I really wish that someone would bring this shoe back, it was really one of the better shoes made during that time period. It was not bulky, had hidden lace loops (3 lace options total), hidden airbags with a nicely cushioned midsole, a toe bump that help reduce abrasion without getting in the way, rubber underlayers all throughout the toe box and ollie areas, and it came in an assortment of great colorways. If I had to skate one shoe for the rest of my life, it'd probably be this one. Why the Koston 3 did much better than this model, I'll have no idea.
I'm just keeing my fingers crossed now that the runner-inspired skate shoes are beginning to make a comeback (which I support).
