The pinnacle of evolution...[close]
Shoes are becoming more functional with every coming season.Simple designs with more innovative materials. Finding ways to maximize boardfeel,support and durability.I always see that unwavering nostalgia for shoes of yore, but I remember vividly how poorly made most were.Icy soles, hard materials and awkward colorways. All those things still happen but at least it's less frequent.Shoes like the 1/2 cab,superstar,chuck taylor,dunk,blazer,sk8 hi,era will always be around. They're timeless and functional. The companies keep tinkering with them and are getting closer to making them better.And with all the new insole companies it's easy to upgrade any shoe.
Not quite.
The End

I would still skate those Kirchart 2s.I remember wanting Tosh's Emerica shoes when they came out.
There needs to be more skate shoes that use straps instead of laces. DC made a pair about 10 years ago that were ugly as hell (like most of their shoes) and one of the Team Handsome doods had some regular dress shoes made, but a decent looking pair of laceless skate shoes is yet to happen. Think about it: no laces to rip in the first place. Seems like a no-brainer.

accels were such good shoes
how about those Nikes from Back to the Future 2?
Theres a surf shop near my house that hasnt gotten any new inventory for 10 years. Theyre still fully stocked with D3s, Koston 1s, Old ass accels, Stevies DC shoe,Lakai SOTYs,etc.
Look I'm not selling anything that doesn't have my jizz on it. I don't care how much is offered.
I wish Emerica would bring these back.
Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year
