I have a pair of Etnies Switch. Pretty decent shoe. Lasted me about 5 months of constant skating. But I don't exactly know, they're my first pair of skate shoes. I'm pretty sure that my next pair of shoes will be either Fallen Rivals or a pair of ES. That's really the only ones that I hear people say good things about.

éS Accels, Nike SB Dunks.
NIKE sb
05-02-2005, 03:31 AM
man i gotta say that nike sb dunks and the p-rods are the best for skating. if you like durability and superior board feel i suggest you buy a pair. the only con is that they are expensive.

i wouldnt buy a pair of p-rods. sorry but he SOLD OUT. U know, i didnt mind him moving to nike, and i tolerated his move to shitty ass silvers... but then he left fourstar and girl. Hes on mountain dew now! he's supposedly on plan b (no complaints about Plan B.)! I cant support that guy any longer even though he's like, a freakin machine on a skateboard.
Im stickin' to the SB Dunks and the Air Classic SBs.

WHAT THE HELL??? i didnt even know he skated for freakin mountain dew, that is mega gay. he isturning into a tony hawk or bam character. not saying that i dont like either of them its just they sold out for the money. freakin weird stuff there man.
i gotta say other than the prods are the nike sb dunks hi/lo and the sb classic in mocha and chino. (thats what im rockin right now) but the roswell raygun dunks are my all-time favorite.

Hey dont be hatin on Mountain Dew. I'm flowed by them. But it was sorta like a package deal. If i did good in a comp(i placed 2nd) then I got sponsored by my shop and flowed by MD. But it is kinda gay. But hey, free drinks.

Accels, oh ya! They rip up pretty badly but they're cheap and good looking.

05-27-2005, 01:26 PM
hmm...4 me, i think it depends. in my opinion, vans has the best grip, dvs 4 durability, and of course dc 4 style...overall i picked vans XL2 (at least 4 now...)
NitrousX
05-27-2005, 04:18 PM
Well I've only skated a pair of Etnies switch and a pair of Etnies Arto Saaris...I'd say the Arto Saari's have much better board feel and flexability. But they both wear down pretty fast. Or maybe it's just me.

Hahahahha, dude, you make me smile.
Number one: Look into the space bar.
Number two: Try some P-Rods.
Number three: Nike's were some of the original skate shoes... Vans, Airwalks, and NIKE.

When was the last time you had Nikes?
Whatever you must do, use the space bar.

i cant use the space bar that good, i use nikes 4 other sports thanskateboarding such as track, football, basketball, ect.

are nike's really that good?
Authentic
06-04-2005, 08:41 AM
Nikes are cool, Im really into these Milan DVS' cause the whole shoe is mesh other then the tip back and soles. The mesh kinda like molds to your foot and the comfort is awesome. Oh ya nice grip too
thechemicalguru
06-04-2005, 12:18 PM
i would have to say es accelerate there sooo cool
i seen some skaters on concrete wave that were trying out the more athletic sport shoes e.g nike, addidas and rebok i think it was and compared to the well know skate makes eg. vans they were a bile of crap but out of the 3 athlectic makes nike were the best. but this was like last year so they might have improved they models
