patches Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 The pro's are cool, but im just looking for a casual shoe, not for riding; the stiffness wont help, and the black and white wont work with jean pant. WHAT!!! buying 5.10's and not using them to ride... get.out.of.here.now! hahaha! but seriously... there are way cheaper casual shoe options at your local mall... or is that it... you want stealth rubber to help you stay on your feet in in the aisles of PnP while the staff are washing the floors? Besides work (where I wear veldskoens, cos I'm cool like that)... I basically only wear 2 brands of shoes. FiveTens - for the bike (2 pairs: barron & sam hill)Macbeths - for casual (6 pairs: 3 manchester, 2 eliot, 1 langley... in various colour options) Macbeths are the shoes of rockstars! AFI, Foo Fighters, Angels & Airwaves.. etc etc. Manchesterhttp://www.proskater.ru/images/bimages/44042.jpg Eliots http://www.comparestoreprices.co.uk/images/ma/macbeth-eliot-premium-suede-shoe.jpg Langley http://www.surfstitch.com/product_images/MMF10022.003BLK-MACBETH-1.JPG
patches Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Sorry for the hijack Wes... I just couldn't watch a pair of FiveTens enslaved to a life without riding
wesley_r Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 Lol... I'm a Vans man all the way (currently for riding too)...
The Ghost Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 And where do you get them Eliots, and at what price? Cheaper normally means less comfort.
patches Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 And where do you get them Eliots, and at what price? Cheaper normally means less comfort. I get most of my Macbeths at the Revolution shop on Cresta. I think sidewalk surfer in Fourways mall also sells them Normal price for Eliots is approx R500., but often they're on sale and get marked down to R300 or less. as for comfort... I find them great. I often even wear them without socks haha That revolution store in cresta also has all the oldschool adidas sneakers kinda like these: http://6.kicksonfire.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/adidas-skate-4.jpg The Ghost 1
wesley_r Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 My favourite sneakers ever... need to start hunting for a new pair
