my top five skate shoes of all time:
01: sal 23 (etnies or es, doesn't matter)
02: es accell (preferably in brown)
03: lakai staple (longest lasting skateshoe i've ever had)
04: vans chukka boot (well you shouldn't land a kickflip primo down some stairs wearing these, learned it the hard way)
05: airwalk enigma (first shoe to be cut off to be low-top)#
ps: loved the lakai mj choclate ltd to death (http://www.flickr.com/photos/25120845@N08/3196068210/)
