What are/were your favourite shoes for riding?
« on: March 10, 2022, 08:20:52 PM »
Let's hear your favourites, whether they still make them or not.


I had some airwalks that fit really nice back in the day, loved those.


Tried 510 for flatland since I had them for downhill, but the soles were too soft to last. The reinforced sides were really nice though.


Using these flat bottom Uggs recently and they were good at first but now they stress the side of my foot and cause pain.


My all time fav were these Adidas I had, not sure the model but I think they were "superstar" or some that look just like it.


Lets hear yours!

Been digging the Half Cabs again with their new cushioning. Super good

Never tried vans, but I think I'll give them a go this year. It's cool that you can customize your shoes on their site

Tried other brands, but always go back to grippier Vans Sk8-Hi, (with extra In-soles) for my skinny pegs!

I recommend custom vans. Sk8 high comfy cush is my favorite. You can even have your  embroidered on the heels ...

So I had some custom Vans made, size 11.5 and I can't even get my foot in them! I called over a friend who wears size 11 and he couldn't get his foot in either!
Luckily they said I can send them back for a full refund, minus the return shipping.

It's unfortunate cause I had them embroidered and everything, left shoe said "front wheel" and right shoe said "back wheel" cause that's how I tend to ride!

The search continues..
