Which do you guys prefer low or mid? I am looking at the Nike Air Morgans Wake shoes. I have found them in both mid and low and im not sure which to get. _________________ Check out my band Life On Repeat.

i like the byerly 3 mid's. the nike mid's seem like high tops or something a rapper would wear. _________________ "I said take me to the sea, cause that is where I want to be. I said take me to the sea and let my mother bury me." Buck-0-Nine |

I like mids, help keep your ankles from getting bit by the grip tape. |

i dont see the point in making a "wake" shoe and then stuffing it full of padding... _________________ When it rains, it pours. |

worst shoe for wakeskating= ugp. it's a great idea having the inner once piece, but it's uber thick and holds water. some folks enjoy a heavier/padded shoe. i personally like byerlys better than my nike wake shoes(the orange ones). the braatas are awesome feel and everything but sometimes hurt the tops of my feet. i'd say get some byerly 3's many of which are on sale at buywake.com or just find a middle ground skate shoe you like. _________________ "I said take me to the sea, cause that is where I want to be.

Same reason why they put padding in bindings and boat seats for that mater.
Yes they're going to get wet and yes they're going to be heavier but a bit of comfort goes a long way |

my wakeskate shoes have no padding. They're still super comfy and they don't hold water so my feet feel light as a feather _________________ When it rains, it pours. |

For the Nike Air Morgans Wake shoes, I am more preferred to mid high shoe. It is more passion, and if you are after on the comfort than a low shoe might be for you. _________________ My Cool Crocs Shoes |
