well i found the fattys i wanted, i got these ES accel TT's from atlas skateshop on a sale, the owner hooked it up with two mags and gourmet cheese wax from oakland, so i got a discontinued pair of shoes because they fit tight enough at a 14 for me the wear. anybody skate these? i think they are pre bankrupt models.

I wonder if those Dill's had good grip? I skated in his first pro model.

Grip felt so bald, not to mention looks horrible.




No, I had those exact shoes. The grip was really shallow and I think it was made up of dvs lettering. Wore through really quickly. These may have been the last Dvs I bought. Pure trash, but quite pretty. The sheffey 2 before it was gold though.

Tate - yeah, the grip on those Dill is terrible. Digging them out and skating them was more of a novelty than anything. The grip is terrible and the fit/feel is like taping throw pillows around my feet.

Rad. Thanks Art! I know this might sound like minutiae, but would you say the fit/sizing felt closer to Silas SLR or Adi-Ease?

man, the SLR was such a great fitting shoe... let it join the OG campus vulc, Ronan, Lucas Pro, and Lucas ADV in the land of rad but dropped shoes by adidas.

SLR was probably one of the most enjoyable shoes I have skated. People were tweaked over the heel.

Couldn't agree more, the SLR is a great shoe in all regards - fit, looks, durability. And people stressed about that heel but ironically it's probably one of the most stable shoes you could skate in.

update on my post: these accel tt's are baller, they look badass, i'm going to go ahead and get the accel og after this. my favorite part is that they don't have any big logo on them besides the tongue, back part thats covered by pants, or just the little one on the side of the sole, love that shit.

I quite like these. They remind of this era of skate shoes a lot and I have a soft spot for them. Around the time vita came out and everyone was wondering if Savier was Nike or not.

Skated in these Dylan all weekend. Not really a fan of HUF shoes in general and I'm too old to care about the fashion politics that come with wearing these, but they are good skate shoes. Fit is close/tight, sole has a lot of grip, and the heel lock is a vice. Crazy durable. I feel like I hammered these things this weekend and they barely show any wear. If any drawbacks, the leather is stiff (to be expected) and the sole feels a little heavy.

Upon closer inspection my Dylan 10.5 blacks are a bit different from those. Still leather but the cupsole is just white and I don't think there's any brown on them at all. Well. I know there's not. Anyways, anyone with a 10.5 wanna trade or buy em (half price what I paid sound fair I barely wore em)?

my blazer gt is about to be destroyed, so i bought these off a friend for dirt cheap who won them at a contest


not too hyped on the nyjah names on it, but i think it resembles a lot the dc tonik s that i skated a couple of pairs of.
so i guess it will be good to skate.

They're some page or two back with my other shoes. Haven't worn em since that picture was taken. But yeah they're black leather with an all fucking white sole (no brown) and it apears that fucking they seem a little more "padded" then the ones pictured. Especially around the heel. Obviously if you ended up finding that you want them I will take more pictures.

I'm wearing mine at the office right now. I really like the dark blue beaded leather look, but the white outsole makes them look too casual. Blue or gum would have been better. I'm not sure I'll ever skate mine. I don't like the feel of leather flicking through griptape.

This is a big turn off for me. I can't be arsed to break in shoes anymore. They should be skatable out of the box these days.

Does the metal plate not make this shoe really rigid?

Got back to wearing the colorful swoosh Dunks even though I swear the right was too big maybe my foot grew though.


Is it perforated? cause that seems to be the only one that was released in black leather/white sole.
