they last longer, they're a very durable tennis shoe and are much less expensive than quantums.

bought for £11/$18 off ebay (including p&p!)

just finished modding and added new laces and sports insoles

they are 2 sizes smaller than my old ones, nice and snug and a lot lighter, MAGIC!

Sweet lacing job. Is it any good for freestyle?

Thanks a lot Cale.

I think the lacing helps, it's how i have my quantums laced...

I don't really use toe walls, but it's nice to have a bit of help further up the foot. It also makes it easier to evenly tighten the shoe.

Here are my shred shoes:
Back row left to right are Royal blue Rod Lavers.
Next are my Quantum2s with no toebox on them. Thanks....Daryl "Genzu Blades" Genz for the idea.
Front row left to right are my leather Rod Lavers with zebra stripe I drew on them. Then are my favorite Rod laver the nylon mesh Ruby Red Slippers!!! There no place like home!!! :roll:
My girlfriend thinks I'm a dork.............:lol:

My Shred Shoes!! :D


Image




In chronological order as well...

top left: A pair of modded skin tight Vans (before I knew better). I learned my first around the worlds, illusions, and mirages in these babies.

top mid:My first pair of Lavers bought just over one year ago.

top right: My first Quantums. The Q2s. Loved these shoes. Worn down so much they are pushing sandal status. :wink:

bottom left: My second pair of icy white Lavers. Brokka modded just in case I find a random circle somewhere.

bottom middle: My favorite shoes so far; the Q3s. Light and durable so far. Still working these beasts out. Hit my first 6 ADD (P.S. Whirling Rake)

bottom right: My latest pair of shred shoes. Camo Mesh GUnits. I found them for 50$ at 6am.com and I couldn't pass it up. They are tough for me to shred in as they are a bit too thin for my feet but they are good shoes. Hit my first Tomohawk in these about 2 months ago and BSOSed it at that.

A year in the making...more shoes to come.



:D

I bought them about 6 months ago on eBay. They where "buy it now" at $50. It is the only pair I seen in Royal Blue so far. I went ahead and paid the extra cost for the shoes. I think they are worth a little more......so didn't mind paying.

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I never stopped believing! I never stopped believing that I will ever find a pair of plaid Lavers that fit my small man feet, and here it shows up on ebay! It was worth every freakin' penny! :cry: :P

MarQuezo! If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have gotten these shoes!

Are you KIDDING me waylon! You were the person I was bidding against?

I was so tempted to keep on bidding, it could have been terrible! Perhaps I could have saved you money, if I knew. Glad you were the one who got them though,

Oh..Thank you for your very, very generous words in the "bags I've made" thread. That meant alot to me,

WHAT?! Small world Jay! The bidding was pretty intense! :P I was hanging with the NYFA crew in the evening when the auction was about to end, and I was really worried about being outbidded. You almost beat me by a few dollars, too. :lol:

I'm glad you were the other bidder pitting against me. It sort of makes that auction a little more significant when you finally know who you're going against. :)
