So basically you are saying Nike’s cost more than airspeed because of the science they put into it. The Nike SB Blazers I just finished skating didn’t last half as long as my bro’s airspeed mids. There really aren’t any new scientific breakthroughs in skate shoes, people still prefer a classic vulcanized sole over an air filled puffy shoe made from pillows to comfort your feet hahaha. Not sure if you knew this or not, but airspeed are produced by nike from athe same materials and cost the same amount to produce as their SB line. My next pair of shoes will be VOX!!!

I’ve been skating and riding bmx since I was 8 (1988), when people thought it was lame. Me and my brother put blood sweat and tears into it; broken bones, rebuilt knee and all the yummy bumps and bruises. Grew up poor, and all I had to skate in were terrible Airwalks, a so called “real” skate shoe. Once I started working and could afford to spend money on quality built shoes with real science and tech gone into their creation, I bought a pair of Jordans. Some of the best shoes ever. Now, I skate in 6.0 Dunks, 6.0 Air Mogans, Addidas Stan Smith 2’s, Nike Air Indees, and yes Jordan PHLY Legends (still the best skate shoe in my opinion). Why? For the same reason you will not see modern basketball players wearing Chucks. Why? Because they are built with the movement and stability of toes, ankles, achilles tendon and knees. Why? becaue their classic styling still looks better than any other garbage on the market.

Say what you will, but these shoes cost 80$ because of all the science and tech that has gone into their making. Whereas a copycat pair of DC or DVS or ect. sell for the same price with half the quality; last half as long and are not as comfortable. Oh, and please stop the nonsense about marketing, Because DC, DVS, Etnies sold thier souls to MTV in the form of Bam and the rest of the JackAss crew, Rob & Big, and so on and so forth. Don’t demonize Nike for the crap that you praise other companies for. For every swoosh you see at a skate event, I bet you’ll see 1000 DC’s (and Nike doesn’t employ street teams to waste paper and put flyers and junk all over peoples cars which eventually just end up as litter like these other companies.)

If you think Nike sucks, fine. More power to ya; but how about you boycot Etnies when the poorly manufactured toe seperates from the sole. And don’t complain that Nike has factories in asia cuz they have factories in the US as well. Oh, and Etnies are made in China too.

It is funny you mention that, how many Nike ads are there in Sports Illustrated? Let me save you time…None!!! They are buying their way into our industry through our media while turning their backs on the sports media that made them what they are…

Dude, I’m so tired of seeing Nike 6.0 ads all over the surfworld. At least disquise yourself as Hurley brand so we don’t all feel like sell-outs everytime we open a surf mag and see swooshes all over the place. I support the don’t-do-it nike boycott all the way. BTW, you should put up a facebook page without the profanity so more people will take this seriously.
