Just discuss anything about skate shoes. Say which ones you like, which you don't. Post pics etc.

i like vulcanized ones mostly especially vans.  i REALLY dont like fallen and DVS bro company and shoes with print on them.   any kind of cheetah print or skull print or anything always looks wack besides maybe plaid or something in a few cases.  it sucks how lakai and DVS still put out shoes like the 'contra' and all that in big white leathr colorways with air bubbles and all just to appeal to the kid in billabong shorts at the local zumies.   they should just make a bunch of good styles like the manchesters and stuff instead so that skateboarders have more options......some of that didnt make sense i dont knwo

I like etnies Sal 23, éS SLB, éS Creagers, DVS Getz I, DVS Stealth, éS Koston 1 and 3, Axion Guy Mariano, etnies Arto, etnies Cyprus, DVS Berra 3, DC Lynx (the original iteration with that PAL AB 2000 whatever shit it was toecap), DuFFs KCK...there's more but most every skate shoe out there is a copy of Nike, Adidas or Puma to begin with.

bought a pair of black and white nike blazers today.  first day skating seemed pretty good.

They're not the bestlooking shoe, I bought them because they were on sale, but they skated amazing and lasted like 3-4 months... I really, really liked 'em... I dont care what's trendy or what brands not to wear, If I find something that feels good I'll buy it

i'm skating the nike classics right now and i love them, i had adidus capuses and they are the best shoes i have ever had hands down, the nike blazers were good, i liked my tnt2's considering they're one of htrre/four vulc shoes i can skate, my supra ellingtons were amazing even though the suede started to wear down after the third day- it took a month more to kill them, i liked the emerica bosses i had, i loved the grasshoppers, i loved the superskates, i loved the estillo tres, and i liked my nike team editons a lot

I have two pairs of Bam's Darklight shoe, and I love them, despite how regular that seems. It's the greatest shoe I've ever skated, and I will most definitely invest in a third and fourth pair, just as long as they arent the black and purple ones that have the heartagram on the back.

anyone else trade shoes around with bros? someone gave me the vox troopers, and they were by far the worst feeling shoe I had ever put on but now I love them. other than those all other shoes I currently have in my possesion really make my feet hurt, except these old dc's. another friend gave me his nikes and they reallllly hurt my feet, the zoom tres and 6.0s. whenever I bought nikes they were super comfortable so maybe his feet are just fucked. nikes, supras, ipath, these old pairs of pumas someone had and now vox are the best for me so far.  the last shoes I actually paid new were reeboks back in may (35$) and I was super dissapointed, to the point that I stopped buying shoes...ramble ramble

i had half cabs that i traded to a friend who had reynolds three samples before they came out so i traded those to him. its the only thing i can now think of that i regret. i skated those for about two weeks and my friend josh who owns the shop traded me his old schools for the reynolds threes because the stitching was cutting up his toe. in the end it worked out for ll of us but damn that shoe was by far the worst shoe i ever owned and i had the kalis truths before

Vox are all I skate these days.  My brother is on flow and we both get free shoes all the time, the vox rep is cool about it.  I usually skate the drehobles in black.  pretty sick shoes.  skated the troopers once but I bought a half size too big and they felt too wierd after a while.

skated dekline sham (?) mids for a while before that.  good shoes.  kind of ugly though.
