What is the best way to tie skater shoes, I just got a new pair and everyone ties different shoes different ways.  Does anyone have an opinion on this subject

I'm not sure about the other ways, but i ended up tieing then so the laces ended upon the inside, so the bowtie thingy wasn't on the outside.. i think it looks weird that way... and I laced them so they're lines not crosses...

you should get real freakin stilettos...Not the gay boot/sneaker imitation heels...don't ever refer to them as stilettos again...ew....stilettos are a nice looking skinny heel...and to the club, huh? you gonna borrow a fake id to get into da club girl?!

put on a pair of mid calf white thick socks / thick wool ones work also.  wrap once from the bottom to the top without too many creases with duct tape, then place an old inner sole from one of your old shoes and wrap again with more duct tape.  that's what i'd do if you didn't have to have certain regulations or email me and my friends in houston will tell me how to get them or they may even have an extra pair

Bro...ditch that antique and grab a new onw.  Fit, Hoffman, and a few others make great completes...check danscomp.com for some more...AVOID Freeagents.  Easterns completes are good also.

I don't know about when the first came out, but when I think Reebok Classics I remember a man I used to work with. He only wore them and nothing else. When they started to go off the shelves he bought as many as he could find. He had a closet of them, and he wore them out pretty fast too. I wonder if he still has any and if not what is he wearing now? Funny what a shoe can make you think of lol.

Plz, get better running shoes... I have seen your shoes...they are like years and years old and not well made...Save up the money and buy decent shoes..it makes all the difference. I have to buy news ones too since my knees are starting to hurt when I run.

i haven't skated many blanks but i thought the blank decks from www.ccs.com are really good. they're cheap and they're really light. i dont know about durability though but i liked the one i skated.

DONT FREEZE THEM!!\ni suggest you keep them in the box.  Either that, or put it in a ziplock bag.  Put a couple packs of silica (that stuff that says "DO NOT EAT!")  Don't let it touch the leather, keep it from touching the shoe.  Especially for your V's, put the silica on the sole, to prevent yellowing of the clear sole.  You should keep it in a dry place, w/ little sunlight.  I would recommend your closet.  If you prefer to keep it in the box, take out the tissue paper, because it speeds up yellowing.

Although they are some sweet shoes, I would just suggest going and buying a pair of DC's \nDC's have always worked for me, and I stay by them\nThere cool looking shoes and last for a long time\nMacbeths are just for looks I wouldn't buy them for skating...

DO NOT EVER USE ONE of those peices of crap. They do a really really bad job. I've even seen buddies who have tried them and their skate got stuck in kind of crooked and it totally wrecked their blade.I've also seen where the machine wouldn't stop and it ground the blade right down to almost nothing. If you really need to get an edge on your blade and you can't have them done, carry an edging stone in your bag. You can buy them at every hockey supply store and you just run them along the side of your blade to give you a bit more of an edge on them. DON'T EVER use one of those stupid machines. Unless you can afford to buy a new pair of skates the next day.

If your foot were injured would you be allowed to wear a flip flop or something like that? I would be honest with your supervisor. Apologize, explain how dumb it was, but could they let you wear a flip flop until the tattoo heals. Your supervisor would probably understand that more than you calling out the rest of the week or constantly running to the bathroom to check on your tattoo.Most of my bosses would appreciate the honesty. Give it a shot all he do is say no. Around here they would comply as long as it did not go against any OSHA codes. If you still have to where sneakers try putting Vaseline on it before putting your shoe on. You might need to buy new sneakers later but your tattoo won't keep rubbing against dry sneaker.

tape the toe to the toe next to it. wrap some tissues around the whole thing and dont tie your shoe too tight. you'll be ok as long as you go easy on it. i took karate for a long time, and broke the same toes several times. its sucks. painful, but not life threatening.

I have a pair they are size 12, mission team skates form 2004. They are worn, but when I was playing in them they always performed awesomely. Check them out, the only problem is that they are a more stiff skate made with carbon fiber and high grade leather. If you are not used to wearing skates these are not the ones for you. Also, instead of a skate with shock absorbers look at skates with a wheel diameter of 80mm+ (even 80 is small now). You will go faster and ride easier.

See and here i thought it was just me!!!! I tried watching figure skating Tuesday-- THREE PAIRS in an HOUR, with 4 minute programs each. That's ridiculous!!\n\nThis doesn't answer your question since i don't know his/her email, just wanted to share my agreement and support. Please post the email if you find it, i'd love to write a complaint as well.

I do it sock sock shoe shoe. No particular reason why, and I don't see any advantages between methods.

I have a pair of disco skates that look like they dropped out of the 70s (wait! they did!) That I begged and begged my mom for. These were like $80 skates...and that was alot of money back then. She finally made some sort of a deal with me (If I met such and such conditions, she'd buy me my skates...don't remember what it was, but knowing her, it probably had to do with a combition of making honor roll, keeping my room clean enough for her to find the dresser to put laundry away in, and a birthday present) and those skates were like..on my feet constantly. I loved them! I was also the youngest of the "big kids" though, and pre-skates, they were always yelling at me to keep up. With those magical skates on though, I was as tall and as fast as all of them! I loved them! I still have them. I want to get them rebooted so I can actually wear them comfortably.
