3 things a shred shoe must have, plus a retail price

i think a tounge with with less width would be really cool... Like if the tounge was the same width as were the laceholes end... Im not sure if this will make that much of a difference, but i know it does add on some extra fabric to the inside of your shoe (making the mesh feel thicker...) Just a thought...

and having a slit on the tounge to keep the tounge from moving around, would be nice too...

I have so many thaughts of what could go into a perfect shred shoe

Im getting G-units soon, so after I use those for a while, I will post my opinions on if theyre better than lavers (in my opinion), to see what the next-gen shred shoe should have in comparison to g-units

The laver toe box w/the convenience of the Quantum + some better durability would be the shoe for me.

I'd have no problem dropping $60-100 on a pair of specialized high-quality sports shoes.

We are building the prototype right now. Once the prototype is complete, then testing it will be next. Testing will take about two months. Durability tests will take the longest. Performance and function will be tested in the first two weeks. I will post results through the testing phase. Hope this helps. Richard Abshire

You da man Richie.

Can't wait to see how they turn out.

I second that.

I have a good feeling these will be amazing shred shoes.

After modifying lavers, quantums, gunits, climacools, I am still unhappy. I have mesh camo gunits on the way, ( gunits have outlasted all my other shoes by far, on all surfaces and offer the best support).
I would be so happy to try Richie's shoe, hoping that I can just throw all of the damn shoes that I have away and stick to one.

suggestions
1. modeled after g unit., (not leather)
2. lighter,slightly smaller sole (middle ground between quantums and gunits
3. your toe box mods, with brock-mods on the inside ankle
4. Black

Being mostly a toe to toe player I liked the laver toe box the most out of the various shoes around. The unit toe box just isn't as good imo.

The perfect footbag shoe in my mind has the following:
-Laver style toe box
-G-unit style inside surface
-New balance 520/g-unit sole, lavers are way too slippery
-better shock absorption than the lavers/better insole
-Lightweight

more than happy to pay 70-80 for a quality footbag shoe.
