dc crew s best skate shoe ever

Been awhile since I’ve done a shoe review. Mainly because it’s been awhile since I’ve been so impressed with a shoe. This is perhaps the best shoe I’ve ever had. Seriously. My feet never hurt, I skated great in them, the flick was great, good grip, everything. My only complaint is the stitching on the side of the foot will blow out pretty quick. Since this is the second pair I’ve had in a row though I knew to super glue the stitching. These are the first shoes in years to last me almost two months and I skated a ton in them. They are even comfy to walk in. So congrats DC for making such a good shoe and not putting your logo all over it like most of your mall shoes.DC shoes

Fallen is making some of the best shoes out there in my opinion. Some of the soles are a bit thick, but this shoe, wow, this shoe is basically perfect. My only complaint about these shoes is the huge logo. That’s not really a complaint, it’s just me being overly picky. I guess the lace saver ripped away after awhile, but that didn’t really bother me too much. I wasn’t able to tre flip lipslide huge handrails either. Not sure what’s up with that since these were the Billy Marks shoes and all, but maybe I should have actually tried it. Who knows, maybe it would happen.Fallen Footwear

eS – Square One

goodRating: ★★★★½ STYLERating: ★★★★☆ COMFORTRating: ★★★★☆ BOARD FEELRating: ★★★☆☆ DURABILITYRating: ★★★★☆ OVERALLI’m not sure exactly how many pairs of this shoe I’ve had, but it’s a good one, and I enjoy skating them.  I’m pretty picky with the tongue on shoes and this shoe easily has the best tongue of any shoe I’ve ever skated.  It’s thin, but responsive and protects the top of your foot.  Style wise this shoe is a hit obviously considering it’s basically a vulcanized version of the ever popular Accel.  As with most Sole Tech shoes the Square One is super comfy.  The sole packs out and feels like paper after a few weeks and the ollie area will sometimes blow out.  The ollie area can be shoe goo’d, but still, why not have the both layers of suede go all the way into the sole instead of ending where the layers meet.  Oh well, over all I think it’s one of the best shoes out there.eS Footwear

Supra – Sport (Tom Penny) review

Posted in Product Review, Shoe Reviews on July 30th, 2008 by corpo

sportyRating: ★★★★½ STYLERating: ★★★★☆ COMFORTRating: ★★★½☆ BOARD FEELRating: ☆☆☆☆☆ DURABILITYRating: ★★☆☆☆ OVERALLHere is the first of many shoe reviews I’m going to do on this site. I blow through shoes like crazy. Maybe it’s because you tear up shoes more when you never actually land tricks? Wow I never thought of that before. Anyways, the first shoe up for review is the Supra – Sport. Stylee shoe indeed although my photo of them makes them look like crap. Fake vulcanized sole, but some weird type of cupsole that feels close enough to a vulcanized to consider skating. The first day out on these shoes spelled the end of them. I blew through the ollie area in one game of SKATE causing my toes to stick out. It sucked!sportySupra Footwear
