I imagine we may get a bit of hate with this post as people can be really touchy with their Skate shoe tastes and collections. But after some mild arguments and a few beers and tears we have our list. Enjoy.

First of the rank is the Huf Galaxy - Black with the Tanned bottoms. Worn and loved by Jeff here at dope kicks. Torn them to death and they are still kicking (bit stinky though).

 

Second is the Rowley pro. Great looking shoe and Vans and skating go together like beers and beer goggles. Good luck keeping these puppies clean.

 

Thirdly is the Stefan Janovski Zoom. Practical to both skate in and tear it up on the dance floor.

 

Next up is the Steve Caballero half cab by Vans. I must admit it would of been sacrilegious if we did not include this pair in the list.

 

 

As with the Half Cabs above. We had to include the Chuck Taylor All Stars in the black and white. It has been around decades and still will be for many more to come.

 

Vision Street wear had to get a mention here. Classic brand in skateboarding and these black suede joints are right on point.

 

The Eric Koston 2 is not just a fresh sneaker in the skating word, it is now a cult classic with loads of sneaker heads. It’s clean design is a sure shot.

The Adidas Busenitz had to be on this list. Another favourite of ours and impossible to ignore.

 

The most heated debate was about including the Globe Mahalo. Globe defo needed to be represented in this list, so this is the one we went with. End of.

 

Lastly, and my personal favourite of the list is the Adidas Seely Cup. Just look at them, they are fresh to death and can with still be wearable after months of heavy skating. Don’t sleep on the Seely Cups.
