Good Points

Very stylish, grippy bottom

Bad Points

NO LACE GUARDS, horrible ollie toe construction, falls apart in a week, gets foamy on bottom when grip wears away at an alarming rate, no padding on insole, tongue straps lose tension and becomes pointless, cost sucks for what you receive.

General Comments

Vans Rowley XL2 are over $70 after tax at pac-sun. Don't buy if you plan to skate in them. what's the point after that then? Very sweet looking, and grippy on the bottom. The positive points stop there. Everything else sucks and vans needs to get their act together. lace guards are one of my pet peeves. terrible if the shoe is without. their entire fall 04' collection doesn't have lace guards. The ollies construction I've noticed is shared with other shoe companies such as DVS and their shoe MILAN. falls apart. My pair are currently shoe-gooed like mad. they lost my business. Also very annoying when you have to change the laces every time one tears. they're becoming a lousy company. My next pair of shoes would be I paths.

    Yes, indeed, these are very expensive shoes, here in manila they cost a lot.

    Although they are very light, and has a nice board feel and slip-free grip (courtesy of the vans waffle grip) they are kind of weak. Of course, when you make a shoe light, you sacrifice it`s durability.

    Buy Saviers, all you want in a skate shoe, Savier has it. Hidden lace loops, a toe cap that will last and no slip bottom, plus really comfortable.

    Check out the Savier Brian Anderson 2 and the Staba.
