There are lots of wake skatingshoes in the net. You just Google some and voila, you will find some stores that could help you getting a pair of shoes. Some brands like Adidas would be a good choice for you.

You can find some styles of the Nike 6.0 Braatas online for $40. I just picked up my second pair. Very Happy

7 bucks at walmart and you'd never be able to tell the difference between these and 6.0 braatas besides the fact that they dont float Wink

Gnarly Dancer 42, I took your advice and went looking for $7 walmart shoes and got the slip ons thinking thats what you were talking about ... lol Didn't realize they have felt on the bottom until my grip tape was covered in it. And the soles came out in 1 boat trip. Mad

I just got in a pair of those orion blue Braata's for the boat only. I <33333 them.

ShutItDown, the slip ons are still good, you just gotta wear them down past the felt and get to the rubber. i never had a problem with the in soles falling out, but you can just take some from your old skate shoes and throw them in there and it works great Wink

how is the sizing on the braatas ive heard they are slightly larger? or smaller? i donno does your size run the same? i want to get a pair my mavrks are dieing on me.

-=AlexXx=-, It all depends on how you want them to fit. My Mavrks are 10.5 and my Braata's are 10. I could go to 9.5 in my Braatas if I wanted to but my toe would be slightly touching and I don't find it comfortable. I'd say a safe bet is a half size smaller.

-=AlexXx=-, I wear 9.5 in everything and my toes got a little wiggle room in my braatas

You can also check in eBay. There are many affordable skating shoes in this website. I actually bought my mine there.
