Are they shoes? a type of shoes? I dont know

FROM FLIPSIDER:

Hands down, the most widely used shoe for footbag is still the Rod Laver by adidas.

Is it the best?

There is no special technology at work, like in most athletic shoes, but it's stalling surfaces are better than other shoes on the market.

• Flat insides = good Clipper stalls
• open toe = good Toe stalls
• thin mesh = feel the bag
• light weight = fast dexes

Where to buy them: WFA Catalog

The World Footbag Association has them for cheaper than most places, plus it supports footbag rather than just some random store. If you buy Lavers elsewhere, you will most likely find the leather model (LE), which need extra modifications (coming soon).

What other shoes do people use?

There are several other shoes that work at least decently for footbag. You will most likely have the best results with the Rod Laver, but if you want an alternative, here ya go:


• New Balance CT300 • Gravis Dunbar • adidas LM 3.5 • Nike Air Skylon

here some picture of lavers and other shoes that people been posting


That what they look like.

here where you can buy some at.

Also, check out Flipsider for a lot of good footbag info. It's run by Ellis Piltz (hope I spelled it right) a BAP player and a awesome guy.

When people don't know what something is, why don't they search the forum or google to find out? It's mind boggling. Lavers rock by the way.
