I don't understand the hate for all these ridiculous shoes. If I rode for a company that had a shoe in its line that I really liked to skate, as apposed to making a good skate shoe and make mediocre money of its sales because of all the competition. I would skate the team shoe that I really liked and design a shoe that would make shit loads of money off of stupid hipster, sneakerhead, style fiends, fucks. I would then be making money and living comfortably while skating a shoe that wasn't super gay. The argument would be why would you put your name on, and represent something that looks stupid and non skatable, well you all would do it to if you had the opportunity.
