To get the shoes or no.

Ok I have a pair of cheap, super sale Tosh emericas that I was going to skate in. Now, I only paid aboud 25$ shipped for them, and I just found the dvs dresden in royal blue mesh for $30 and they actually have my size (14 Shocked

) The emericas have no mesh at all, we just got them because they were real cheap and my size. Should I get the royal blue dresdens for 30. The worst part about the tosh's are that they are a nasty tan color. So, if I got the dresdens id have an extra pair of shoes, but do I really need the mesh?

provin1327, i have ridden in dresdens before and theyjust feel wayyy to light. i like having a heavily padded shoe with a bit of weight to it. you can ask anyone i ride with, they always comment about how heavy my shoes are. problem is, if you only have one pair of shoes the emericas will not dry out very quickly.

^^ yea thats what im woried about, and I HATE being heavy when I skateboard. I cant skate with a hoody on or anything, I need to be nice, comfy, and loose. So I think I should get them, the color is a little wierd though for my green vest and black shorts. Its a good price though, they are $75 shipped on zappos, and only 35 on here.
