I'd also like to addon to my SWYD collection and get these:

(It's a shrunken size because it's NSFW, has naked women on it)

What do you like leatherwise? Looks like you like suede. Black, white? You like colors? Browns, yellows, reds, blues? I like either laid back, or loud in your face. I like slick or grease leather, but suede is okay.. usually fades bad. What kind of soul you like? I like the DC's pleated kind (4 up).. but the smooth sides like right above are cool too.

I like DVS.. I have skated Lakai, Globe (bad habit of the bottoms falling off), Duffs, Etnies (love these shoes!) Airwalks (way back in the day!!), ... can't think of others.. DC's, never had em, everyone wears em which to me is not an attractive factor in shoes.. I like to be original in what I wear stupid but whatever.. one of a kind

Very short lived, I did it before I had a couple of accidents. I snowboarded for a bit but couldn't keep taking the impacts on my knees.

When they put their paws on the fence, it means take them from the rear.

I'm a fan of mostly suede, leather does not appeal to me. I like simple designs, but not bland. Blacks, grey's and whites for me. Souls doesn't matter much to me.

I skated and biked with DC's, they are the most comfortable i've owned, however in the last few years, they haven't had any lines that I liked up until recently.

DVS and Globe are my two favorites. We have a eS store in our area and they always have their shoes buy 1 get 1 free, so I may stop in and check them out.

They do actually. I believe Backcountry has some. If anything, I wished Globe still made Chet IV's.




It was the most comfortable shoe I've ever wore. Held up well during skating; but even better during bmx.
