This is another Reader submission review.
Hi Skate Central im from Victoria B.C and
we do alot of skateboarding down here so we need shoes that will perform
right and standup to a thrashing.
The current shoe i am rockin is the Ipath
Combi. Its a hightop it has perfect arch support and a unique feel of
balance when you are on the board. These shoes go being my daily boading
routine i wear them to school and to work so they do handle daily life
very well.
They are not shoes that by any means are
going to attract alot of attention when you wear them but that isnt the
point of a performance shoe for boarding. Being from B.C we take alot of
pride in our country side and ecosystem and with Ipaths responsible
materials use makes wearing these shoes have an added bonus since i know
my carbon footprint isnt gona be as big as my real one lol.
I first wore these when longboarding too
and from work and found the control they helped me have over my board to
be over exceptional i previously wore a pair of Element shoes and found
them to be a vanity piece not made for boarding just using a boarding
companies name to make you look cool. I have had these shoes and have
worn them on a daily basis with boarding school and work all packed into
each day for the past 4 months and the worst thing thats happened to me
is my laces have broke wich ipath replaced for me.
If you are looking for a performance
driven shoe not a vanity piece please look into getting these shoes if
you live in B.C come down to the skate parks around 3-5pm and you will
see more then one person wearing these or another model of ipaths. Lets
just say any cons (i cant think of any) are out weight by the good a
million times over. i originally bought these because of the
environmental aspect of them and wanting to try a new brand and now
these are a shoe and brand i will never switch from for my daily
boarding needs.
Thanks Skate Central for your blog and
your info it helps knowing what other people’s opinions are since more
often then not you expect one thing and get a totally different thing
when it comes to skateboarding shoes.
