Jeremy Wray just posted samples of some Adios that were modeled after Dukes, never released but very "golden era". Fat laces and all.

I was thinking what other shoe did I wish I had more of, that I just could not get, and I think the answer is the Es Accel shoe, just the plain or OG version, not the slim or vulc or anything else, in the simple colours like this.

Sorry, posting too much again, but the one other shoe I recall that everyone was wanting back was the Vans Half Cab in tan.

There is even a specific instagram account or two dedicated to the Half Cab, along with pics and rants, which in total is pretty interesting, to me at least.

Nope. Not even the right colorway. Jovante skated the all yellow ones.

Oh well. Although maybe if we keep talking about this one of these times you'll spell Jovantae correctly.

Duuuude I had the V2s and you're right, one of the most indestructible shoes I've ever skated. I felt invincible.

The accel and the dunk are my favorite shoes to skate in of all time. Nothing like them that I’ve experienced.

Emerica templetons were a gem too. I had black/pink ones if I recall. First shoe I had when my foot outgrew kids sizes.

Money is the Lakai Soca. Simple, not too puffy (for the time), lots of heel and achilles support.

Had a pair of the Black / White ones but the red / grey ones were the shit:


Everyone was wearing the Dr T shoe for a bit especially after In Bloom came out:

 I miss when skate shoes had more padding in them. You just feel so much safer with a puffier tongue and padded ankle area. I would be kinda hyped to see some prod 2 retros or something

Emerica Herman 2

This was my roommates  favourite shoe from back in the day. A couple years ago I was at a thrift shop and found a pair of size 7s in this colour way for $8. I bought them and we displayed them on the mantle until his girlfriend moved in and I moved out. Beautiful lines, they really don't make shoes like that anymore.
 
My pick would be Reynolds 2 grey/white, black/white with the black midsole hit.

C1rca had some nice looking shoes that reflected each team rider's personality, like Muska or JT's shoes. The MA and AL ones are particularly nice.
