what your opinion on these shoes? personally i love them. comfortable, flexable, and very light wieght. unfortunalty i just bought a new pair and i started skating pretty hard in my older pair. now i'm not the bggest skateboarder but these shoes are starting to get trashed. if you skate in this shoe what's your experience with their durability? just curious not really worried, i'm going to keep buying them until they stop making them and i can't get anymore.

I've had three pairs of the Rowley XLT's. They are not the most durable shoe I've worn but I like them the most out of any skate shoe I've owned.

Try www.sierratradingpost.com

I got my last pair from there and they were only 30 bucks. Not sure if they have any left though.

DVS Twisted Evil DVS Twisted Evil DVS

Very durable, good looking, very expensive Crying or Very sad

The Rowleys are a great looking shoe also, but I have never skated them so I wouldn't know. My Vans Distaters (circa 95) were bulletproof though Very Happy

I love the Rowley's. My favorite shoe of all time. Extremely comfortable.

I think my circa's have lasted a good while, but my Globe RMS4's are so comfy. I've never tried DC or DVS, but thinking about going with some Lakai's, anyone had any luck with them. Being that it's summer I don't skate near as much as when it's too cold to go to the lake.

vans rowleys have a really nice feel, but the soles wear down real fast.

i like the rowleys because of their simple design but i'd say i like my adio kenny andersons more, they skate just as well, look better IMO, and seem to hold up better.

I love the rowleys, bought 2 pairs for 10 dollars each. I don't know why, but for some odd reason they had 2 pairs in my size at champs for 20, so I bought them and for some odd reason the guy decided to give me another 50 percent off. It was sick.
