Vans 4

Fuck the morons below me... "duuhh they is not rip". Here's a review of THIS SHOE, not just "Vans" in general, or some rapper associated with them. These shoes really made a difference in the way I skate, for the better. I would say they are some of the better skate shoes I've owned (better than my last Emericas, and definitely better than my old DC's and Globes). If you care about skating alone, then these shoes are great, good grip, etc. However, they do rip at a regular shoe's rate (i.e. no skate specific toe cap protection), which is why many little kids below me complain. "My D3's stay together for 12 months!" Well little boys, your plastic shoes and YOUR PERSONAL lack of tricks are what keep them from falling apart. I think it's much more important to have a comfortable, well made skate shoe, despite the rippage potential. As for Josebeaver, maybe you ought to shop for some flashy high heels with jewels around the strap, that might catch your feminine eye... and while you're at it, try out some bright pink griptape...way to stand out with color rather skateboard skills.
