DVS or REEF

I've been back and forth on this for a while, which do you guys think is best? the dvs mesh dresden or the reef byerly. (also if you have them name some pros and cons)

There's like 600 topics on this. Either way, they are about the same in performance to me. I got to ride some byerly's earlier this summer and they feel the same. So just whichever one you think looks better, that's the one you should get.

Nice Picture.

IMO, the mesh Dresdens suck.
Drying factor = 8/10 (10/10 for the Ambush).
But: durability = 0/10 and support = 0/10
I'm not gay and I have no experience with high heels shoes but, damn, it's like walking with high heels Laughing

, no support at all. Laughing

Just my 2 cents though...

ive riden the byerly and to me they are to light and stiff...i ride any skate shoe from mid top dvs huffs with holes drilled into the bottom to ipath(jamacain colored ones). but ive herd the dresdens wear out quick and my friends reefs have held up for a few seasons.

I have them both, Byerlys are lighter and a little more wakeskate constructed, but the Dresdans look sick in my opinion so i think its more personal preference.

G-squadriderz, what do you mean by "a little more wakeskate constructed"?

like they have more ruber on the reefs and the dresdans are more mesh. the rubber lasts longer

Buying either will support a legit company, but I would go with DVS.

try them both on, and buy what you like best. dont follow what people here say like an F'in lemming. if you buy the reefs you support a company that puts nice thong shots in their ads, and if you support dvs, you are supporting a skate company that is branching out to wakeskating which is cool IMO.

go with the dresdens because dvs makes them and they have been making skate shoes for like ten years and i think by then they would know what they are doing
