lakai mariano (http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7245646/c/12654.html)

they aren't bulky, but not exactly vulacanized, they have nice boardfeel, they are comfortable, the grip is great, the toe cap is amazing, i've skated the shoes for over a month and i'll i've done is rip a few stiches.. just the only downside is the lack of colorways. i dont care though.

The rounded toe doesn't make a difference?

I like accels and fallen chiefs.

Not at all, you get used to it real fast. And it isn't that rounded. At first I thought they were a little weird, but they really are an amazing shoe.

Skatewise, no skools, rowley squares, and rey 3's are amazing.

But if im looking just for an all around good shoe, then sheckler etnies, theyre the shit.

Well I superglue the seems but no it doesn't really. It lasts as long or longer as most skate shoes but skaters way better than most.

Right now i'm loving my eS theorys but i've had them for two big sessions and they're almost dead.

Manchesters are another one of Lakai's finest. But then again Lakai has so many amazing shoes. Mj-3, Carroll 4 and Howard 4 are both to die for. (joygasm)

Right now i'm really loving my eS theories. i got them low for 30 bucks on active. They skate amazing but rip fast but then again i average 3 hours of nonstop skating everyday after school. so no biggy.

Not crazy about Emerica. I got a free pair of Reynolds' The Boss and they skate OKAY but are like f*cking boots!

I'd love to try some Reynolds 3 and KSL Dos though.

Good old Saviers! Just bought me a pair of Cornell's the other day, found a site that still has loads left! Last time I had any luck finding a pair was about 2 years ago, so all good I reckon. :-41:

Yeah they look good, but probably the same as all the other vulcanized shoe. Only difference is Appleyard - actually wearing a vulc shoe :O

Reyonlds 3s are honestly the most comfortable shoes I have ever skated.
I only skate vulcanized shoes now. I can't stand not feeling the board.

When I wear non vulcanized shoes, I feel like I'm wearing wooden planks on the bottom of my feet. Vulcanized shoes make me feel like I'm skating in socks. Socks with extra protection.

With a little super glue on the ollie area and on the laces, my last pair of Reynolds 3s lasted a good 5 months, at least. The only reason I stopped skating them is because... well, I got tired of looking at the same shoes. So I gave them to my neighbor because the shoes he was skating were trashed.

My favorite shoes so far are etnies artos. The grip has lasted longer on them than most of my other shoes. Second place would have to be fallen troopers though.

They stand for two totally different things. Teams are totally different but the shoes are more or less the same. Same materials different designs, but then again most shoes are influenced and based off of those old vans, and shiz. Most vulcanized shoes are kinda the same. I can't tell the difference from eS square one to the Emerica Reynolds 3 to the Fallen Ripper. I love vulcanized shoes but they're all the same lol.
