sold in 5000 more stores in the US than the Janoski ever was. Famous Footwear/DSW/JcPenneys...ETC. It has been around almost as long as the Janoski too
Cons - Chucks
Huf - Classics
Vans - Era, Old Skool or Half Cab - ATWOOD is the same story as the SOLAR CHECK
Circa - AL 50
DC - Something from Journey's or PacSun
Another idea: Which shoes do you think shoulda been best sellers?
Sorry for poaching your list. I was too lazy to list all of them.

Are we really gonna let this gem go unnoticed?

Circa had that Muska shoe w/the stash pocket tongue. That had to be one of their best sellers. Or maybe it was Osiris???

The Dylan shoes actually sell out. The Classics hang around before they're put on sale for next to nothing in full size runs. And that's after they upped the production numbers on the Dylan shoes. I think the Classics sold quickly when they first dropped, and then everyone realized they were trash and now they're only purchased in small quantities by people who don't actually skate.

Not sure about other brands but I’m pretty sure the slip on is the best selling vans shoe. The black and white checkerboard one.

The focus has to be globe's best seller. I still see those shits.
Dollin's No Skool shoe for vans were fucking everywhere for years. Same with the Rowley XLIII.
When I think of etnies the Cinch and Arto's first shoe come to mind.
edit: the cx205 and cx105 were huge for circa. Not al50 huge but probably close.
second edit: the MJ-3 for Lakai would've been a heavy hitter for sure.

Always wanted a pair but the amount all canvas just wasn't working for me at all. Some of the colorways werewolf like trash for awhile too.
In regards to Vans I just want them to do another AA collection and I hope he sells more than Jordan. I love the blue slips from last summer (canvas aside).
