I really want those rapidwelds but their price makes me cringe. I feel like I'm just throwing money away if I pay over $55 for a shoe.
I just wanna know why they tried to make the upper so durable when they're just gonna put it on the same flimsy vulc sole they've been using since the 60's. If your sole blows out in half the time as the upper then what's the point? Even Nike will give you more bang for your buck at $90
So weird that they haven't upgraded their sole yet... Imagine some old skool pros with some durable Adidas/Nike material in their waffle pattern on the bottom. I'd pay $70+ for that easy.
Maybe the shit sole is why Vans skate so good though? They sell so many shoes, make so much money, put a ton of money (probably) into developing this Rapidweld technology. Theres gotta be a reason they don't change the sole
