LOL! Not exactly accurate... I'd buy the Adidas God Mode if I could :D

Are you going to mod them at all, because they look like pretty sweet all-around athletic shoes.
I really don't shred much anymore and I still have 2 pairs of Lavers. If I'm in the rare mood to freestlye I'll most likely use my Adidas. I figure I'll post the Nikes to see if anyone else would want to try out different equipment. As I mentioned earlier they're great fow how I play and what I play; hacking and squares, could be good for net and shred IMHO.

If you go to the Adidas Webpage and enter the sakateboarding area and then view the products there is a nice pair of white and green Stan Smith shoes that look like they could work pretty good. Sorry that I can't find a picture.

enter their webpage and look for the shoe called the "bleacher". I have seen better up close pictures of these where they look almost like a cross of the laver & quantum. The fabric depends on the color, but the white color is a good looking mesh.

Asics GT-2110

I modded the instep by taking off the plasticy material that you see on the outside. It helped inside stalls and clipper stalls a LOT!

I did a lace mod, but it probably doesnt do much to help.

Flat toe area makes for good toe stalls.

Until I get my Lavers on Christmas, these are my shred shoes of choice!

If you look really closely, keeping the toewalls intact/on the shoe is a pretty important part of the overall integrity. Those shoes look like they'd be a bitch to mod, too.

eliminating the toe walls and losing integrity is for people who let their shoes outsmart them :wink:

Merrills. I have no idea what model, but the entire shoe is that mesh accept for the heal and rubber toe. These were my first shoes.

??? Does this work? The black colourway doesn't look good, but the white/orange looks alright... It comes in 2.5!
