Man, mine aren't those. are the other soles just not grippy enough or is it just me?

I like my own Nike SBs. Comfy and grippy. used them with bmx superstar plastic pedals.

Nike SB shoes have a very soft sole and are quite comfy. They are expensive though...


Some of the best shoes I've owned (for skate and bike) have been Vans SK8 highs. The waffle sole pattern locks into platform pedals and the stiff/thin sole lets you feel the pedal.

No i dont think they are horrible. I think the shoes are just used with different types of pedals. For me, the i feel that the SBs work best with pedals like Deitys or Dartmoor pedals. But they totally suck when paired with Wellgo or any of the similar design or pin arrangements.

Lakai manchester selects are by far the best shoe I've tried for biking thus far. They hold togeather really well, and have more grip then vans and nike combined. Plus you can get them for like 70 smakaroo's instead of the $120 pricetag of most nike's.
