As someone else already mentioned, the Emerica Ellingtons were some of my favorites. I had 3 pairs of them, and as soon as the 2's came out, I got a pair of those, and they just didn't look, feel, or skate as good as the first ones

eS Theory 1.5's. The only mid top shoes I ever cared for. They didn't last for very long, but they were comfortable as hell, and they looked great to me.

Whatever these DC's are called. I had a couple pairs, and they skated extremely well, and were insanely comfortable. I had them in all black suede with red and white accents

The And my all time favorite shoe that I miss dearly. The Etnies Arto.

I know this shoe isn't as nearly out of reach as most of the shoes posted on here, but I've had a hard time filling this void.
check your local marshall's, my friend found 4 pairs in assorted colors there one time. same with anyone looking for dylans. i found black/white canvas, and black/gum waxed canvas ones in my size there.

Never been much of a fan of skating the shoes, but I've always loved how clean these Bruins looked.  I even had an opportunity when they came out to get it for a discount, but I passed on it thinking I'd get back to it later.  Classic shoe that got away story, and I've been lurking on ebay ever since.

one of the illest colorways for a shoe that's ever been made

Herman G6 vulcs of very similar color coming out this spring, I think.

I still have those but in this colorway... One of my favorite colorways ever too!



They arent even that skated but the sole was gone too fast! Gone bald and thin in weeks and no grip whatsoever, it was strange because i had the herman 2 that had the same sole and lasted a while... Maybe i'll clean them and just chill in them.

^yeah, that`s one shoe i would really love to have again! BUT more specifically a first run of the G CODE! had two pairs of them when they first came out and skated a couple over the following years. the newer g codes didn`t even come close to the first run of them. different fit, lot bulkier and not as when they first came out!

I have a pair that I only skated a few times in the black/gum colorway... To be honest, I didn't really think they skated all that great. The rubber/plastic underlay under the suede seemed to not actually be attached to each other making them feel weird and very, very stiff. I was actually pretty disappointed in them, but maybe I should have another go at skating them? Definitely not a shoe that felt good out of the box.

Oh, they were absolutely stiff as fuck. But I typically wear my shoes around for non-skating for up to a couple months before ever skating them. It definitely took several sessions, but they were literally indestructible afterwards. Similar feel to the Emerica Provosts, which I skate now. Board feel, EXCELLENT cushioning, simplicity, and the most indestructible vulc I've ever seen make this by far the best shoe in recent memory.
