Vans for flats. You can design your own now on their websight! For clips I am wearing AXO. My feet feel alot more comfortable than they do in the more typical road/mountian bike style shoe.

No question, Vans.

BITD it was vision, airwalk and vans. now its only vans.
i used to rock the more sk8 oriented ones, but just found a renewed love for the "old school" line. i just got a pair of hosoi high tops.... SWEET

hmmmm let me think for a minute,
Old or new????

Vans for show, Five Tens for go!
NOTHING can beat 5-10's for grip!

Vans hi-tops. I just ordered a new pair of black and white checkered ones earlier today on their website. I have a little rip in my blue ones that I have now that is getting a little bigger as the days go by, so I got some new ones coming. I did have some Nike's for a few years years ago, but they wore out and I went back to Vans (which I had all along anyway).

Vans and flat pedal for BMX riding and racing. Nike & SPD for road and mountain. Can't clip in for BMX.
JG

vans and also chuck taylors bitd..

No damn clips that's for sure. Van's or Airwalkks. or N.S.S. shoes.

Vans or airwalks

Barefooted!! No wonder why my feet are ****ed up!!

Roos or vision sometimes my chucks

Hi Top VANS !!! Not the repops either. The real deal !!! I'd like to be buried with them on !!!

I wore Airwalk Volocity series shoes. I had a pair of the Dyno's that were like Vans.

My new grips

Dig the colors Pauly!

Lotek Troop

Vans for riding/working and all around posing

DINGO

Nike Dunks recently, the skateboard version. REAL comfy. Got some Orchid Hex shoes in black too.

I wear Timberlands... "Whats up Dog!"

Swede on top too.

Never know if your gonna need to kick some ...



I wore chucks bitd and then Vans picked me up for a while. They were great.

Then I got on the vision street wear kick. (the lace up hightops with the velcro on the top were my fav's)

Now, whatever is cheap and feels good. usually low tops, though I would recommend high tops to newbies, it hurts to crack your ankle on the cranks.

Course if I really want to pimp I wear these:

OLD SCHOOL VANS OR HIGHTOP VISION STREET WEAR

first it was slip on Van, then came laced with 2 tone. We used to checker board the sides with colored electric tape before they ever made them like that. That idea came for the surfer type folders we used to make living in Hawaii for school. That was around 81-82, 82-83. I was in 7th and 8th grade. Then from 83-85 it was the Thom McAnn Jox Jag bmx shoes. 85-87 it was back to low top Vans then High tops. Now a days its whats comfortable and a good price. DC, Vans, Etnies.
Has to have good foot support, and decent sole. I love old school Vans, but they do not have enough support and I'm flat footed. So in time my feet start to hurt even from riding in them.

Puma GV specials or California... super comfy and grip real good...

Old school vans for pose value only, they are very poor quality but look coooool as...

Bren.

DC skate shoes
Nike Dunk SBs
Adidas Attitude Double Wide

One of these next:
Adidas Decades (with that name, c'mon)
Adidas Nyquists
Loteks
Maybe Vans No Skools

Right now, those low Pumas in the pic. Previosly hitop Vans. Back in the day VSW suede hitops, turquoise or just about any Nike mid/hitops. It's unbelievable how fast a sole wears just by riding flatland.

Vans BITD, now DC shoes, a little more padded on top but nice and stiff on the bottom

Hey FreeEnterprise, nice suite! <laughs> These pics are great... 2FRESH, are you actually holding the camera and rolling? Sweet!

Timo, great pic, love the shadow!

I've thought about taking a pic that way, yours turned out sweet. I need to try that.

ADIDAS!

Florida Style Baby.


Flip-Flop's all the way.

BITD I wore just about every shoe, except Vans. Just didn't like them. I really didn't care for the shoes the bmx & skate companies were putting out. I rode Converse All Star, Vision hi-tops, Airwalk hi-tops (with lace savers) and really didn't like any of them because of not enough padding. So I wore Reeboks, Nikes, & Adidas a lot more.

THEN.......

Vision came out with, what we called, DV8s & DV9s. These were more like basketball shoes with velcro and a sued lace saver. Those shoes were the bomb!!

So, getting back into riding, it seems like hardly any bmx shoe co. makes a hi-top. I've tried Etnies and Orchid, hated them both, no ankle protection. So, I did a search on ebay and found some vintage NOS Vision black hi-top DV8s, they call them 1400 series now, and that is what I wear when I ride. All the little kids love them. They are truely the best shoes I've ever worn for riding.

Glenn, Ironhide, thanks.
Yes, i was actually holding the camera on my left hand while rolling in the halfpacker position. I almost bit the camera's strap in two while going into the trick (camera was hanging from my mouth..) i would've appreciated a spare hand handing it to me and i was really nervous not to drop it.
Believe me, i tried every possible variation to get into halpacker with a live camera on board but none of them worked like the now patented "insane biting caveman method". I know, i'm weird. That's what the confused looking basketball players probably thought too. Enough of offtopic, continue. Thanks.

BITD and today...I sported Chucks...every now and then I ride sporting retro Jordans since they are in abundance these days!
