new colors on their web site and it actually looks good.

iPath went down the shitter when Timberland bought it.

dogerty · « **Reply #2 on:** July 26, 2008, 01:02:42 AM »

they've been in the shitter for a lot longer than that

They took that shoe cash and bought a port-a-potty...

Who owns them aside, the only thing that could save I-Path would be to throw out all of their shoe designs except for:

Cats,
Grasshoppers,
Crickets,
Yogi,
Reeds. (Sorry Gall... maybe this shoe can give half to Kenny, half to Freddy)

And stop making bullshit color combos. People want black on black leather grasshoppers, black with white stitches/white sole reeds, brown/gum yogis, black on black suede crickets, and some tan/gum hemp cats to chill in.

Oh, and who would you be chilling with in those cats? Not burnquist. Danny Renaud, Jack Sabback, Nate Jones circa 2001, Fred Gall, Kenny Reed. Fuck, get Joey Pepper on there and freshen it up just a little bit.

Man, I just miss I-Path. I haven't had a pair in ages. The Hoppers were just the best. It was a leather shoe that still just gripped like suede for some reason. The I-Path sole would last for less than the Vans waffle, but it was just great cause it was so soft and gripped just right.

It'd be rad if Vox could inherit the Hopper and cat, as well as the dudes mentioned above.

Totally agree.

I saw a current pair, a new hightop. The quality was the worst. Don't waste your time.

That sucks that their quality went down with the take over by timberland because I thought that some of them looked good.

skatemore,man · « **Reply #9 on:** July 26, 2008, 09:46:06 AM »

does anyone know where i could get a pair of hemp cats size 11? I had a pair in 02 and they were easily the most comfortable shoe i've ever worn.

Corey Quinn · « **Reply #10 on:** July 26, 2008, 10:07:49 AM »

after i ran into kenny reed in albany a couple weeks ago i remembered how sick his shoes were and coincidentally found a pair in my size for 30 bucks on ebay so i snagged them up quick (sorry lance couldn't resist)

sebastian toombs · « **Reply #11 on:** July 26, 2008, 10:36:38 AM »

they still make cats?

Prison Wallet · « **Reply #13 on:** July 26, 2008, 10:56:58 AM »

I passed up a pair of corduroy Cats at Ross in my size for $20. I was there to buy bed sheets and kept my eye on the ball. By the way Ross is the shit if you want good sheets--620 thread count Egyptian cotton for like $40.

scumalot · « **Reply #14 on:** July 26, 2008, 11:14:44 AM »

I think they screwed up when they latered Matt Field after all his years of backing them. the team is good but i wouldnt buy a pair.

I've got an olive/gum pair and damn them shits is comfy. My problem is I can't keep a pair of shoes without skating in them from time to time. Pretty much 3 ollies and you've got a hole. I can't keep Chuck Ts nice for the same reason.

All good homie, too bad we arent the same size, Him and I are and I got too many pairs.

Grasshoppers, black/tan all the way

danker peaches · « **Reply #20 on:** July 26, 2008, 01:57:36 PM »

I have the cats work in and wear when i am not skating and they feel good on my feet without all those crazy insoles that come with shoes today.
