These are good shoes. I haven’t used them for skateboarding yet, I will once I finish my Es Quattro.

I love these shoes. I think it’s great that y’all are doing these re-issues. I’m stoked these are vegan. I’ve been liking all the vegan color ways that you guys do. I got the Muska as well, in the sand color. The only thing I really have a gripe about is the durability of the sole. I just feel like these sole wear out really fast compared to the last shoes I was wearing, which were the DC Kalynx. Even so, you guys are really the only ones doing the sick, vegan color ways, but I would say that it would be cool for the 197’s to be released in a vegan color way. Also I couldn’t find the Quattro in a vegan color way. I know they had the sand color before, but those were sold out online. That vegan suede really holds up, and I just wish there was a vegan suede color way of all the shoes, really. It’s just long-term a lot more sustainable to be using man-made materials. It would be nice for me to be able to skate a consistently available vegan model. Really though I like the chunky shoes and the Sophisto is not chunky enough. I’ll say it again, but the Quattro would be good in a vegan color way because I just feel like that’s one of the most perfect silhouettes. It reminds me a little bit of the legacy 98 slims, which are my favorite shoes from DC and I’m pretty upset that they discontinued them. Thanks for killing it for all these years. I just watched Menikmati the other day! ✌️

TWO NINE 8 is a classic, great work bringing these back, Es!

its not the sti insole in the picture as advertised instead its some other one and it puts a lump at the center side of your foot instead of keeping it a flat like all the other insoles . be ready to change your insoles unless you want a lump under your foot or hopefully get the right one as advertised. Disappointed on that and my brown accel ogs are the same size but look different and have a different material feel so i somehow got shoes that are from two separate boxes or batches which is very annoying and makes them noticeably look and feel odd. my pair of black accel OGs came with glue/rubber coming up the right side of the shoe making it malfunctioned and looks like its missing material so it sucks to have those problems out of box. i usually love Es but so far this was an annoying experience! hopefully yours will be better and i hope that es will reach out to me. Also what happened to the good days of atleast getting laces with new shoes? no extra laces is one thing but spending $180 and not even getting one sticker either. come on!

Love the accel and these reissues feel great straight out the box, but,.... No STi insoles as described. Good shoes but expect cheap, two day insoles.

Nice

Comfortable,classicccc🤘

Super hyped to skate this classic silhouette. Shoe performs great. One thing I will say is some extra laces would be nice for this shoe. Blown out 2 already and had to swap for some randoms. Aside from that package came clean and the nostalgia is juicing me.

The only shoe I own more than 1 pair of. Love rocking the throwback shoes of my high school days.

If you want a shoe that gives off that 90s to early 00s feel that isnt too chunky, these shoes are amazing, very durable and comfortable especially while riding a skateboard.
