The 50 Greatest Skate Shoes

#50. Vans Woodstock
In the early ’90s we were introduced to a clown of a skateboarder named Simon Woodstock. His talentless efforts on a skateboard got him nowhere, but when he dressed up as a clown or in a wet suit, or hopped into the ring for a boxing match, the public loved him. He became the highest paid skateboarder of the time, and this signature model goes to show that sometimes you need to check yourself. Or maybe you don't.

Surprised these were up here instead of his next 2 models.They are more comfortable and the pair that looks like Air Jordan 19 lows is one of my favorite pairs of skate shoes ever even though it's look is familiar

as far as #4 goes, i agree. but the picture you chose is the Vans Authentic, not the Vans Era.
RyaN lOPEZ March 3rd, 2011 at 09:58 PM
no, you dumbass those are eras
smarte ramo March 4th, 2011 at 04:04 AM
Yes you dumbass that is the era
Actually... March 30th, 2011 at 07:08 AM
Era and Authentic are the same shoe, one has a padded ankle, the other doesn't. Now you can go bacj to playing Warfcraft guys

steve July 2nd, 2011 at 07:03 PM
What are you fucking retarded? In #4 it has the stitching around the collar which means it has the padded collar. Authentics dont have any stitching on the around the collar. Dumbass.

im pretty happy half cabs are number one, i was waiting for them to be placed way to high the whole way through the line up. good choice :), i skated through at least 5 or 6 pairs in my day. however im really disappointed there were none of Andrew Reynolds Emerica's. The ones two's and 3's where all fire. the all red 1's the black and grey 2's and the black 3's with the lime green inside and the little diamond in one of the lace wholes. they were fresh. looked nice and skated really well. and blazers should have been hire up, and none sb dunks. i skated tones before sb's
