Also, what is your dream shoe? My brother needs a few answers and opinions in order to do his article based on skateboarding shoes for English. He forgot to interview some of his friends at school and just needs some last minute opinions.
Thank you so much!

My boyfriend skates and he seems to really like Lakai.
Unfortunately, I can’t provide any useful information along with that.

I’m in love with my DCs.
They are super comfortable and have a pretty good grip.
Plus, they haven’t worn out as quickly as some of my others.

I don’t skate much, but I like my Airwalks.

I only buy Circa. All of my DCs have fallen apart far too quickly. Vans are alright, it depends on what kind style you get. The classic low-top lace ups are tough, but might not be the best for skating. Circa, in my opinion, makes some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They last forever, and the grip is nice. The only downside is that they are usually a little pricier than other shoes, but they are great shoes to have.

vans are good and airwalks are kind of just the generic version of vans though I find their heels wear out quicker than van’s . . .at least for me, maybe I’m just a chronic heel dragger.

Vans are super lightweight, and the waffle sole has a good grip. My favorite ones have to be Emerica’s, they are comfortable and durable, they are kind of like Etnies. Adio’s are also good, professional skaters like Tony Hawk, Bam Margera, Shaun White, and Jeremy Wray use them, that’s got to count for something doesn’t it?

Vans all the way. I’ve told my relatives to bury me in a pair, no joke.
