2005 ETNIES Skate Shoes

2005 ETNIES Skate Shoes
Black Suede with white leather symbol of the Etnites E trademark on either side. Soles are made of a composite rubber that can withstand speeds upwards of 15 mph on rough surfaces. Also has white shoes laces with another E symbol upon the intake of the shoe.

--------------------

1-29-2006 (data log entry): ETNIES are sitll hodlign strong. theyve maintained some casualties throguh "wear adn tear" but still hold well. The winter has approached and they are currently in winter-mode. I dotn knwo what this entails, but ill tell you ive never once slipped in these shoes (unless under the influence of a certain enemy I like to call alcohol).
Performance:
No Performance mods do yet but im thinking about doing some Dr. Scholls Gel inserts in order to better relieve the understeer issue.
Interior:
A bit worn but still in great stock form. Look at Performance for future possibility.
Exterior:
Scrubbed and Washed monthly. Also there is a white scratch mark on the left side. It adds a nice personal touch from a previous run in with a white curb, it was a tall curb.
Electronics:
Remote Start
Suspension:
I'm thinking about doing some Dr. Scholls Gel inserts in order to better relieve the understeer issue.
Brakes and Tires:
No need for new soles quite yet, although they show some wear, i try from time to time to wear them on the opposite foot in order to even out the wear and increase the lifetime of the soles.

As far as braking goes I have invested recently in a big calves upgrade kit with floating tendons and also 4 piston ankle joints to relieve body roll.
