im pretty sure they dont make czar any more and taj mihelic is the model but i dont think that is how his name is spelt. oh come to think of it the name of taj shoes are called truma or sumthing like that.

Aren't they a little heavy?
I've got globes/etnies plus other cool skate shoes. That makes me cool.

And very flexy :lol:

Last time i rode, i used my huge uggboots, suprisingly they were awesome to ride with - it stuck to the pedal like the chocolate around a fat kids face. but that was to the pie shop, so i dunno what it'd be like on the trail..

at the moment i'm using the old school airwalks, they are falling apart and i've used them to death, so perhaps time for some newies.

i got the etnie tramus but ride in my shimano dx shoes for the ol flats. however they are ugly bastards. if you want nice, cheap, functional shoes go the tramaus. only problem is that the inside part of the upper part of the shoe falls to pieces sooo quickly. if your a crank rubber.

im with notobe go the dunlop volleys!
they stick to the pedals like fly to poo thanks to the rubbery sole, weigh shit all, look real oldschool (goes with my bike nicely), only downsides to them are mine are mainly white, so they get dirty if riding through mud or any shitty surface and they do flex a little but only if you have your foot in a bad position on the pedals.

Circa thomas limited edition. not made any more, but oh so comfy. Now I use Osiris or Etnies, if I can get a pair that fit (too bloody narrow!!!)

Mmm, I've got a set of those sitting in the cupboard, barely wore them. I think they're a little tight but maybe they're worth a try.

Vans XL2's... anything with the waffle pattern is sick though these are nearly as good as Intense Shoes. My second choice.

TnT pride!

I've got black/neon pink TnT's - and I plan to buy another pair the same in a couple of months when these are buggered - I've had them for a fair while now.
I wear them everywhere, bike, walking, going out....And they flat out rule. Grip on the pedals is just sick and the pink stripe is just pimpin' :)

guys, i went to a bunch of skate shops about 2 weeks ago lookinfor TnT's to replace my current ones, they are no longer produced...damn fashion moving on.

floody
19-06-2004, 02:44 PM
TnT's still being produced as far as I knew?? Vans still sell them off the website and every skate shop down here has a stack of them in stock.....
Jeez I better check it out, if they are OOP I better stock up on black/pink ones and corner the market :D

speaking of shoes how funny was it when that guy at ballarat lost his shoe on the chicken line today. i wonder what sort of shoe it was. i dont think you should ride in them. he became a barefoot bushman. :lol:

VANS KNU SKOOLS... The best shoes I have ever purchased, had the waffle sole and looked the shit. For some reason vans stopped producing them, they were hella popular.
They still sell like every old school shoe they have produced but finding a pair of knu skools is very hard. They sometimes come up for sale on the german ebay. And are pretty expensive.
I have since resorted to etnies. The Mike escamilla signatures "rooftops" were alright, but I think the new model ones arent as good.

i use a $20 pair of Wannabe Scatie Shoes from Big-W, there the best shoe i have ridden with over the times, way better than Human, Stiffer than globes and i haven't really tried anything out.


But for $18 to be exact there awesome deal, the biggest size is 10.

Go to Big-W and try find them.

I have a pair of colorados because the last pair I had lasted 3 years of trail abuse and still had soles chunkier and grippier than a car tyre, sadly the leather started to disintegrate. My current ones were skimped on the treads though and are sadly lacking, so I am in the market once again. The best ones I've seen are some swanky suede ones in target. They had heaps good grips. They didn't have any big enough for my feet though :(

It's shit where colorado have gone now, far less functional than they used to be, and the treads are pathetic. oh well, I can still use my current pair for work.
