Welcome to my Shoe reviews!
Kastel Ronnie Bertino Pro model shoe
I used these shoes for about 2 months and they lasted ok. The sole is quite good, mostly grippy gum rubber, black rubber for heel and toe
area, and white rubber for a border around the sole. These shoes are really comfortable when you first get them but after walking and
standing in them for along time the insole gets all squashed quickly. Then becoming a bit uncomfortable. There's ollie protection on the side of
the shoe which makes it last long. There's also triple stiching so the shoe doesn't come apart easily. The sole wears down pretty quick
which causes the shoe to bend upwards a bit. Overall I think these shoes are ok.
Globe Double O
These shoes are ok since they aren't too expensive. They only have double stiching so they came apart pretty quickly. I had to whip
out the Shoe Goo pretty quickly with these shoes. The sole of the shoe is all grippy gum rubber, and this shoe is pretty grippy. The
sole of this shoe is also really long lasting. For shock absorbancy this shoe isn't too good. When you feel the shock, you feel
the shock. These shoes aren't too bad.
Es Ethalon
These are super duper comfy shoes. The insoles are nice and thick, they have a EVA
arch support and Sorbothane heel pad. They're made of leather so they last a real long time. They also have quadruple stiching which
contributes to the how these shoes last long. The have a 400 NBS rubber outsole which last four times longer then other soles.
A T.P.U. ollie pad under the leather for a longer lasting shoe. The leather is 1.8 to 2.2 mm so it already last long.
Osiris Dave Mayhew
Now as you have probably already heard, Osiris' are the most comfortable kind of shoes you can get. That is true without a doubt. I got these shoes about over a week ago. I must say they are the most cushiony and comfortable skate shoes I've ever had. These shoes sport 3 layers of suede, an air pocket in the sole, sticky gum rubber soles, rubber lace loops, a loop on the back for easy installation, a really big fat thick tongue, and tongue straps. These are the best features about the shoes. Oh, they are also pretty light. The downside, it wears out fast. I've only skated them a couple not so hard sessions. The suede is gonna start to rip soon (first layer). The sole wears down fast, they're starting to get angled from walking. But overall these shoes are good, the downsides aren't too bad compared to all the good in them. These shoes rock. Shoe Goo should hold them together pretty well. I just Goo'd mine this morning and I'll go skate them later to check it out. *I got a different pair of shoes cause they were defected. I'm not sure if it's like that with all Osiris's. E-mail me about your pair of Osiris's*
Axion Kareem Campbell
These are my newest pair of shoes. These are the one's I got instead of my Osiris's. These shoes are so far so good. They have a rubber toe cap, that is double stiched onto the shoe. There's nubuck lace loops with holes in them if you wanna put them through holes. Also they have these 'lil tongue straps that are in a different spot then the usual ones, near the top. This shoe has an air pocket in it for good shock absorbtion. Extra comfy insole, at the arch there are two holes for breatheability. These shoes are really comfortable and look like they'll last a long time. They have a sticky gum rubber sole. The downside, they take awhile to break in. I'm still not too used to skating in them. But I've only skated in them about 8 times or so. Axion's are good shoes.
DC Danny Way's
DC makes the SWEETEST shoes. If you get Danny Way 3 or 4, you WILL NOT be dissapointed. These shoes will last 3-4 monthes of GOOD, HARD skating. Trust me I know. They look nice, feel nice, but the price isnt all to nice. They are pretty expensive becasue Danny's name is on them. But the souls are gummy yet durable, the ollie pad is durrable, the laces are good and even have special eyelets so they stay tight. My only complaint is that the stitching wears off around the soul and all the strings stick out around it. The shoe doesnt fall apart or anything, but it looks like ass. I'd give these shoes a 4/5 on the dies hard skater shoe guide. Thanks-Mike Hurren
~NEW~DVS Trooper
these shoes kick a$$! I've had these shoes for almost 3 months and they haven't even started ripping yet. They have a nice huge ollie pad that is triple stitched. The sole is awesome. The only thing that rips on these shoes is the laces because they don't have rubber loop holes.overall these are the best skate shoes I've ever had.They are 4 times as good as my old etnies.
